I'm puzzled by the State's strategy with respect to the murder charge.
Setting aside witness testimony for the moment, I wish to establish a broad strokes list of the State's Forensic & Material evidence.
All are invited to contribute, comment and point out missing or incorrect information.
State's Forensic & Material evidence
Mangena (ballistics expert)
1. Findings OP was either on his stumps with gun extended at shoulder height or on his prosthetics with gun at elbow height. Chose stumps because… ??? (anyone remember the reason given ?)
2. Findings on the sequence of which bullet caused which hole in the toilet door and caused which wound on Reeva's body.
Saayman (pathologist)
3. Findings Reeva stopped breathing moments after being shot.
4. Findings Reeva had eaten 2 hours or less before her death.
Vermeulen (forensic chemist)
5. Findings OP was either on his stumps or on his prosthetics when bashing the toilet door with the cricket bat. Chose stumps because trying to line up the bat with impact marks on the door whilst on prosthetics resulted in a swinging motion and posture that felt unnatural to him.
van der Nest (blood spatter analyst)
6. Nothing noteworthy.
Sales (IT analyst)
7. Nothing noteworthy.
Moller (IT analyst)
8. Findings of messages from Reeva that showed OP could be volatile, angry, mean, scary, etc.
9. Findings of messages exchanged between Reeva and OP the day leading up to the events.
10. Detailed billing of OP's 0020 iPhone
11. Detailed billing of OP's 4949 iPhone
12. Detailed billing of Reeva's 5353 iPhone
Unknown source
13. Detailed billing of Silverwoods estate security landline telephone
… was the detailed billing of Baba's cellular phone used in Court or only OP's detailed billing of 4949 phone ?
… are we missing anything ?
