I’m dying to know how this trial finishes. Botha says HvB is fast running out of funds, and an appeal to the SCA costs really big bucks. For those who haven’t followed a SA appeal before, a copy of the entire transcript has to be made available for each judge in the appeal court, plus extra copies for the lawyers, and this case is huge – much longer than Pistorius. I simply can’t begin to imagine a Legal Aid barrister picking up a trial of this length for an appeal. I can't wait to hear what Botha intends doing.
I haven’t read whether HvB's been charged with Schedule 5 (murder) or Schedule 6 (premeditated murder). It would be interesting to know that.
