Marli asked that her statement not be handed up in court
Adv G: refers court to interests of society, trite law that sentencing too lightly can be just as bad as sentencing too heavily. By imposing the appropriate sentences shown to restore order in community
Adv G: even if there were no minimum sentences a sentence of life imprisonment would be appropriate. The attempted murder of Marli should be given the same sentence, refers to similarity of wounds, attack and intent
Adv G: accused remained on the phone for a lengthy period of time without giving her any medical attention or even comforting her, the attack on Marli is similar to the attack on the deceased members she survived against odds
