Michell Burger, a university lecturer, makes a very good witness.
if she is a believable witness, and can convince the judge that they heard the woman's screams BEFORE the shots---GUILTY VERDICT
Especially since OP stated (in his version) that when he told Reeva to call police, she didn't respond, which I take to mean that he claims she was completely silent during the entire event, including after being shot.
Oh that's damning .. The pause between shots and Reeva screaming before gunshots too ..
An important matter--especially should there be Appeals as may be likely...
Numerous commenters at the news24.com site are saying how bad the translator is. Indeed they confirm what I thought I heard--that the witness apparently is helping the translator!
In other words, translating for the translator.
Fascinating.
I quoted where the translator said something about 'it's impossible to translate the chill the witness felt,' which I thought was odd. It will be a legal disaster if the translation is incorrect, I'd think. You can't put words in a witnesses mouth, or not translate what they say.....
