No he wasn't. I urge you to go listen again. It was specifically about a kick mark.
No they deal with more than one mark.

BBM - that's incorrect. It was 20cm.I'm not aware that Mr Dixon ever said that he used someone the same height as OP? In any case, I think it can be concluded from the pictures (despite the 10cm difference) that it would be extremely unlikely that anyone would have been able to see a man on stumps in the top half of the window, don't you?
They did at least make an attempt to show this to the judge. Again the PT elected not to show any information to the contrary. The judge may well prefer this to the alternative of nothing.
I could spend quite a while discussing the evidence that the SAPS and PT have purposely not included because it weakens their case. I won't though, as it doesn't surprise me and is only to be expected.

THIS. Its obvious really when you stop thinking so hard about it.
A - hip wound
B - Upper arm
C- web of finger
D-head wound
This is the order of wounds D thinks took place.
So true, and it amazes me how people are overlooking key facts like this just because of a few disputed bangs.
If we raise the person by 20 cm and then raise the camera to the level of the Stipp's bedroom it would make a huge difference, no?
So she lay dying for 20 minutes? Or are the Stipps lying about hearing shots at 3?
You are saying our theories here are all fabricated? Not based on evidence or witnesses? Why bother coming here then?
In his bail affidavit, OP says nothing about talking to Reeva. In his plea explanation, OP says he "had shortly before spoken to Reeva" - nothing about whispering. So there's his testimony, where he does say it, I can't remember how many times.OP : I have never said I whispered to reeva
LIAR, he said it half a dozen times both in bail plea and in testimony
etc
hope anyone here with a qualifying cable subscription is aware that ESPN3 has been streaming this entire trial in HD
The truth is we don't know. This is why I suggested it would have been ideal for the state to show some evidence to back up the witness claims.
They had every opportunity to do this, but chose not to.
The description from Dixon suggests there would be very little pause between shots 1 and 2 as shot 2 was made whilst Reeva was falling.
Oh I remember that. There were 2 other mothers who ended up in jail because of him too. And then there's good old Freddy Patel who was the pathologist at Ian Tomlinson's postmortem. The one the police liked to have on hand. Being struck off isn't enough. They should do jail time. If they knew there were serious repercussions for misleading, they might think twice.I agree, without Roy Meadows, Sally Clark wouldn't have spent 5 yrs in jail and would be alive today![]()
I have to say, on a more serious note, given what has been demonstrated in this trial about the recklessness with guns, the violent incidents and this tragedy itself, I fail to see how it was in the interests of public protection to give him bail in the first place. I have to admit, I have little knowledge of the bail proceedings but I find it strange that a man of 27 has been involved in all these negative incidents (quite apart from the murder itself). I have 2 boys now men around the same age who live life to the full and they have never been involved in anything like what OP has gotten himself into.
Oh god he's basically saying oscar aimed now and steadied the gun after the second shot. Not good for defence. Oh my.
BBM - here you go zwiebel. Godfrey Sefwayi Sengwane.Was the amputee in court next door, due to be sentenced for killing his wife this morning, given life? I just saw a link and lost upthread and lost it, making a post. I can't recall how to spell his name to google.
I remember thinking it was good he finally came clean, and admitted what he'd done, and that he was too scared to say at first. I suppose that's the most you can ask for, when someone has taken a life.....
The witness testimony, under oath, as to what they saw IS evidence. It then becomes the defense interest to challenge and DISPROVE the evidence. Which they tried to do with sneaky smoke and mirrors. EPIC FAIL. If it goes unchallenged, and Roux saying it's not right is NOT evidence no matter the how forcefully he says it, then it is accepted as the truth of the matter and the Judge gives it the appropriate weight.
No I'm not saying the Stipps are lying or that they didn't hear shots at 3:00 - I'm not sure their time is precise, and if it is then I agree there's difficulty making sense of how long she could have lived after the headwound.
