[AlexUK]

Another 10 min break....and Milady looked a bit cross!

 

[Interested Bystander]

Have you got a URL for this discussion? I'd like to forward them the chart I published on my blog over the weekend. Would greatly appreciate.

I haven't got it to hand, I am afraid. I assumed it would be on the link I have already posted but it may be it is their TV program. I will see what I can find.

Roux cut that witness off so quick and got rid of her, when it looked like she was about to start talking about exactly what OP told her about the killing.....which she'd told Nel they didn't discuss?

 

[JudgeJudi]

Lost my feed. Haven't had time to catch up. Who is this lady? And did she just say that on 15 February Oscar was crying because he missed Reeva? Is she a ballistics expert?

No, just an observer of broken hearts.

It's hugely important in establishing whether OP's version is true or not, i.e. that they went to sleep at around 10:00 (or rather, he says he went to sleep around 9-10pm and Reeva was still awake at that point) .. or whether they were/Reeva was up much later than that and that they were having an argument. The PT are not only trying to get him convicted of murder, they want answers to what really happened that night, too .. Reeva's family and friends need to know what really happened, they just want the truth.

interesting to me that as you say, according to op's version, reeva was awake when he went to sleep, and she was also awake when he woke up at three am. how can he say she was ever asleep, or what she did, or what she ate, during the time he was asleep?

of course, if only he was asleep, there could be no arguing. both of them have to be awake for the pt.

 

[Forensics]

Roux calls their next witness, forensic expert Wollie Wolmarans. We adjourn to allow him to set up exhibits. BB

 

[atthelake]

Now the defence main ballistic expert Wolmerans is called. He's sat in court throughout the trial. But first, a quick break #OscarPistorius

 

[minor4th]

Finally! We get to hear from "Wollie"

 

[04009margaret]

We are 3 hrs into today's session, how much court time have we actually had today?

 

[zwiebel]

Whoop says Tom W up next and it will be 'a visual feast'.

Think they mean he won't mind being shown on screen.

 

[fox1lady]

When she said she spent five days with him?? Was that an hour a day? How long? It sounded like she spent the entire five days with him or an extended amount of time each day.

Wow, 148 people are viewing this thread. But it's so quiet.

Shhhh, I'm at work and shouldn't be on here

 

[whiterum]

I LOVE Nel....

"He shot her on the 14th, and on the 15th, he said he missed her? ":facepalm:

So do I, he is absolutely brilliant and he can certainly get the relevant point across at the right time. I could watch and listen to him all day long.

 

[JudgeJudi]

It would be far better if the DT were obliged to give the PT the witness's evidence before they appeared. It would avoid all these delays.

All the DT needed to say about her evidence was

I saw a heartbroken man, rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat ad nauseum

 

[supernovaNic]

hippity skippity days? whoopwhoop

 

[jamdog]

The defence is now essentially Lionel Hutz recalling his surprise witnesses in the Chester J. Lampwick Itchy and Scratchy case.

I see. Thank you. My bad.

 

[supernovaNic]

Anyone have any 411 on Wollie? Excellent in his field?
