But his nearest neighbors only heard a man screaming and they believed it was Oscar. They heard no woman. Some of the screaming woman neighbors only came forward after the case against Oscar was made in the media.
Hmmm ..
The problem for the state is that with a bench trial they must only argue the law as the judge will not be swayed by emotion and questionable "ear witnesses" as a jury would.
But the immediate neighbours didn't hear the shots (other than perhaps one of them heard one shot) so they have to have woken up after Reeva had been killed. One really cannot expect to hear screams from a dead woman.
