Now who was it that said there is no way he would get bail after the verdict? That it just won't happen.
LOL I can see the argument now - well it is different with CH. I don't think so. We know he will get a jail sentence; Nel has at least managed to squeeze that out.
I would like to have seen what the bail conditions are. It seems to me that nothing has been changed. He can go abroad, drink, etc. Did I miss something?
From the Guardian. What an ambassador the International Paralympic Committee will have. Hope there is a large and vocal backlash against this.
Craig Spence, the IPC’s director of media and communications, told BBC Radio 5 Live: “Oscar’s done a great deal for the Paralympic movement, he’s been an inspiration to millions, but obviously his priority now is to see [what] the judge decides. And then if he wishes to resume his athletics career then we wouldn’t step in his way, we would allow him to compete again in the future.”
UUGGGHHHHH.......:furious:
She asks Roux to speak to the Uncle, to keep an eye on his nephew? SERIOUSLY? No accountability for Oscar, just tell Uncle Arnie to keep him in check?
She seems to think of him as if he is a child!
I said it. And standby it. If it was murder, he wouldn't get bail. Masipa even mentioned that as it was a section 7 offence not 5 or 6 there is onus on the state. Plus we were taking about bail pending appeal.
Anyway, hope bragging doesn't give you too much pleasure, it's not healthy. I'm just still dumbfounded he literally got away with murder.
All our hopes now pinned to sentencing.

Ironically, it's OP's own version that he though someone else was in the toilet - that he was defending himself against. 4/4

Doesn't make sense: Reeva being in the bedroom doesn't exclude the possibility that there was someone else in the toilet 3/

She went on to say - what doesn't make sense - that he couldn't have forseen he could kill anyone, because he thought RS was in bedroom. 2/

People are saying that Masipa asked the right question: "Did OP forsee that he could kill the deceased or anyone". That is correct. But 1/
J: Mr Roux - pls speak to uncle of the accused. It's essential there aren't any further complications...
Adjourned

I think that you are confusing this continuation of bail "until sentencing" with an application for bail "pending appeal," which will come after he is sentenced. I don't remember any discussion here about him remaing free pending sentencing. Am I right?
