<Respectfully snipped>
The following is one of Judge Greenland's comments:
"In Oscars case, the State failed to prove this actual reconciliation beyond a reasonable doubt. In fact, it was not the States case that Pistorius foresaw that he was going to kill the intruder and reconciled itself to that possibility
Now what result did Oscar accept would follow ??????
a) given that he claims that he was bent on defending himself and Reeva;
b) that is such defense he was using a lethal weapon:
c) that his act of defense involved firing four (4) bullets with lethal ammo in the direction of his perceived enemy ??????????
d) that his perceived enemy was human ????
On these facts it is actually generous to talk about him having to foresee the death of a human being behind the door.
It is actually more correct to say that he fully intended to kill a person behind the door -and Judge Masipa herself had said that it was Oscars defense that he had killed Reeva by mistake thinking she was an intruder.
Only a lunatic would not understand that firing 4 shots through a door behind which there is a human or humans will result in death as a matter of probability.
The Judge seems to have been unmindful of the fact that ALL the medical experts EXCLUDED and diminution in Oscars mental capacity and appreciation of reality at the time".
Don't you just love the way Judge Greenland expresses himself.
