After hearing Modise testify, Im more convinced than ever that, considering public sentiment (outrage), OP would seriously be safer in prison.
If Masipa lets him walk, hes gonna find out real quick hes not in Kansas anymore. Outside of Uncle Arnies house, it would be open season. His days of being hailed a hero are OVER. If he had enemies before, hes got an army of them now. Hes no doubt oblivious to the fact there are people out there as unstable as him or worse.
SA Correctional Services would have a crucial vested interest in keeping their #1 star inmate ALIVE and WELL.
The public at large has no such vested interest.
I think Roux should start negotiating locations and accommodations. LOL
I agree. So many people dismissed OP's comment to Gina as nothing, even implying she might have done something to warrant it, so hopefully they'll feel the same now Aimee is on the receiving end of the same treatment.
I am a cynic when it comes to OP. He knows Mortimer and Schulz had just left the court and it would not suprise me if OP chose to go outside to create a scene with them. I am sure he would feel it would work in his favour. There is the likelihood that Mortimer will be the next witness. If OP can cause a fracas by being in Mortimer's vicinity, he could well get Mortimer barred from court.
I agree.
Apparently the maximum sentence for correctional supervision is 3 years which I just can't imagine being an appropriate duration.
There is another option of 5 years correctional supervision where approximately the first year would be spent in prison and the remainder under house arrest. This would seem like somewhat of a compromise.
Who knows? The judge could still surprise us all.
In any case it is the 1. time in 7 months, that OP is walking out of the court at lunch time ... there must be a reason ...
That's a nice contrast to Roux, whose earlier comment to M that; 'I know you are a very important person,' cam over as sarcastic and patronising and to me, seemed he wanted to convey the opposite. Horrible and snidey.
My take (without knowing anything LOL) is something like this: Schultz and co went to sit on front benches near the Pistorii, Aimee complained (according to a BB tweet), he mouthed 'xxxx you', she started to cry.
