Tracking Oscars phone around the house is a bit of a chore but mildly interesting..
He uses it to ring Standar, and Baba back .. this is from upstairs, after he has 'battled' ( what an interesting word. . one could have used 'struggled, tackled, removed'.. but no .. he uses the metaphor of the soldier against the enemy )to get Reeva's quickly expiring body out of the cubicle and into the bathroom. Upstairs, still, he uses it to call Netcare.
He goes downstairs to open the door for the ambo. Does he take his phone on this trip and leave it downstairs?
He goes back up and picks up Reeva's body.. I doubt if he would be able to pick up the phone as well.
'On my way downstairs'.. Standar appears, with Clarice, he doesn't say so but she did.
then by a nose, Baba, then Stipp.
Before Stipp or Baba arrives.. Clarice has got black plastic bags from somewhere probably the kitchen , and hand towels, (small dishpolishing linen ) and has gone upstairs to get bigger towels.. ( Van Rensburg Testimony ) .. did she bring Oscars phone downstairs with her?? if so , she went into the bathroom, or the bedroom or both.
Oscar, meanwhile is trapped on the hallway tiles with Reeva.. his fingers are in her mouth , Stipp has to do a jawline maneuver to remove them, and free Oscar up. He then goes upstairs. . Did he bring his phone down with him on his return trip??
( After he has shot Reeva, he has been down the stairs, ( open the door) back up the stairs, down the stairs, (Reevas body ) back up the stairs and down the stairs. ( mystery trip) .
but that phone is definitely downstairs now.. Clarice starts using it to ring various people... Peet Van Zyl, for example.. Oscars number came up on his dial, but its Clarice using it to ring him. Other people are dialed on this phone. Oscar rang Justin Divaris himself.
and then that phone evaporates into thin air for quite some days..
