Finally some real justice hope it is some small comfort Reeva's family. Will time spent on house arrest count as time served towards what will be his new increased prison sentence ? If he appeals will he be taken back to prison or left on house arrest ?

Hope this is true ,but I doubt it because he would state that he is being discriminated against because of his disability . I wonder how other similarly disabled prisoners have been treated in the past ?

Sorry not an African name , just a nickname related to my shopping habits ( long story won't bother you with the details ) :-) Funnily enough though I have genuinely had lots of " take two " moments whilst following this trial ,so much so I feel I have been living in a parallel universe at...

In reply to VAL1 's post . Every time I see that picture of the pillows propped up against the headboard it makes my blood boil thinking that a judge could accept his version of events of them both being asleep from around 10.30 . Who sleeps with the pillows like that . I am still astonished by...

Don't know if this has ever been posted http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/british-mum-claims-daughters-killing-4551160 It is another terrible case of a wealthy man killing his girlfriend that I didn't know about . Her mother is using the press interest in the Reeva's death to highlight her...

Another possibility for an argument in the early hours of Valentine day could have been the fact that OP had not got Reeva a Valentine card or present ?

Someone just posted a comment on a Facebook page that there is a link to the jail time and having his bail money refunded . I don't know if this is the case .Does anyone know anything about this ? I would hate to think that the inadequate sentence has also made him financially better off and...

I totally agree . I said the same the other day . I couldn't think of what could have made it a more serious CH unless the door had been open ,but in that instance it would definitely have been murder and not CH. I would love it if someone with Legal knowledge could explain what could possibly...

He will be a model prisoner IMO to ensure he is let out at the earliest opportunity . After his court appearances he should have no problem getting round a parole board. Just adding here I feel this is really not long enough .

He could be out in 9 to 10 months !! That seems shocking to me . Not long enough .

Couldn't agree more . This is why I hope for a tough sentence . There will be more deaths in similar circumstances if not IMO

Good morning everyone from a very blustery Channel Islands. Hoping for some sort of justice but sadly not expecting it . A big big thanks to all for your running commentary . Without it I don't think I could have followed this trial as watching it live always elevated my blood pressure .

Thanks for your reply . I always feel so sad when I see Reevas parents and family and wish as much peace as is possible following such a tragedy. There composure during all this has been amazing . It is not surprising that Reeva seemed to be such a lovely person .

It is sad the full truth has eluded them ,lets hope some sort of justice is dished out. Do you think that in the very beginning they thought it could have been an accident ?
