#DewaniTrial Reporters have the states heads of argument but don't want to leave in case Traverso rules immediately....

 

[JudgeJudi]

Are you getting positive vibes? I'm not, but I haven't been here long enough. I'll be guided by you.

ETA: Traverso wanting to see senior counsel in her chambers. I don't like the sound of this.

 

[zwiebel]

I am so, so sad for Anni's family. Just like June and Barry Steenkamp, they are not going to get the answers they need....

This is just horrible to watch the state's case crumble.

Reporters seem to think judge is about to throw out the case. Seems entirely possible from her questions.

 

[PrimeSuspect]

Traverso can't hide her disgust. :/

 

[JudgeJudi]

Traverso can't hide her disgust. :/

My feeling was that she called them into chambers to say she'd already made up her mind.

Did anyone see that tweet come up, from someone with the same surname of someone very familiar from the Oscar Trial? Doesn't seem to be media so I can't post, but I did wonder if there's a connection.

 

[zwiebel]

We're back.

#DewaniTrial Back in court, Mopp going through cellphone evidence now.

Leigh-Anne! Leigh-Anne! Get out of that coffee shop right now. Court's in session.

I think it's against WS rules to copy and paste any social media, unless it's actually stuff by press; msm (mainstream media). It was just a supportive tweet for case being thrown out, by someone sharing the same surname as an assessor in the OP trial.

#DewaniTrial AM: the mobile phone evidence in itself cannot clinch the conspiracy for the state. It is an important part. #sabcnews

#DewaniTrial Adrian Mopp says the primer residue found on Qwabe's glove is not an indication that he fired the shot.

#DewaniTrial Mopp: Glove found 6 days later,the process of turning the glove inside out may have caused the residue to rest on the web area

#DewaniTrial "The positive result for primer residue is not indicative that Qwabe fired the shot"

#DewaniTrial "We respectfully submit that there are too many variables for this Court to make definitive findings"(whether MQ shot)
