I think he was a friend of his Olly 

some are thinking she's been bought/knobbled 

I don't personally - I think the State didn't provide enough evidence of pre med but I did think DE was very feasible 

ah that explains a lot .......

Judgey sounds like she is selectively believing some of OP's testimony but not all but, the bits she is using to frame her judgement suggest he's getting away with it

is it lunchtime yet? Can I nip out now?

I really can't see that Pengy...I think its more to do with money, position and hero status and I do feel he he should have been found guilty of DE, this opens the door for others to plead the same when they have intentionally murdered someone behind closed doors 

they have been on lunch for ten minutes Olly 

Doh why didn't anybody tell me

Only kidding

"@penguinoni: @JTSkyNews please tell Llewellyn Curlewis we like his choice of tie" #trendingtie

that tie will be trending before the day is out 

#OscarPistorius Lawyer @DavidDadic tells #EWN he and some of his colleagues are "stunned" that Oscar escaped murder 'dolus eventualis'

they're not the only ones 

I think most are...I wonder if peer pressure will be out on M'lady to give him some sort of reasonable sentence 

be back shortly...gonna grab a sandwich 

I'm making a chip buttie so my diet is going well 

State can appeal but can't bring new evidence. #reeva family could try civil charge if they haven't been paid off already

doubt they'll do it though 

State can appeal 

I've made wholemeal chicken...my diet is still on track this week 

#OscarPistorius @CriminalLawZA: A culpable homicide conviction can result in anything from a suspended sentence to a 15 year jail term.

what's the betting it's a suspended sentence on the grounds of all the trauma he's suffered.

Interestingly it may be the State actually applies for Appeal. Sect 310 says state can appeal if it feels court was wrong in law.

Sasha one of my SA radio friends is hoping to get Davor on his show either Monday or Tuesday so will be watching that 

"If the glove don't fit you gotta acquit" - why is this ringing in my head?

yes  after you've tampered with it 

bloody hope not, reaction over the world seems one of astonishment 

in the words of the fabulous Judge Judy  If it does not make sense, its not true 

david Dadic on eNCA now Pengy 

I'm watching - he believes Gerrie did enough for DE so could we see an appeal by the State? 

No sign of Judge returning... an unexpected, unexplained delay in proceedings. #OscarPistorius

I don't think she's in any way corrupt but this made me laugh 

I think she's ignored too much evidence and I sated that way back...so I think an appeal might come 

I bet Reeva supporters have her pinned to a wall 

haha...I don't think that's true, but do believe in pressure from elsewhere. She's ignored all the witnesses and accepted a bad witness and a proven liar, no wonder questions are being asked 

the more this goes on the more I think Barry didn't do such a bad job for Oscar   

"Shock news as R Steenkamp is found guilty of suicide by running at high speed onto bullets fired by Oscar Pistorius 

wouldn't surprise me if that was one of OPs defences that never came out!!

#OscarTrial Judge's papers have just been brought back in. We're about to start.

not so much he didn't do a bad job, more the point of how much Masipa ignored...I find it all very strange and so do all the pundits 

@GerrieNel_Not we taking it to the streets and calling a Sangoma, if that half man called Oscar win this trial. People will act

I've no idea what a Sangoma is but protest is possible translation   they've a lot of experience of protesting in SA 

Prosecution and defence lawyers called to Judge's chambers... a question of timings, or of substance, or something else?

apparently they are witch doctors in Zulu or shamans called into spiritually heal things - again that will help 

I thinks Masipa is on a sticky wicket with this judgement Pengy 

Carl turns round and winks at his brother Oscar as court waits for the Judge to return. #Pistorius  

She seems to attach weight to his reaction after the fact-crying etc.But if it was an intruder would he have cried, would he then be guilty?

given what the legal experts rather than just twittering journos are saying, I think you could be right 

I have no idea  I think we may need a doctor for Baz...she's running my phone battery flat
