you can guarantee it Baz - he'll do no time despite killing someone - I'm not convinced he'll even get house arrest 

I agree Pengy  

You reckon Pengy? Oh bliddy hell 

Is it wrong to say I hope OP gets what's coming to him, one way or another 

I seriously think because he's rich and his family are in with the president Jacob Zuma he's safe but I think he'll always have a target on back and some nutter may just decide to meet out their own judgement 

Pengy, do you have a link for the Dewani trial on Twitter please?

there isn't a link as such Yogz you just need to put the #Dewni in the search bar and all will pop up 

#OscarPistorius appears more relaxed today. Smiles as he greets a fan and accepts a note. Embraces his aunt Diane in the dock.

Well that was different. #OscarPistorius just strode into the courtroom, no bodyguards, no family, no fanfare, barely a camera shutter.

#OscarTrial Oscar is still up front talking to Roux and Roxanne Adams. BB

#OscarTrial Oscar squeezed past Mortimer, Batchelor and Trish Taylor to get to the dock. There was no eye contact. BB

Awkward moment as Pistorius forced to walk past his ex Sam Taylor to get into the dock. Whole court room went quiet @eNCAnews #OscarTrial

Morning 

SA shoot a Rhino = up to 70 years jail time

SA shoot a tiger = 15 years

SA shoot a girlfriend in a small toilet 4 times = *there there, you've been a silly boy*

I'm fuming he may walk from this  

so confident of that, he walked into court on his own today 

Morning your dameship 

morning Pengles 

I saw him come into court...he's probably threw his dummy out with his cousins over something

Dear Judge Masipa. Thank you for changing the law, I am a woman living in a dangerous country and despite that I was always under the impression that I wad not entitled to shoot at perceived danger. I was under the misconception that even if I encountered unwanted visitors in my own home I was legally bound to ask them to leave unless they were armed and in sight. What a huge relief to know that I can legally use lethal force to dissuade them from inflicting harm on myself or my loved ones or from helping themselves to my hard earned goods. I am also super happy that locked toilet doors and magazine racks now form part of the "threat to human life"...what a relief that I no longer have to live in constant fear of doors which as we all know pose a huge danger to us all. On behalf of all abused woman you have done them a great service and I am sure they will rest easy knowing you have their backs

Considering Masipa is supposed to be known for coming down hard on domestic abuse cases, she's folded pretty quickly on this.  The conspiracy theorists on twitter are suggesting her pension pot increased considerably recently and is in no way connected to this trial 

I never had her down as corrupt but her decision has got me wondering 

#OscarTrial Day 2 of sentencing about to start. Court official warns Judge is due to enter soon.

I definitely believe something stinks 

I think most of the legal experts in SA are astounded by her judgement 

Jesus catching sight of #Cruelladeville first thing in the morning is not good for my nerves #OscarTrial#OscarPistorius#hideyourpuppies

#OscarTrial Van Zyl confirms that it’s not unusual for sportsmen to be involved in charities. No unique to Pistorius. BB

Good morning Pengy and Dame.

Did they start early this morning?

Morning Yogz no they were a few minutes late 

As I said last night, Nel has gone straight for the reality to the charitable work - is it just normal celeb PR?

Morning Yogi  

about bang on time I think 

yes, I was saying that yesterday...he is obliged to do it 

Nel strongly suggesting that Oscar Pistorius got involved in charity because it was a good marketing move, not out of charity @eNCAnews

I must have been late then.

Nel argues that #OscarPistorius doesn't actually contribute - it comes from the sponsor MV

#OscarTrial the point Nel is pushing is that Pistorius’s charity involvement was not unique or exceptional, and aimed at self-promotion. BB

Pengy said they were late...her clocks wrong  

Nel looking to show #OscarPistorius as obedient, self-interested, corporate client rather than self-less charity volunteer.

  I and my clocks are never wrong - I'm the flipping oracle I tells ya 

calm down...I refuse to use your toilet, it's a wrong clock  

I believe some sportsmen do far more charitable work than is required by their sponsors, but I don't know whether that is the case with Oscar.

I'm liking that Nel is playing semantics using the word clever instead of saying OP is not philanthropic 

#OscarTrial Van Zyl finally admits: 'He can only blame himself.' Yes, says Nel

#Pistorius has head down in dock, taking furious notes.

given his narcissistic personality (which I personally believe he has one) I'd be erring on the side of him doing stuff that only enhances his personality and all in the glare of the press 

the money he used was not his personal money Yogi, it was an allowance he received from his sponsors to use for these events...

Nel is very good at playing semantics.
