#OscarTrial Vergeer: says prisons in general dont cater for people with disabilities, but can’t rule out that there are some that can. BB

We're going round in circles. I'm bored rigid, so I'm going to go now. I'll catch up later.

he's not been happy all day  he's done a lot of head shaking

Nel: "You spoke about global open cells. There's a difference between that and single cells." #Pistorius

#OscarTrial Nel taking Vergeer to task for sniggering at one of his questions. BB

Oopsie!  she offended the honourable court 

I'll spam if you spam this afternoon - I have to go at about 3pm hope it's finished by then 

see ya Yogz 

she was sneering at Nel...swings and roundabouts 

#OscarTrial Vergeer provided figures related to awaiting trial, and not sentenced as is being dealt with in this context. BB

#OscarTrial Vergeer concedes that sentenced prisoners are sometimes kept in single cells. BB

Nel reiterates that all her evidence on prisons is hearsay, except for Krugersdorp prison that she saw inside #oscartrial

so this part of her testimony is worthless because she's not seen prisons except one and she gets her data off the internet 

Laters Yogi 

like most of their witnesses...Roux and his team just seem to get away with half baked testimony 

#OscarTrial Mikey Schultz which the SA media describe as a self-confessed 'hitman' is in court watching proceedings

who?

Thanks for all your info and chat in here!  

RT @diannehawker: Nel" "I've seen some of your reports", saying Vergeer always emphasises the fact that an accused has a job. #OscarTrial

so in other words, she gives more help to those who have a job as opposed to those that don't 

is there any evidence (I couldn't see any) that OP had an adaptations to his bathroom/loo in respect of his disability? 

googling, he seems a 

#OscarTrial This trial has drawn all sorts to court: Schultz got indemnity for giving evid against SA criminal mastermind Glenn Agliotti

thanks Xochi, it's back on now but handy to have for when it goes down  

I said that earlier...there are no bars or aids in his own bathroom 

If #vergeer says #honourablecourt one more time I'll pluck her eyes out with a fork #OscarTrial#OscarPistorius

Vergeer starts giggling when she gets nervous. She does it again now, and immediately says sorry @eNCAnews #OscarTrial

yes, he is a self confessed killer....I got my information the same place as this witness 

#OscarTrial Vergeer says OP sd he wd look at 'options' of what to do after the trial (if he isnt sent to jail)

none of them want to mention the book in the pipeline 

she said he had a job and now saying she doesn't know what it is 

Jeebus 

she's being evasive 

Vergeer: the accused only has a Matric certificate. The only thing he knows how to do is run @eNCAnews #OscarTrial

so he just about passed high school but no university because he could run 

she will not answer any questions  why is Masipa not stepping in...her testimony should be made void 

For an experienced witness, she's argumentative and over speaks under cross examination.

#OscarTrial Vergeer coming over as very evasive

#OscarTrial Vergeer too seems to suggest media coverage has had a negative impact on future OP fortunes which he'd have to assess

when he was on the stand I always felt that 

but... but... but.. honourable court he's 'art broken and she won't get a cut of the profits if she lets slip he's writing a book 

#OscarTrial Vergeer seems to veer away from answering that question (about whether jail wd be appropriate if he'd been convicted of murder)

seriously honourable court 

#OscarTrial Roux’s computer screensaver has come to life: “barry’s MacBook Pro” says the message flashing on the screen. BB
