oh and in the case of the man and wife..she actually opened the bathroom door in the dark. Reeva was locked in a dark toilet that had no working light...strange that

South Africans must be the only people who automatically assume that noises from their bathroom during the night mean there is a burglar in the house.
to be fair to them Yogi (I always try to be fair   the amount of burgalries that occur over there, particularly in Gauteng (Johannesberg is the worst) 99% of which include some level of gun crime or injury to the people being robbed I'm not surprised.
A lot of black South Africans still have nothing and see White people as having everything so rather than trying to better themselves, they see it as perfectly acceptable to steal from the whites to get back what they feel is theirs.
Crime in SA is so rife it is just one step up from a lawless society where people shoot other people without a second thought - we just can't understand that mindset because it doesn't happen here on such a scale
Yes, the open patio doors completely contradicts his supposed paranoia about security.
Roux says #OscarPistorius gave evidence knowing "the whole world" was listening. "Absolutely exposed."
#PistoriusTrial Roux says he has 'utter admiration' for Reeva's parents for remaining neutral re sentencing
Roux: "I cannot begin to try and understand the pain... But it was the person he loved." We have ample evidence of the relationship.
all this poor Oscar is making me want to boak
it's not his bloody first offence..he shot in the restaurant before this

Makes me so glad I was born in the UK and not SA.
#OscarTrial Roux: no sentence will make that pain go away. BB

Showed a recklessness regarding guns.
Roux attacking Nel for his insistence on premeditated line which was brusquely rejected by Judge and widely seen as huge strategic error.

I think it was.

I hope retaliates with Roux defence of making OP the victim and losing sight of who really was the victim

I'm sure Nel will.
Masipa steps in, how do we know these reports caused this hurt/harm OscarPistorius MV
Do we know which publication it is?
Judge expresses concern about Roux's criticism of media describing premeditated allegations, given that all versions being tested in court.
British media in SA have come in for particular condemnation but then I'd have to agree as some of our media are rabid
I think it was.
It may was the wrong tactic Yogi, but I still believe he shot her deliberately...too many lies, too many inconsistencies ignored

Rabid is a good description of some of them.
Masipa: it's very important to the court not to consider anything that wasn't tested #oscartrial
Roux: "It must have been a punishment in itself to read that you're a cold blooded murderer." #Pistorius
I got distracted by a lost donkey bear found in Yeoville
the guy sitting next to June Steenkamp is the guy who they are paying for his travel and hotel in his own daughters murder trial
the guy sitting next to June Steenkamp is the guy who they are paying for his travel and hotel in his own daughters murder trial
I wondered who he was.
Roux says he often thinks the death of a child must be terrible, but must also be horrible for OP hearing evidence #OscarPistorius MV
#OscarTrial Roux: talks about the pain it must have caused the accused listening to witnesses testify (incorrectly) about deceased screams.
it's all poor Oscar
Roux describes #OscarPistorius going beyond contractual charity work to contribute privately to help others.

Ahhhh me too - I saw June walking into court with him arm in arm

yes what he lost.. I'm so angry
Roux: He received an honorary doctorate because of the way he conducted himself, the way he conducted his charity work. #Pistorius

pah rubbish and I said that when they were giving testimony...it's standard procedure to rake in more money

Tbf, that's what Roux is paid to do.
Nel will be the voice of Reeva.

and Srathclyde want to revoke it so I have heard
I cannot believe that Roux has been banging on about the media again. WERE WE SUPPOSED TO PRETEND OSCAR DID NOT KILL HIS GIRLFRIEND?
this ^ is one person who criticised the British press on eNCA and Oscar Trial channel for making accusations that OP was being sedated with medication for his trial - this later turned out to be true
Roux says this was OP's last money, he didn't pay leagal fees, but offered unconditionally to Reeva's folks #OscarPistorius MV
OP breaking down in the dock hearing Roux
Tbf, that's what Roux is paid to do.
Nel will be the voice of Reeva.
I know Yogi, it's just the thought of her being thought so little of by the DT and OP showing more and owning up to more of the responsibility
Roux tells Judge there "are a great deal of mitigating factors" and that sentence for #OscarPistorius began long ago.
Roux: The punishment is already far greater than any criminal punishment.
OP breaking down in the dock hearing Roux
he wasn't like that when Kim martin was talking about Reeva's upbringing and how much her family had been devastated by her loss In fact he was yawning
#OscarTrial Roux: easy to stand here after an accused is guilty to say he is sorry - we refer you to the beginning, what witnesses saw. BB
as an aside Dame - eNCA are haemorrhaging money and their star reporters are jumping ship so could explain why they are leaving the sky channel - maybe can't afford it - they're also losing viewers

Roux cites #OscarPistorius proven anxiety and trauma as reasons not to put him in prison.

Only showed emotion after the break - no doubt someone had a word with him.
I was about to ask if stone faced Aimee was in court today and the camera as if by magic went straight to her
as an aside Dame - eNCA are haemorrhaging money and their star reporters are jumping ship so could explain why they are leaving the sky channel - maybe can't afford it - they're also losing viewers
its's a shame, I like the channel and they have been extremely fair on their reporting
