I think he's guilty as sin.

Let's see what the judge has to say on the judgement day. Otherwise, I hear that he's still liable to face a case for culpable homicide.

Bleddy hell, that forensic 'expert' Geologist Dixon made a right D%ck of himself yesterday. He was well and truly washed and wringed inside out by Nel. It makes the defence look sooooooo baaaaaaad. :shakeshead:


Pistorius looked very relieved with the two week holiday upon exiting the court. One can understand that.

He'll need a rest after his performance as the grief stricken boyfriend earlier in the week.

He has been very publicly traumatised young man all the way through this trial. After all, in his own words, his life is on the line.

I hear he's been ordered to go through independent psychiatric assessment for his GAD. I'm not quite sure if there's anything such as 'independent' in SA. Not sure if that's good or bad for him.

I predict that our dpb would say-'It depends on how much of stale chicken he bribes to his new psychiatrist'.

The prosecution wanted this assessment but I don't know why?

Perhaps they hope that a month in a straight jacket will do him good. More realistically they might assume that he cannot keep up his "damaged youth" defence for a whole month.

Give them a chance to spring clean the gallows

Because the alternative was to simply accept the expert testimony of the defence witness

I.e. that he has some sort of anxiety disorder

If they want to nail him properly they need to make sure he's not psycho

I assumed the prosecution would call upon their own "expert witness" to destroy the defence argument. At least that's what happens on telly

Final judgement tomorrow although it could still drag on with appeals from either side if the judgement doesn't go their way.

Still think he knew what he was doing on the night Reeva Steenkamp was killed.

I think that was the crudest bit of humour I have ever heard Quite good coming from a moderator

Well Oscar should be hanging in the breeze soon.

I do hope the Judge had a chance to take some hints from Mr Cook as below

Is the judge on the payroll ? feel's like a touch of the OJ's going on here, summing up in under an hour with a quick p1ss break to make him sweat a little bit before letting him off.

Nel must be shaking his head in disbelief.

What a crock and still no verdict despite sitting on it for a month or so. Is the judge milking this or not?

If your size 10 wife/girlfriend wakes you up in the middle of night pretend she's a 6ft intruder and shoot her.

Seems fair enough !
