Awful story. What a beautiful woman, senselessly killed by her boyfriend.
I do not believe the burglar story one bit. Have you seen photos of where he lives? It's super high security and he was locked up in his own house in his own bed.
Is it not a bit extreme to shoot a would-be burglar four times, including in the head, if you're startled by them? Did she have a gun-shaped present and was waving it at him which made him think he had no other option but to shoot and kill? Was it pitch black and she didn't say a word and was therefore mistaken for a burglar? He was very accurate with his shooting, surely somebody in a panic wouldn't be able to shoot and kill like that. Why would she want to wake him at 4am for a Valentine's surprise? That just makes no sense whatsoever, was she a bit mad? What sort of surprise involves waking up your boyfriend in the pitch black and not saying a word? Unless that was the case I don't see why he'd have shot out four times to kill.
All in all, I say send him to prison for fifty years. Dirty man.
MI5 Agent Butters reporting.
They had the best prosecution available in Gerrie Nel and failed to bring a murder charge. The correct decision has been awarded but you're upset as you chose the wrong side for some weird reason in your head mate.
The judges ruling was transparent and fully explained. There was nothing to suggest that he thought his girlfriend was in the bathroom and purposefully shot at her.
I think you may just have prejudices towards rich people humping pretty girls and people with disabilities.
For about six months, yeah. I'd do six months to get rid of certain people I dislike too!
Me too G.I just dislike white people if I'm honest G.
Defo. I wanted Tommy Smith pured HANGED when I found out he'd been cheating benefits.
In fact I still do mate.
FAIR TACKLE.They should have smashed his legs misery style.
Where did you hear that mate?Latest is that he attacked her with a bat smashing her head in and shooting her in the hip before she managed to crawl into the bathroom. Cowering in the corner nursing her injury and attempting to cover her head with her hands she was shot through the door a further three times, with shots hitting her hands and head, killing her.
Being in a life and death situation for some just takes logic out of your mind completely tbf.
Looks like the useless police service have well and truly messed this one up. He'll go free now, I'm convinced of it.
Police Inspector Botha.Where did you hear that mate?
They argued?Far too logical mate.
If he doesn't get life for this their whole system is corrupt.
He's murdered her in cold blood following an argument. Pity she had no brains otherwise she'd have gone elsewhere to get away from him, the poor girl.
I still 100% believe he knew she was in the bathroom and thus is guilty of murder, Cheeks!You took this position on the day of the incident without knowing any of the facts and as such you are invested in one side.
I hope you now will take a more pragmatic approach to such things from this point onwards.
Thank you.
Uh oh!Judge is using a previous case as reasoning to allow him to go on bail. "Exceptional circumstances" lol He's being bailed.
Blaiming "public outrage" on the prosecution not putting a strong enough case before him. Shifting the blame a bit there.
Here's hoping the prosecution can now put together a strong case for pre-meditated murder and get him sent down when his trial commences.
