Oscar's Sentence

[Churchill]

Gaol or community service?

Personally I find the way he is being portrayed as the victim, offensive.

Hang the murdering bastard!

He didn't murder anyone you dingbat.

Technically you are correct. He was legless at the time.

Well I think he's lucky as **** not to have got done for murder.

But, if we accept (as the judge has) that he did not know Reeva was behind the door, and thought it was an intruder, his actions were probably no different to many other scared white South Africans.

If it had been an intruder that he'd shot, he wouldn't even be in court.

So given what he was found guilty of, I'm not convinced he'll get a gaol sentence.

Where's the team lawyer, what did the judge really say?

She basically said that prosecution had failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that OP's version of events could not be true.

Petrocelli would've nailed the ****er!

And if he had been building Oscar's house, there would have been no door on the bog...

3 years suspended sentence + community service.

Oh, she's still going. Perhaps that was the firing gun in the restaurant thing.

Edit: Or maybe it was a previous case.
