if she is in the bed?
Look at the side he was on. It makes more sense that he'd have to wake her or at least know if she was there.

If I ever kill my wife I hoe you are on my jury. There is symphathy and there is being gullible. n-t Logical Feb 2013 #31

I hope the detective didn't botch the case. dkf Feb 2013 #8

I think he botched the bail hearing. Are_grits_groceries Feb 2013 #13

SA Justice? does the average citizen get a 4 day bail hearing? quadrature Feb 2013 #22

He didn't *accidentally* kill her. He deliberately killed the person in the bathroom. CJCRANE Feb 2013 #27

Cool story bro Demo_Chris Feb 2013 #28

By his story: negligent homicide. caseymoz Feb 2013 #29

The judge's comments are similar to many made here: muriel_volestrangler Feb 2013 #32

"Why did Steenkamp not scream back from the toilet?" Skull was already bashed. Oscar THEN went back WinkyDink Feb 2013 #35

There was nothing in the prosecution case that the skull was bashed muriel_volestrangler Feb 2013 #39

"Why did he not verify who was in the toilet?" Because he knew, but forgot to make up a good answer. WinkyDink Feb 2013 #36

"Why did he not ascertain Steenkamp's wherabouts?" Because he knew all along, and isn't that clever WinkyDink Feb 2013 #37

#4: Lying answer: "Fear." Real answer: He meant to kill Reeva. OSCAR was the Fear-Factor. WinkyDink Feb 2013 #38

He is as guilty as sin. smirkymonkey Feb 2013 #33

The judge seemed rather theatrical...Odd tone in court. Oscar should not have been given bail. anneboleyn Feb 2013 #40

I do not believe this was a case of mistaken identity, period. WinkyDink Feb 2013 #34
