Nope, she didn't want to cause a fuss.
A minor irritation.
Ok, that really hurt a lot, but she managed to hold it together and not reveal her identity.
The judges must just want to call a stop to this farce, and put him away already.

Court adjourned for day. They have started going through cell phone conversations. Interestingly:
- there is one conversation that appears to back up what his mate was saying regarding the discharge of the firearm in the restaurant (ie, Oscar asked him to take the blame)
- 90% of the messages between the 2 are normal, loving ones.
- there are some from Reeva where she is saying that she has never been a stripper or a "ho"
- there is one where she says that she is sometimes scared by him and is unhappy and sad.
- others give the impression that Oscar was jealous of her talking/flirting with other men and that he was rather controlling about how she acted (there is some criticism of her smoking weed, but not sure if that is referring to then or in the past).
- they also give the impression that he was jealous of previous relationships she had had (she says that he was critical of her past relationships, even though he had dated loads of other people too)
- they also suggest that he was prone to throwing very public tantrums.
More tomorrow, but some stuff there that is beginning to give a different impression of him and their relationship.

Pretty damning, imo.

Certainly starting to paint a picture of him that he would prefer not to be painted, I suggest.
My impression was that he got in a rage and murdered his girlfriend. How do those text give a different impression?

They don't. But the main assumption by many here was that they enjoyed a loving relationship and from that they get the "oh what a dreadful accident" story. This is the first time in court that we have heard that their relationship may not have been what it appeared to be to many (that painted in the Hello magazine type press, for example).
As some journalists are saying, this is the closest we are going to get to Reeva giving testimony and it is not pretty.

M'lady would save some heartbreak and a lot of money to call a halt to this farce. Lock the creepy git up and throw away the key.
Does he imagine there could be anyone on the planet that could believe his ridiculous story.

He's guilty. Should end the trial now and take him outside and shoot him.

His defence team are reported to be earning R100,000 a day. He has put that house up for sale to pay the legal bills - don't think I would like to live there somehow.

Interesting stuff. Why don't they have juries in South Africa? My assumption would be that the legacy of racial politics there might make them difficult but that might be unfair.

Couldn't imagine anyone wanting to buy it either, they should fit it out with bars and lock him up there where Reeva was murdered, just to haunt him whilst serving his time.

They were abolished in 1969 and have never been bought back. The argument is that SA society is still too unequal to make them fair.

KZNSeagull, you have shocked me there (and you a man of letters, too). You don't moonlight for the Argus, do you?

That's because in order to bring Jury Service back, we have to pay for it

With no attempt to circumnavigate the sweary filter....
You are a ****ing ****. A complete ****tard. I sincerely hope you ****ing drown in a huge vat of liquid shit. **** **** bollocks piss ****.

Bollocks and piss are obviously okay then in terms of the swear filter. What about crap, *******, wanker, ****, ********, **** then?
