Man of Honour
He's been a good boy...
At least double would have been reasonable but anything goes in South Africa.

Watched it on Sky News. As she kept talking in circles, I thought there was something wrong with the feed.

How much time has he already served?
Man of Honour
Just been mentioned on the news that the minimum for murder is fifteen years which make this like a slap on the wrist.
Man of Honour
He was sentenced to five and served one (bbc world news live).

A life is only worth 6 years now? Christ above.
Not to mention he will only do half that.

You can get away with murder in this country for much less, all you need to do is be in your car and be prepared to lose your licence for a while.
Six years is a joke though.

Out on parole in two if he's a good boy...
They've already said the one year he's served won't count.
So he'll have to serve a minimum of 2 years before eligible for parole.
His legal time are unlikely to appeal due to the very lenient sentence, but the state prosecution may well as frankly 2 years for murder is just a joke!

The whole trial has been a joke.
He will end up serving 3 years in jail for the cowardly act of murdering his girlfriend through a toilet door.
He's basically gotten off lightly due to who he is. Anyone else had done that, they would be looking at 15 years minimum.
Great justice system in South Africa.

It's already counted.
Won't count to the new 6 year sentence?

Wow 6 yrs eh?? What a joke that is.
Feel so sorry for Reeva's family, yet again let down by the justice system.
Pathetically inept sentence for a murdering a loved one.
