So he won't probably get more jail time? Prob just a big fine??? As I stated - no justice for her parents
I know that here in the UK it doesn't involve prison time? Just a big fine and more to prove a point and show that the person is a no good piece of shit
Hopefully her parents will get him done - the spoilt,crybaby,gun toting,self publicist shit of a man!
Kind of shows how values and respect have gone out the window in the UK when Fury is shortlisted for "sports personality of the year"? I watched a news item about Richard Chiassaro this morning - he is a Rio Olympic doubt after having his specialist sports wheelchair that cost thousands of pounds vandalised at a London sports centre where he trains hard twice a day so he can proudly represent his country.Made me feel sick to the bottom of my stomach when I heard - I hope they captured them on cctv? They should be publically flogged the heartless little shits
I thought he had been found guilty and a warrant is out for his arrest but he has been allowed to stay with his uncle for now
This is not a civil matter, but a criminal appeal, as far as I understand it. Under South African law, the prosecution can appeal to a higher court against an acquittal verdict. Bear in mind that there was no jury - the verdict and sentencing were done by a single judge. The main options were premeditated murder and culpable homicide. The trial court found Pistorius not guilty of premeditated murder, but guilty of culpable homicide. The sentence reflected this. The prosecution appealed the verdict of not guilty of premeditated murder. The Supreme Court heard this appeal and has recently decided to allow the appeal, which means that the not guilty verdict is quashed and a verdict of guilty of premeditated murder is substituted. The case was then remitted to the court below for re-sentencing in due course, which is now awaited.
@Pete1950 I thought that it was a civil action brought by the family of Reva which I think was being discussed as an option some time ago. I much prefer your explanation though.
There may well be a civil action for wrongful death brought by the Steenkamp family pending. But the recent news item was about the criminal appeal. In the famous American case of O J Simpson and the 1994 death of Nicole, there were three sets of proceedings: the criminal trial, the civil action for wrongful death, and the child custody case. OJ won two but lost one.
Tyson Fury is from large travellers family, so I think we ought to expect him to say what he likes and what he feels....... ...but he does leave the expletives out most of the time. ...........and the old batteries and tyres.
Really? I was wrong then! You can get jail time for a civil case.Hope he enjoys it in there - the prison population in SA is higher AIDS/HIV in world
Don't know if any of you saw the Anthony Joshua fight? Should be against the law! Two boxers actually trading punches and hitting each other!!! Being serious though it was a proper boxing match with plenty of grudge and snarling going down.Whyte was no patsy and looked like he worried Joshua a couple of times and they both went for it! Good to see for a change but either of them could put Fury flat on his arse anytime/any day.Catch it if you can guys
Joshuas an absolute animal isnt he. Even when Whyte rocked him he never looked to be in trouble. Makes Fury look like the absolute joke he is. Imagine he'll be fighting that other fat pudding Haye in the Spring, cant wait..
Went down Tesco earlier and the queue was out the door - I asked the guy on till what was going on and he said it was all the pikeys getting phone credit so they could vote for Fury 2015 sports personality
