Pistorius granted bail
 

Judge, "Cannot find that the accused is a flight risk."

Thoughts?

lol what a fuck off justice just received

did they keep his legs?

:1orglaugh :upsidedow

I see the irony was not lost on you. :thumbsup

:1orglaugh

*LMAO* First I thought you mean passport, because leg is a shortname for Id card in Swedish. But then I get it and spit my coffee all over my laptop.

I see Nike cancelled his sponsorship. Didn't realize they made helicopters. :2 cents:

He won't be back in court until June.

let me be the first to say he got bail because he is white

Since this will not be a jury trial, but will involve a judge and possibly 2 advisers, does this present an issue where a judge can be more easily swayed. Are judges open to financial persuasion? I'm not insinuating, just curious how the justice system works in South Africa, I have no familiarity. But justice in the USA, at least celebrity justice, seems to work in favor of the celebrity (athletes included).

How the hell does one get bail when accused of murder? I thought murder was always a no bail ordeal?

Not saying that it doesn't happen, but for my 10 years there, I've never heard of judges facing corruption charges or even being accused of corruption in the papers, etc. Corruption in the police, that's a completely different animal... I know two guys that were sentenced in South Africa and both received fair trials and sentences for what they did. When it comes to serious crimes, the judges don?t fuck around AT ALL.

From what I've heard so far on the news, this trial won't be easy though and it could go either way, he's the only one that knows what really happened

i found it very odd that the lead investigator was all of a sudden re-charged with attempted homicide.
that being said, it is interesting how we all want to believe this guy is innocent because of the fact he is a Olympic gold winner... somehow that makes you a better person.

he has some hiden

Well, i don't know the truth, but:

there's a good joke in there somewhere....

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

he shot her through a bathroom door right?? :Oh crap :helpme :disgust

I dont think he has a leg to stand on

thnx for taking the time to answer my question...

We had a sweepstake today, and a bit of google.
One of the few routes you would have is this
, a) bus to Namibia , its a neighbour and a semi-ratified extradition treaty. Pre signed , not fully agreed
b) Nigeria, no extradition, still under treaty.
c) tricky bit, you want to get from lagos to uruguay but you might have to go transit so the best option is belgium and stay in the international transit zone
d) you dont want to go to buenos aires as they have extradition
e) so you go amsterdam, stay in transit
f) go to dutch antilles (semi jurisdiction, but bent as fuck its all taliban or mafia)
g) hop a flight to uruguay and stay in monte video, which was good enough for the graf spee
h) declare "Unfair trial by Media and therefore unable to obtain justice"
i) shag fucking hot latina bitches for the rest of your life doggy style :pimp

or it was an accident, in which case if the suicide watch isnt good he'll be taking a lead aspirin by tuesday

Oh, option c) is providing you dont run a free porn tube site of course

Yeah... and justice for all. I've been always thinking the bail is only for those who are only suspected but there are no evidences of guilty. Here his guilt is not questionable yet... he may now go free?

As with pretty much everything in this case so far, if it was a movie, you would be sitting there eating your popcorn saying "no way"........

that blueprint of his bathroom , with a big room , corner bath and then a tiny toilet in the corner with a door really screams out innocent

Innocent until proven guilty!!

Independent judiciary is far superior to a jury system - how else did OJ get acquitted?

i heard bodycount are making a new album. ice t needs to make another song like this because this legless guy's story is a joke..



or maybe he doesnt even need to - song is quite fitting..

Gun nut goes to jail.

Not saying you shouldn't have a gun for home protection, but your chance of killing someone goes up by 1000%.

Poor lil tink tink

He can do that standing up on the bed. :2 cents:

Thread saver.

I think it was an accident. Why would anyone shoot her intentionally?

attention whore ?

She got a text message on her iPad (remember it was Valentine's) from an exbf rugby player Francois Hougaard that nite and the assumption was that Pistorius read it and got jealous.

Why would anyone shoot through a closed door before making sure it's not your own wife?

Just shows some people should never have been allowed a gun.

It's been reported that they were having some sort of wild argument right before the shooting erupted. It's not likely they were having a blowout, and she goes into the bathroom, and he thinks she's somehow an intruder.

You know where your wife is. I know where my wife is. There's no "I thought she was an intruder" defense on this one. That's just lunacy.

Apparently the police had been called on multiple occasions regarding domestic violence in the recent past. Suddenly there's an intruder involved? And oops, it's my wife? There's just no way.

Paul McCartney's being called as a material witness for the prosecution.

He's expected to testify that yes, she came in through the bathroom window.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh


I also read that his brother was just charged with homicide in a traffic accident from a couple of years ago. Must have proud parents ?..
