[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 671544, member: 40658"] Oscar's defence was pre-emptive self defence. Our law states that a person may use self defence in the event that there is a threat, or that a situation is in the process of becoming a threat. He was found guilty of manslaughter, because his negligence is not how a reasonable man would have reacted. But the judge didn't find that he was guilty of dolus eventualis, meaning he didn't have the intent to murder Reeva, instead it shows that he had the intention to protect himself. It makes perfect sense to me. EDIT: The National Prosecuting Authority has just announced that they won't appeal the judge's decision. [/QUOTE]
