Gerrie Nel is amazing! Really impressed with him! Go Mr. Nel!

Gerrie Nel is surely the very best prosecuting advocate out there. His method and execution of cross examination is simply terrifying. He patiently but ruthlessly destroys the credibility of his witness. If Oscar’s version of the incident were true then surely Reeva would have spoken and replied to him from the toilet after he said “Reeva get down and call the police”! It’s just totally improbable that she would not at any stage say NOTHING! The fact that the first bullet struck Reeva in the right hip can only mean that she was standing in the toilet and facing the door, probably talking to Oscar. There are so many holes, inconsistencies and nonsensical issues with Oscar’s comments, which clearly indicate the amount of lies coming out of his mouth. So incredibly annoying and irritating to hear Oscar say “My Lady” after EVERY question or comment! Surely this is NOT necessary when answering Advocate Nel.

His tears are purely because those words were the final words in an argument before he completely lost it and killed Reeva he's a complete liar and I think that Gerrie Nel is showing Oscar Pistorius up for the liar he is!

Something keeps bothering me. The crime scene photos show Reeva's bedroom slippers neatly together on 'Oscar's side of the bed' and on 'Reeva's side of the bed' the electronic gadgets and electrical cables/leads and floor fan. OP said it was so pitch dark in the room he could not see whether or not Reeva was the bed. He also claimed that he was unstable on his stumps. Yet, he was able to fetch the gun from under the bed on his stumps without disturbing Reeva's slippers on the floor or her belongings on the sofa. And after the shooting, he was able to clamber over the bed and search behind the curtains, again in the dark, without tripping over the gadgets, cables and fan on the floor. Doesn't sound plausible to me.

BIG time murderer wen he's holding a gun but BIG time cry baby wen in front of a judge

I absolutely believe him when he says he said "get the fuck out of my house" but he was screaming it to Reeva and he knew he was screaming it to Reeva. That's why he's so emotional. He was totally out of control and shot her in a fit of rage.

What shocks me most is his cowardice and hypocrisy. How dare he beg Reeva's family for forgiveness when he hasn't acknowledged what he really did ?

Oscar thought Reeva was flirting the night before. When Oscar noticed Reeva had got up and took her phone Oscar thought she was texting a new guy. Out of rage he got his gun and shot her

Mr. Pistorius. If you believed an intruder was in the toilet and you were in a life threatening situation, "scared" and "terrified", why, after cautiously advancing down the bathroom passage, did you stand directly facing the toilet door with an open window to your side?

As much as I want to believe Oscar he is allowing Nel to wind him up. He is answering more than he needs to and Nel is seizing that moment to catch Oscar out. Especially when Oscar points out minute details but doesn't remember the big details!

I've kept an open mind throughout this trial, but the evidence against him is compelling. Pistorius is contradicting himself, putting on a display of him crying. "Im not sure" "i don't know" is ridiculously overused - clearly lying through his teeth. Tell the truth, Oscar, for Reeva and her family.

This is more like a KANGAROO COURT. In my opinion OP has made some excellent points, he's a good listener, has a good memory, albeit that he must be under incredible stress. His rebuttals have made a lot of sense. How can he know what Reeva was thinking, whether he's guilty or not, how does he know why she only put her track pants on. He's told the court that she was neat in some senses, but ''her car was a mess''. The SA judicial system/Courtroom procedure is very loose and amateur in its application. If I were Oscar I would be finding a new lawyer as my advocate This guy must be dozing as he's allowed the prosecutor to brow beat his client, call him a liar, twist his words to suit his version of what happened and . The judge has only just now clued in that she should start participating in this trial and call Nells on his brow beating of the witness. She should be calling both sides up to the bench and telling the prosecutor to stop asking the same question over and over again, from asking OP technical questions about stomach contents 6 hours later. There is so much wrong with his cross-examination. Even the prosecutor and judge make mistakes about what was said and the perceptions that they had - and they aren't the ones on trial.

Still, I think OP's version of events does not make sense in many points goes against common sense and raises lot of questions.

The noise in the bathroom may have been Reeva trying to escape from OP!!

The 10 reasons which add up to his guilt: 1. 4 people heard a woman scream. He didnt prove he could scream like a woman. 2. The big fan could never have moved to that position without moving the multi plug extension - the fan story is a joke 3. Reeva's jeans were on the floor 4. If she had gone to the toilet he would have heard her flush it 5. She was wearing shorts and a top on a very hot night 6. She would have responded to his shouts 7. He created an obstacle course where the fans were 8. He stopped shooting after the head shot which killed her 9. She would have to have crawled across the bed to get out of it 10. She ate two hours before her death So m'lady you know what to do..... Then he'll appeal, then his sentence will be slightly reduced.

The one with the legs

It's like shooting a man in the leg and say : 'Oh dear, I'm so, so sorry to have trodden on your foot ! It must be so painful, I feel for your pain !'.

Why doesn't this judge EVER say "let's move on"? How many times is Nel allowed to ask the same question over and over? "Why didn't you say you heard a window open" why did you say you heard a noise"? And that's just ONE example. The whole cross examination has been like this. Even the judge is struggling to keep her eyes open. South Africa has a very strange judicial system. I don't think anyone can get a fair trial . Even though I think he's guilty as sin she's letting him get railroaded up there

The truth will always come out the same no matter how many times he's cross examined, but a lie will always come out with different stories because it never happened that way, crying each time he gets stuck with his answer, this shows it's all a lie, except when he got into the bathroom , you can see the difference as this part he had no problem answering as it was the truthful part, I'm sure Reeva is sitting next to him in court in spirit making sure he pay's for what he did to her.

He is too stupid to lie properly. He is not very 'sharp', but a bit slow in his brain.

I wonder if after hearing OP's testimony and discrepancies if his family is starting to disbelieve him and realize he murdered Reeva because she was going to leave him.

1:04:48 OP said that his house has never been burgled before and in fact the security of the community had been stepped up, which together means that OP had no reason to believe or react the way he, i.e reach for his gun as the first port of call. If he had been burgled or attempts made on his property, then he would have had good reason to reach for his gun to defend himself and Reeva. But based on passed experience, that has shown he has had no threats, why does he think on this occasion that he needed a gun? Why did he not think that in all probability it was Reeva making the noise. It's clear in my mind that he knew exactly where Reeva was.

Oscar is a bad liar. Barry Roux should have told him : If you talk BS, I walk. You can see the frustration on Barry's face.

Is anybody else finding it strange, that although he has said he has very limited mobility on his stumps, that he has consistently said that he ran to the bed to get his gun. Sounds like he was pretty able to get around quite quickly on his stumps...OR that he indeed had his legs on,!? A bit surprised that I haven't see someone else pick up on that!?

We have to understand that when we are in a panic situation, we cannot be rational at the same time. We let our self control by our instinct and feelings. OP was in panic mode during 14 feb. He did not have the time to think about what is was doing. We also have to understand, OP is emotional, nervous and tire of the pressure. That has an impact on his concentration in court. OP is emotional because he keep reliving the shooting. It is very easy to criticize OP, but I thingk all of us would react the same way in court, especially when we are accused of murder with the possibility to spend min 25 years in prison.

usownt On my previous comment I did not mention that i believe he words. I simply explain that the way he felt in 14 feb and the way his feeling in court has an impact on his concentration. Of course when you are in a panic mode , you do have a certain level of rationality, but you cannot be completely logic. If he was completely rational I wouldn't shoot and find out that Reeva was in the toilet. I agree that OPs words can be conflicting , but Nel is an expert provoking that. Nel has the ability to use tricky question or technique to make people say what he wants to here. We have to understand that the prosecutor's job is not to find the truth, but to convince the court that the accused is guilty, no matter if it truth or not. The opposite goes for the defense.

if the wounds on her back is not from the bullets or the magazine rack....what caused it then?

the irony is this will eventually be made into an Oscar award winning movie.

I believe that in a US trial - if his lawyer even risked putting him on the stand - he would try to absolutely ensure that the defendant did not change important details of his testimony. A fine-toothed argument of points about 'tailoring' would never happen; he'd object and object -- even if he was getting overruled -- the moment it was mentioned, and get the defendant off the stand as quickly as possible if he was repeatedly being inconsistent in his testimony.

Mr. Nel, if it only takes him 30 seconds to put on his legs like he just said then why didn't he put them on when he felt 'vulnerable' on his stumps when confronting the burglar he thought was in the bathroom? Indeed Mr. Nel.

Looking at the picture at 26:05 one can clearly see the length of the fan chord. There's NO WAY that it's long enogh to reach from the extension box to the front of the bed.

I think the significance of some of what the prosecution is getting at could easily be lost on a number of people, causing me to question Nel's tactics at times. Then again I am quite sure he knows what he is doing ... I sure wouldn't want to be subject to his questioning! ( think I would be weeping too!!! )

April 9th, session 5, 41:16 - 41:20, OP testifies, "THEY DIDN'T KNOW THE FAN WAS PART OF WHERE THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED." Evidence from Oscar Pistorius that the "ACCIDENT" started in the BEDROOM. Hopefully Mr. Nel will review the testimony, the statement happened so quickly.

is there someone of the legal profession out there that can answer a question, What is "zit zit"

Nel should focus on the fact OP said everyone has different instincts n he wanted to get between reva n intruder rather than check 1st. But when he shot at intruder he reversed this instinct at the highest point in threat. He just shot an intruder but goes to the bedroom. What if he missed?? Did he check to see if bullets were successful? We know he couldn't hear so why risk coming back to reva when u set out to do the opposite. This to me is were nels focus should be!!! Anyone agree???

He also would have the chance of having some kind of a life afterwards. But he doesn't care about any of that he just wants to get away with murder.

Gun under his bed, trigger happy, but perfectly plausible. What's implausible is spending the evening and night with someone, you both wake up in the early hours, speak to each other, you hear the bathroom window open, hear someone go into the toilet cubicle and immediately assume that it's an intruder - without even checking where your girlfriend is.

And the amount of times he argues with Nel "no I didn't My Lady" he then has to concede "then I made a mistake My Lady". I'm sorry but he is losing the grip on his already unbelievable story. All I will say is that if I and my man were in such a situation, there is no way he would not think it EXTREMELY odd if I didn't respond.

good people is there anything OP remembers?....

For those of you stating that Nel is grasping at straws...I put this to you, Nel has made issue of the "blue LED light." He has proven that there was more light illumination in the bed area than Oscar "conveniently" is attesting to. The blue light indicates that the DVD player was on, therefore there is an illuminated display on the cable box. If the DVD player was off, a RED light would have illuminated. Being it is blue, there is light illumination on the cable box. In essence, OP has tried to emphasize the darkness of this room; Nel has proven by his emphasis on the "blue light," that there was far more light illumination in the bed area than Oscar wants to admit to. This means he COULD see that Reeva was/was not in bed. Nel has also made issue of the line of blood splatter on the carpet, across the duvet (lifting the duvet shows no splatter underneath it), and behind the headboard of the bed. This is important because it indicates that he injured Reeva in the bed area. She tried to put her pants on in an effort to leave, he wasn't having that (inside out jeans on the floor). Those inside out jeans indicate to me, the desperation of Reeva trying to get away from him (she was trying to put the pants on but clearly was unsuccessful). She fled into the toilet area. This is crucial to premeditation and proves it beyond a reasonable doubt. Just my observation.

Warren Levine only my observation from OP's testimony, the inside out jeans...he either smacked her or hit her with the cricket bat there. The pathologist revealed three fractures at the base of the skull. I suspect Reeva was trying to leave during the argument. He must have grabbed her by her pants while she was putting them on, in an attempt to leave.

Can't really say without autopsy results, and they've been sealed. I don't think he could have cracked her skull in three places by smacking her. Was there any DNA found on the cricket bat? I'd understood that those chips of bone were secondary to the entry wound. I can't even be sure what the angles of entry and exit are for that head wound, so that's all speculative. Bottom line's the same, no matter what the gory details. I don't know if you've read the Rodger manifesto, but after reading that and coming back to Pistorius' psychopathology, I can honestly say I'm thankful Oscar didn't take his freakin' guns and a bunch of extra clips to Reeva's friend's engagement party, because God knows, it could have been a lot worse.

The pathologist DID reveal three fractures at the base of the skull and there was an enormous amount of her blood on the cricket bat. Look at the picture of the cricket bat on the floor entered into evidence. Also, according to the ballistic experts of BOTH defense and prosecution...the wound to the skull entered the parietal lobe and exited the occipital portion of the skull. Her hands were crossed over her head and the bullet tore the webbing between the ring and middle finger prior to entering the parietal portion of the skull blowing out the back of her head (brain matter/bone fragmentation were found in the toilet area). Some of the autopsy report has been revealed by the prosecution during questioning. I have extensive knowledge of anatomy & physiology and am a forensic science geek. In fairness, the base skull (occipital) fractures could also be the result of the bullet exit. Both (cricket bat and/or bullet exit) are valid possibilities.

Oscar is trying to justify everything he did in a fabricated story. He can't justify any of it. It's wrong to panic and kill someone. You must find loved ones before shooting through walls and doors You must investigate things before resorting to violence. You must keep your composure and sanity. His story is stupid and never happened. God help us all if we behave as he said he should have.

i am not a law student so can someone tell me why is 'not in his interest to argue the case''

for some that didn't have time to think,he thought about how he carried his gun,thought about not shouting that he was armed so not to panic intruder,thought about not fire warning shots in case it ricocheted and hit him.Yet when it suits he just shot without thinking did every thing without thinking hmmm

Its very interesting that when asked what did you shout, Oscar chose to act it out and shouts "Get the f** outta my house" then repeats it in a noticeably higher pitch voice sounding more like a women.

He will crack before Nell the Superdawg is done with him...

He's good actor, he can be a Bollywood actor for sure but the whole world is watching South African judicial system.

All things aside, I can't figure out why he killed her in the first place. Did he actually see her? Is he also color blind or eyesight a little out of focus or does he have some vision impairment? Didn't he notice she was a 10+?! He should've been worshipping the ground she walked on! Loser.

floatershaw One thing for sure is he didn't take the advice the people behind that snowy owl gave and tried to fly by night... :D I haven't seen anyone yet think he's not guilty in the fullest sense. I'm not sure what the levels of murder there are in SA, but since it's already established that he shot and killed her, it's gonna come down to something equivalent to manslaughter or murder in the 3rd degree as opposed to premeditated murder. Any idea?

0.28 What did Mr. Nel say?

A bit of an "Oops" for the prosecutor at 35:50 where he mistakes the DVD logo for an LED, but such a good prosector. Old Pistorius ended with a bang in the prosecution's favour. Now, back in court for another week and it's all hell let loose again. Just a continuation from last week for Pistorius' grilling for lies. "I spoke to Riva quietly to say "get down". Then, just minutes later, "so you SHOUTED for Riva to get down"? Yes! OOps He's had it now.

Take care

Let's look back on the case. The Prosecutors will in fact SUCCESSFULLY APPEAL the case. There MUST be a re-trial. Read my comments below as well as visit my google plus page. There you will find many comments from last year about the case. NO MORE FAMOUS PEOPLE GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER AND HEINOUS CRIMES!

No mention of Sex ! Sorry to be the first but new relationship so honeymoon period & a young fit couple.Romantic evening in on Valentines night(Although I would take a lady out to a good restaurant personally),Reeva cooked a Stir Fry they went to bed looked at the Internet & watched TV.Sounds like something was seriously wrong with their relationship so early on or have I missed something ?

Why Are they Not showing him??

Why Are that Not showing him??

sweating the details, sweating the details...

1:20:08 Pistorious is questioned about what he said. "gitthafukkattamahass!"

I believe the issue of the jeans are key to this case. I believe just the fact that he mentions them means they did more than buy time. I believe he peeled those pants off of her because she was planning on leaving. He threw them on the stereo and that is why he said he used them to cover up the light on the stereo. They found them on the floor right beneath the stereo. Ladies, what do you think? When you take your pants off are they inside out? If she was so neat, why would they be in the middle of the room on the floor? It just doesn't add up. Remember every story has some truth in it.

***** Right, unless the pants are skin tight. But she was wearing boxer shorts. Hhmm. . . . She could not have had those under her jeans. I hope you are having a great start of the week. I spent Mother's Day doing what most mothers do, working. I do not care for the holiday. It seems too contrived. Like another holiday to get people to go out and spend money. Children should honor their parents because God said so. It should not be one day of the year. Do you have a similar day in SA?

***** I haven't watched yet. I had to do my therapy. I am glad I am not the only one who is not a fan of Mother's Day. I am lucky tht my mother is still alive. She is 83. Still gets around and is smart as can be. No senility with her. She has to stay sharp dealing with her genius sons and daughters. I am not including myself in that lot. My own daughter can be such a sh**. She tells me lies, keeps secrets, and talks smack about me, yet on Mother's Day she gives me some flowers. I wish she would give me the $3,000.00 she owes me. Now, that would make a nice Mother's Day present. I am looking forward to listening to today's trial. Why would she give him a card that said she loves him if she was going to break it off? Any thoughts?

murder, perjury & contempt of court is a defence?

Holy crap, why can't Nel keep pushing him on the issue of the window and making a sound when there was NO INTRUDER?! How is it possible to hear a noise when there was no intruder..

And why the heck doesn't OP's attorney stand up to try to put a stop to Nel's insistent badgering?
