It’s tulip isn’t it? It seems they’ve got a week for more arguments about what the sentence ought to be, rather than the judge just deciding for herself based on the evidence presented at the actual trial. Lets hope she is lenient so he doesn’t appeal.

They're now saying it will probably be adjourned till next month.

(Actually, that's probably not the best smiley given the circumstances...)

I can't believe that this is how trials are usually done in SA, surely if he was some non celeb the sentence wouldn't be long after the verdict.
