To be fair, she handled well.
The interpreter on the other hand must be from the same company as the Mandela funeral interpreter.

Why is the witness attacked in this way? Do these people have no shame? Surely the judge should set some guidelines?
I mean, why on earth would someone willingly put themselves through all that - in the name of justice?

I think they want to discredit the witnesses I also think that her statement might be too long. It is hard to remember every word very sentence. My lawyer always said "keep it short keep it simple" I will add to this. Don't use big words...

I think this will teach South Africans not to get involved or become a witness. I mean he asked the same question over and over again just the get the witness to say something else so that he could use it against her. I mean he even used the translator against the witness what type of creep does that? He tried to twist every word around he got corrected at some stage where it was pointed out he actually twisted the facts. Yes he apologised but in the end he only apologised because of the objection made otherwise he would just have carried on.
Oscar's legal team will play the witnesses against each other like he did today.

I also thought that she handled her testimony very well (the parts that I heard). I might have missed something, but after her statement I was wanting to ask why she didn't phone the police after the (incorrect) security firm hung up on her husband. It was, after all, such a traumatic event that she even feared someone was shot ...

On a similar vein, she claims to have been traumatised and it was dramatic, yet she went to sleep after hearing the screaming and 4 shots.
Going to sleep, so easily, seems to fly in the face of her trauma and how impactful the events were.

phoning the police will not help because they didn't know at that stage what house was "robbed" or who was in trouble. And you can't expect the police to go from door to door. That said I am more interested in this. Normally when you have a security system in your house it comes with panic buttons. So why not press the button set of the alarm? If he really was "that fearful" of an attacker... Then surely his alarm system had to have panic buttons I mean everyone that owns a alarm system and is with a security company knows where the panic buttons are. it is the first thing they show you.
