Hey Zulu, what happens to white dudes in South African prisons? I would have thought they'd be raped to death within the first few days. Or do they have to form Aryan Brotherhood style gangs for protection?

Good question. What about white dudes on stumps?

Nope. He's going to get majorly ass-raped

There are not enough white guys in prison there to form a gang. Jails are seriously 3rd world and AIDs is rampant

It's generally a good idea to avoid prison in non-1st world countries although his money might be able to buy him some protection

There's quite a few 1st world countries I think I'd rather avoid imprisonment in. The US being one...

Ok just playing devils advocate here. There is pretty much no dispute he shot her. The question is, is it manslaughter or murder. Did he intend to shoot dead his girlfriend or shoot an intruder. That's why I'm looking for a motive to shoot dead his girlfriend. I can't see one yet.

BTW. I have no opinion on murder or manslaughter. Haven't seen enough of the case to be a judge.

Not so much jealousy but control. Some men will go to extremes to control a woman they feel is not conforming to their rules or pulling away from the relationship . There was coverage that she had indicated she was afraid of him and his bad temper. Pity she did not heed those warning signs back then.

Anger management issues + obsession with guns.
