Blade Runner arrested over death of girlfriend - Page 3

Does get the old "Hmm...ometer" twitching, eh?

Bloke with no legs, lives in a gated community with a security guard who requires all vistors to sign in, hears a noise, has time to find his prosthetics, grab a gun, load it/take the safety off and fire four shots before his beloved can say "Hi honey, I'm home!"

Had to have been legless drunk.

More Oscar. My mail from SthAf is when paramedics arrived she was dead in the garden and he was inside the house "like nothing happened"

maybe she just shot herself

incidentally the dude keeps a machine gun in his bedroom

Four rounds shows great restraint then, really. At 600rpm he'd have pressed the trigger for less than half a second.

"Police said they have charged a 26-year-old man with murder..."

Did sound fishy as ****, didn't it?

Spikey · 14-02-2013, 04:35 AM

do you think his fake legs helped get him to the gun quicker

uvelocity · 14-02-2013, 04:43 AM

i think they gave him an unfair advantage

Burgey · 14-02-2013, 04:43 AM

Bail opposed. Allegations of shouting and yelling before shots fired, and previous domestic incidents as well.

Look, it's crass to say, but he's hardly a flight risk if they take away the blades, is he?

Spikey · 14-02-2013, 04:48 AM

you ever heard of carrying people??!

Burgey · 14-02-2013, 04:51 AM

Yeah but he can't fly without legs can he?

South African law doesn't appear to have things like manslaughter. Only 'culpable homicide' (which implies negligence but not intent).

Also, 'intent exists where the accused does not "mean" for the unlawful act to happen, but foresees the possibility that it could happen, and proceeds with his conduct anyway.'
