Roux turns to the extension cord – the state says it could not have reached to where Pistorius said he moved the fan. The cord went missing from the scene, which Masipa declared herself very unhappy about.

Roux says the defence does now have a photo that shows the cord was long enough to reach to the end of the bed, where Pistorius says he put it.

Moreover, says Roux, Van Rensburg told the court he did not touch anything in the room, but there is a photo of him with his hand on a plug.

We’re not saying conspiracy but we’re saying the scene was disturbed.

It is wrong for the state to call Pistorius a liar, Roux argues.

#oscartrial Roux: we understand that state doesn't have to close every avenue of escape...must show proven facts justify only one inference

Back to the night of the shooting. If it’s the state’s case that the couple were downstairs at 1am, eating and arguing, how does that fit with the state’s argument that she “hurriedly” got rid of her jeans and fled to the toilet? (These are the jeans that were photographed by police on top of the duvet on the floor.)

It can’t be true that Steenkamp was both making “bloodcurling, petrified screams” and also standing behind the bathroom door talking to Pistorius, he says. The state’s versions do not reconcile.

He says the state was forced to change his case after evidence proved that Steenkamp could not have screamed after she was shot. They then had to say the second set of noises were the shots, he says, as otherwise the evidence of female screaming did not fit the state’s case. But the defence insists the second set were the cricket bat. The state does not have an explanation for the first set of noises that the defence says were the shots.

#oscartrial Roux: Stipp tells us about accused shouting help help help at a time when no-one else heard it...that was after 3:30.

Roux says that for the state to rely on circumstantial evidence, it must say this evidence points to only one reasonable inference, and must not exclude other reasonable possibilities. But he says objective evidence does not fit the state version.

Even if the shots were the second set of noises, at 3.17am, Roux says, Pistorius would not have had time to do all the things the state says he did before help arrived.

The immediate neighbours who were witnesses for the defence were good witnesses, he says. They said the screaming came from a man with a high-pitched voice. Roux says the state is unable to deal with this material evidence.

Roux says he will take the court through the timeline on Friday to show that the state’s version of events does not add up.

CosmicQueen schrieb:Lustig fand ich auch die Tatsache das Van Rensburg ja ausgesagt hatte, er wäre auf dem Balkon gewesen und später behauptet ja Nel, der Fan war im Weg gewesen, also hätte O.P gar nicht auf dem Balkon gewesen sein können - da könnte ich mich totlachen drüber

@terry_levy Nel made a mistake giving Roux the last half an hour. Roux was full force. Was entertaining. Reasonable doubt was raised.

Terry Hall‏@terry_levy @andreappolis Gosh I loved it ... I'm like you "Go Barry" suddenly I felt it all coming together, actually making sense!!

d.h. Nel hat nicht nur nicht nachgemessen, sondern sogar gelogen , als er behauptete das Kabel sei nicht lang genug , das ist echt dreist
