When the South African Supreme Court of Appeals repeatedly miscalculates the parole of Oscar Pistorius after trying to interpret their sentencing erroneously for the third time.
Acting Judge President Petse: “In reply thereto I advise, as is apparent from the judgment of this court delivered on
24 November 2017, that Mr Oscar L C Pistorius was sentenced by this court to an effective term of 13 years five months taking into account the period of 12 months imprisonment and correctional supervision of seven months (see paragraphs 24, 25 and 26 of the judgment). The order of this court is unqualified which means that the substituted sentence is effective from 24 November 2017 i.e. the date on which this court's judgment was delivered.”
My response: “What absolute bollocks! This is inconsistent with the SCA’s last two letters of clarification, one saying Oscar was eligible for parole in 2021.”
