[QUOTE=joeysteele;7260676I prefer a jury system of law for those pleading not guilty but I do think this Judge has done a really good job.[/QUOTE]

South African law is a very sophisticated modern system derived from Roman-Dutch, Westminster and Customs connected to the population. Its fair and relies on leading legal experts, Judges, to examine and decide the case. The Judge is able to chose Accessors to hear the evidence and give opinions. The Accessors are sometimes other judges or experts in fields relating to the type of evidence the case may provide.

I would rather have my fate was determined by experts rather than random individuals drawn from our society.

The Judge and two Accessors in the Pistorious case have done a sterling job applying the law and sifting through the hours of evidence.
