What will the court rule in the case of Oscar Pistorius, the Blade Runner, who shot and killed his girlfriend?

Settlement proposals

Please check if any final result proposed here has really happened. Is there a reliable source for this information? Is the proposed cut-off date before the time when the final result became certain beyond reasonable doubt? Did the trader proposing the final result refrain from cheating with quick last trades? If these checks are positive, please vote "Yes" for settlement else "No".

§ Judgement rule

First trial result, before any appeals, after bail hearing. If convicted of multiple charges, the one carrying the highest prison term will be judged as the Final Answer.

  There is already a result proposal for "manslaughter" with the correct cut-off/settlement day from almost 3 days ago. Voting will close in 6 hours. Just vote Yes for that one.
  
  PS: A wrong cut-off day would allow participants to profit in full knowledge of the final result, so that's no good.

  Shouldn't we wait for a possible appeal by the NPA, i.e. 14 days?

  I do not think that this has been decided by the court already, so there is no "result" yet. Or has it? For now, you can "enter your prediction" to participate and for a chance to win the prize

  For all newcomers: "Trading" means trading on Prediki's forecast market which is the way to win the incentive / i.e. the prize money. The ultimate result can be entered and spported on this page once the court has actually ruled.
