I tried some different angles this week in court as it was day 11 of week 3. Here I was lying on my back shooting upwards as Steyn was leaning over to chat to Adv Anton Lerm.
My story
Im not gonna go into much details of the court proceedings but ill rather give my version of the happenings in court.
On Monday Mr. Steyn entered the courtroom and greeted me, so I responded and greeted him back. He also asked how my weekend was and the time away from court. I replied it was ok just busy at work as usual ext ext.
On Tuesday he was again much more relaxed in court and chatted some more to some journos and me and again asked me for some Coka Cola and laughed. He also said that I must have enough photos of him by now. I said yeah over a thousand or so. He also said that he remembered me from his first appearances in Krugersdorp and that he was very angry at me for shoving my lens so close to his face in getting my photo. He then added that he is not angry any more he knows why we do what we do.
When I got back to the office today I was asked to do a video interview about my experiences covering the case. You can view it on the link below.
