Pistorius trial - undue weight? edit

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

From the article: "Masipa was the presiding judge in the trial of Oscar Pistorius for the murder[undue weight? – discuss]". No, I don't think it's undue weight. This is a trial of international interest. Omc (talk) 18:18, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
