Double-Murderer walks free from court
What is our society coming to, when a convicted double-murderer is spared jail because the court doesn’t foresee him repeating his crime?
In December 2005, Andries Mashele’s wife told him that she was leaving him. He was so enraged that he took his gun and murdered his wife and 4 year old son. He then turned the gun on himself, but survived.
Now Judge Ronel Tolmay of the Pretoria High Court has convicted him without ANY jail time at all!
Mashele got 10 years imprisonment, suspended for 5 years. He also has to complete 800 hours community service and to pay his deceased wife’s family a mere R2000.
