Krugersdorp Murders: Sentencing, Judge says it’s the worst case he has presided over in 18 years
On Monday the last remaining three will hear their fate.
The last remaining three accused in the Krugersdorp murders trial, Zak Valentine, Cecilia Steyn and Marcel Steyn are back in court on Monday to hear their fate, Krugersdorp News reports.
Judge Ellem Jacob Francis will deliver their sentences on Monday and is currently summarising the whole ordeal, saying it’s the worst-case he has presided over in his 18 years as a judge.
He said he found it shocking that the group, who dubbed themselves Electus per Deus, which is Latin for ‘chosen by God’, said they were Christians.
“They should have rather called themselves Elected by Lucifer,” he said.
The courtroom in the South Gauteng High Court is filled to the brim with family members, media and followers of this case.
