The social worker for Magolego finally handed in her report, despite her confirmation that it was ready during the previous postponement. She only handed it to the court on the morning of September 19, prompting yet another delay in the never-ending sentencing saga that has seen nearly a dozen postponements since April.

As the document had to be studied by the court, the case had to be postponed and all parties agreed on October 7 as the most appropriate date for the sentencing of Magolego, who is currently in custody and facing two more murder charges, one in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court, and the other in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court.
