Judge Johnson to #SandileMantsoe: The deceased has no rights anymore, you've taken that away from her. The community has a right to know she did not die in vein, but for the rights of abused women. The community must be protected from men like you.

Judge Johnson: The court has no doubt that you are a threat to society. I say this from the callous way you’ve killed the deceased and tried to cover it up with your deceptions and lies. KM #SandileMantsoe #KaraboMokoena

Judge Johnson: you deserve nothing less than a harsh punishment. For you it cannot be Business as usual anymore. The court must remind you that a person’s life is not cheap. KM
