Jason Rohde sentenced to effective 20 years for wife's murder. File Photo: Armand Hough / African News Agency CAPE TOWN - The Western Cape High Court sentenced convicted wife killer Jason Rohde to an effective 20 years behind bars on Wednesday. Judge Gayaat Salie-Hlophe described the murder as "brutal" and "shocking" and said it warranted a deviation from the minimum sentence of 15 years.
Turn into count two, which is also a serious crime, you are sentenced to five years of direct imprisonment. It is ordered that in terms of section 280 of the criminal procedure act, the three years of the five years imposed on count two shall run concurrently with that imposed on count one." Rohde, who was further declared unfit to possess a firearm, remained stony-faced throughout the sentence and was led down to court cells shortly afterwards.

UPDATE: Jason Rohde sentenced to 20 yearsJason Rohde was found guilty of murdering his wife Susan at the Spier Wine Estate hotel in 2016. Good however when adultery leads to murder the mistress should also be charged to a lesser degree. She knew that he had a wife and 3 daughters. May this haunt her for the rest of her life. Why was she not in court supporting him. Or does death make us part ?

Jason Rohde sentenced to effective 20 years in jailThe Western Cape High Court has sentenced Jason Rohde to an effective 20 years in prison for killing his wife Susan and staging her suicide in Stellenbosch in 2016. JennaEtheridge His actions resulted in the complete waste of two fantastic lives, not to mention those poor children who lost both parents. I hope other will learn from this repoting and hopefully, in some twisted way, this may serve as a deterrent waste WhatAShame JennaEtheridge Excellent 25 years would have been better. His mother told the court that her son was a sweet, kind, loving and perfect human being. Perfect delusional mother for a psychopath. JennaEtheridge He should have just made a run for it. Don't think that cop would be able to catch him 😂🤣

OPINIONISTA: Beware of wobbly legislative pillars aimed at constructing electoral majoritiesIt is the season of electoral gifts, including those of rushed, last-minute legislative offerings to eager constituents. South Africa’s fifth Parliament is pulling out all the stops to earn accolades for ‘a job well done’ and legislation passed ‘in the best interests of South Africans’. Much of the back story to this scramble is about political parties hoping to notch up electoral endorsements.
