I'm glad that evidence of conflict in the relationship was presented; the prosecution really needed it to support their case and "row" theory.
Today, Mrs. Annette Stipp testified as well. Her husband is Dr. Johan Stipp -- he is the doctor who first tended to Reeva and testified earlier in the trial.
Mrs. Stipp said she heard a man and woman yelling; the woman's screams sounded like a family murder. She heard three loud bangs and then three more before the screaming ended.
In cross-examination, Roux jumped on inconsistencies between the Stipps' eye/ear witness accounts -- she said she saw lights on in the bathroom, he said he saw lights on in both the bathroom and the toilet. Roux said the toilet light wasn't working at the time.
The trial is now expected to go until mid May.
