 * Random Thought

I wonder how was he deported. I mean, after being stripped of Canadian citizenship, wouldnt this have rendered him stateless, since he would have lost his South African citizenship upon acquiring Canadian citizenship?

Also, maybe the places where this guy was incarcerated would be helpful too.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.74.163.209 (talk) 11:49, 7 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Are you sure he would have lost his citizenship? He obtained his Canadian citizenship in 1993 and South African nationality law doesn't mention what happened pre 1995 altho post 1995 he could have retained both citizenships with an exemption. Either way   suggests he may have been able to regain his South African citizenship if it was lost due to his acquisition of Canadian citizenship in 1993. He may have already done this before the case came before the court (although it sounds like it was in 1998 the law was changed and that may have been after the fourth DNA test so I'm not sure). In any case, perhaps the Canadian authorities had discussions with the South African authorities and they guaranteed he could re-obtain his South African citizenship if he lost his Canadian citizenship so Canada didn't consider him stateless. (It may be the law or court cases in South Africa clearly established this.) Nil Einne (talk) 15:06, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Ages of the victims?
According to Forensic Files (episode Bad Blood), Candy was 20 years old and the step-daughter was 13 when they were both raped. According to this article, Candy was 23 and the other girl was 15. I realise this is not important to get exactly correct, but still. :| Nachturnal (talk) 03:16, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

The term serious sexual crime
The word "serious" carries little to no legal bearing in terms of defining sexual crimes, and is generally in poor taste. Arcsoda (talk) 19:24, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
