Limpopo man accused of killing seven family members breaks down in court 

OMW! do they teach these lawyers to talk softly in Law School...You cant hear a word they saying! That's a sign of lack of self confidence!

I didn’t see a single tear. Justice should be served

Doesn't matter if mentally ill or not, he must account.

When they were discussing his mental disorder, he, waited for the right moment to burst out crying indeed.

Generations should hire this man, this man can act 😂😂😂

There's no sickness that makes killing acceptable. He MUST account.

The Tears went on a strike for him zathi nix asiphumi🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

the guy is not mental ...he is cold hearted killer

He didn't break down, he screamed 😅

When his legal rep indicated he isnt knowledgeable enough to explain the condition of his client, the client was like "let me demonstrate it for you", then he went on acting

He was just acting. How can you cry without tears coming out. Bad acting.

He is acting not crying nothing is wrong with this cruel guy.

funny enough....soon as the Lawyer mentioned he's not in a position to explain what bipolar disorder it is...!!, he started crying to show the Judge example...😅

😢 why would you even want to listen to his story ... he killed innocent kids here. He must get 500 years in jail .

His not even crying like his going to jail, his crying like someone told him there's no easter bunny.

Demonic spirits are at work and us the church is asleep The devil is roaming around seeking whom he may devour

I thought he was crying for killing his family, but he’s worried about himself. Chai

People are possessed by demons and do gruesome things, when demons leave them, they are shocked at what they do that's what is happening to this young man. But people will say he's crazy

2 years ago, why do these cases take so long?

This killer can act. 😂😂 no tears but the illness makes him cry. Justice has to be served.

The way the other learned colleague is looking at him😂😂😂😂😂

Deserves a life sentence. So many lives taken. You can't blame that on a mental state.

No mental disorder here, he's just seeing the spirits of those he killed. He is haunted for life.

HE looks so cruel!

The lawyer, cameraman and the defendant should get an Oscar award. The storyline was well rehearsed. How the cameraman moved his/her camera from lawyer to the crying defendant was so instantaneous with lawyer`s eyes towards the same defendant.

One of the state's prosecutor's is staring at his collegue in disbelief. He can't believe that the documents he gave him a long time ago, he only started looking at them in the morning. The colleague in question looks like he's coming straight from groove.

I can see this man's face does not look right; I don't even know if he knows who he is most of the time. He is on medication. He also has psychosis with a severe mental illness like Bipolar disorder. I don't think people in his community would recognise his illness or the severity of it. As I can surmise from most of these comments people are very unaware of what typical behaviour vs abnormal behaviour looks like. To the untrained eye, nuances are easily dismissed as “acting”.

Why give him water...he must thoroughly suffer, eternal pain. May their souls rip❤

If it can be proven that he is mentally unstable do they imprison him in a different cell or they put him back to his community to slaughter the whole village?

Look at his eyes, there is no single 😭

Give that man a bells for a terrific performance 😂

The moment they say Bipolar, he remembered the disorder...🤣🤣

South Africa is never short of drama. This dude is performing, how can it be that he can pull a trigger more than seven times and cries like that? He was just yelling.

He deserve 200 life sentence

Mentally stable, he can remember things and know what is happening

I had bipolar disorder when i was teenager..... His acting is in high level. 😂😂😂😂😂

HE'S DISTURBED TO HEAR OF HIS DESEASE, HE'S NOT BOTHERED ABOUT THE LIVES HE HAS MURDERED, THIS IS A FAKE CRY, NO TEARS AT ALL, JUST DRAMA PLAYING OUT,

So do lawyers tell their clients to act in court? The judge wasn’t having it.😂😂

With the level of SAPS incompetence and corruption.The question is have they got the right man?? That first lawyer looks like he has a hang over. Something doesn't look right here, maybe he was tortured before coming to court. Mental status should have been established prior to this appearance. The judge knows something isn't right here, he wants to give this guy a chance to a fair trial.

OK guys labantu bagundwe wubani?😂😂😂 Phoyisa, lawyer and accused 😂😂😂

CRYING WITH NO TEARS

Is SABC broadcasting via cellphone?

He was supposed to get death sentences

Only demons can do such extreme evil. Human minds can be manipulated and controlled.

Not even a drop of tear just a perfect drama!

Let's vote ANC out this country need death penalty

South Africa is a movie

Not a single tear, he has no remorse, textbook psychopath

From reading some comments here, mental illness is misunderstood indeed!

His haircut though, it's like the barber used a machete. 😂😂

These lawyers are bad 😂😂😂

Not a chance. He is eyeing everyone to see how the act is going down.

He is putting himself in a big trap by answering the questions...his lawyer should advise him to not speak at all

His crying must not save him from being prosecuted accordingly since he did what did purposeful and prepared for doing it.

The magistrate laughed 😅😅😅😅 the scene as they try to convince him

The timing of the manifestation of his disorder is on point 😂😂 but again we are told that the very mentioning of one's mental condition may trigger the symptoms on spot.

Reminds me of that American woman who killed her two children and tried to cry during a tv news interview but could not shed a single tear!

It is very sad, they hear voices, telling them what to do. We need more psychiatrists and clinical psychologists to treat our people. I feel sorry for his family, because my sister also was treated for it.

This one is 100% ok he is just acting . Not even a single tear from his eyes . Let justice be served.

This guy he knows how to act look@his eyes u can c he's a cold blooded person without remorse he's saving himself not to get life sentence imagine how painful it is for those ppl when he was killing them nah justice must be served 😢

It is normal to have a mental break down, we all have mental issues but that doesn't warrant us to get away with murder. You should be prosecuted.

These people always behave in the same manner ...extreme violence followed by extreme emotion. Its like they can't predict any outcome from their behaviour.

Criminals like him must be sent for hard labour.

I am sure his worst fear is what they are going to do to him in prison

Hmmmmmm his pretending why is he looking at the judge as he yells with no tears. Did he yell like that when murdering people... his a complete danger to society.

Crying with no tears, awua, he must be sentenced heavily.

They way the lawyer looked at him when he started crying😭😂

Not a single tear🙄Usile nxaaaa ....he must get the sentence that he deserves

The internship lawyers doing their practice 😂 court the state of lies

15 second cry, no tears, haaaa, this is a cold blooded murderer, even the officers csn see that this animal is pretending. After all , him and his lawyer must have discuss that little show, bring back the death sentence, and criminals are living to nice in prison, tv, sports, nice food, you name it, most prisoners dont want to be outside cause of how they live inside. Bring back the DEATH PENALTY. EYE FOR EYE.

4:57 he looks like me when I didn't want to be beaten as a child 😅😢

Did I hear the judge laughing, he is even smiling while questioning him about his tantrums

An Oscar performance 😂 by the alleged perpetrator. It is clear he is 100% sane and guilty as charged

4:57 This is nonsense. This client murderer was coached by this lawyer. The lawyer lifting his hands shows that it was planned. Bad acting. 😡

I can't with all the comments saying its demons 😂 its 2023 we should start educating people on mental health.

Hai lol sana.his acting skills are on another level 😂😂😂😂😂..please send this man straight to jail with life time imprisonment!

This guy is acting for the cameras...and the award for best actor goes to....

A madman man or mental peoples they are not killers, believe me they just go round and round not bothering people, now this guy before killings was 💯 percent in mind so now he is mad 😡 really.

He started crying when he heard his lawyer say "disorder". In his mind he was like... oh no.

I don't see any tears 😮🤔🙄🙄🙄

He mightt have discussed this stunt with his lawyer

Tjoo why isnt this man acting drama on TV because this is Oscar worthy loool. No tears at all 😂😂😂

4:40 is a few seconds till this disorder kicks in 😂😂😂... Love how comforting & supporting the S.A.P.S officers are ...

Yohwe 😭7 people? How does he sleep at night 😢

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂the judge laughing also

Maybe he saw his family members that he murdered, they are torturing him by laughing at him.

The Lawyers today 😮😮😮😮😂😂😂😂😂😂dammit

Hoyu u khou di pengisa u tea u fariwa

"Shame poor man,, Satan took over in our lives...😭😭🙏🏽

They're going to somgaga him in prison

For me its the look of the other lawyer with spectacles 😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂

Seven died. If he has mental health we have experts to treat him while in jail

... that's not a breakdown ,I also react like that when i lost my money when playing Betway/Hollywoodbets

Limpopo is on a roll. First Rosemary then this MF.

Crocodile 🐊😅

Guys we seriously live in a movie as a country what is this it’s giving judge Judy 😂😂😂

This actor should just be jailed and hope he drops the soap everyday inside..nxa

And the award for worst actor goes to: Also, it's not a sleeping disorder, it's GUILT

A trial for what mentally ill or not he is quilty just put him away this court trial is not going to bring them back my opinion

Are people oblivious or purposely ridiculous? When a person is mentally ill, it means they are diagnosed by a psychiatrist it does not rule them out of being a murderer. So dont think we are taking the persons side when we say he is mentally ill nor does that justify what he did.
