So had the uncle not confessed ,this girl would still be in the back yard?So Tshidis family hadnt noticed the paving had changed just the same time this girl had gone missing?Or they couldnt smell something since the grave was shallow?Nah they knew
We appreciate the great work you do for us women, men and children . Have been wanting this type of content covered in our country so that we may never forget and always remember our responsibility to continue to fight GBV for a safer SA, for all. Thank you!
She should've never been left there alone. When her friend left for work, she should've left for school. She was not safe being left there with the uncle. He didn't even go to work like he was supposed to. Oh my goodness. This is so sad.
I remember my friend went with Palesa to high school.. It was just soo sad.... Yeah noooo the police took their time with the investigation... It's a sad story... What a beautiful girl
I am a Caribbean woman living in America. I want to relocate to South Africa because even though I wasn't born there, my _soul_ was. Please be honest. Can I strive in SA or is it really _that_ bad for women?! Replies are greatly appreciated. Oh and I don't know it it matters but I am fighter, came from one of the most dangerous places in New York. I know how to move in the streets. I can drop a fully grown man if I'm Swift enough. What say you guys? Should I come or not?
There were too many possibilities at first. Police cannot go digging in people yards without a solid reason. Yes she was last seen at Tshidi's house and the uncles history of crime is another sign but you need concrete evidence (correlation does not imply causation). If the neighbors heard her scream or if someone saw the uncle digging then that is more concrete.
The guy had a criminal record with a conviction for robbery and assult. He had just returned from prison. And he was the last person to see her. How much more did they need to search premises!
@@thebaddie391 Its so infuriating. The first person the so called "friend" called is the uncle. Because she knew something. Even to the last moments she protects her murderous uncle. He responds by saying the community will kill him then goes on to hide at the police station. Shame on them!
So what's the back story? I think he made advances and she rejected him so he assaulted her, then murdered her and buried her. What I don't understand is how nobody noticed the freshly dug dirt and put two and two together? I think the friend and her family knew that he assaulted that girl. Maybe not immediately but they must have figured it out. Especially if he was the one who put the pavers down. Such a beautiful girl. My goodness....💔
May her soul rest in Peace 💔😭please can you do a video on the pregnant girl who was found hanging on the tree I'm sorry i don't know how to spell her name that story broke my heart 💔
This case was mishandled from the very beginning! Knowing he had just come outta prison/ was the last person to see her/described what she was wearing....should have at least attempted questioning. P.s: could have happened without the granny knowing, it's not impossible. So i hope she is not being punished/mistreated just for being related to him. RIP Babygirl🙏🏾
We all know those creepy uncles in our families, imagine you leave your friend with your creepy uncle. You can literally see nje ukuthi loEngabulala. I'm sorry but the family KNEW and maybe they pressured Tshidi to not say anything because families like to bury thinks under the rag. Man this case traumatized most of us.
I love you're upload on crime. As a true crime follower can I suggest that you create an alternative start to your uploads. More sombre start instead of the celebrity look. I absolutely love your content.
Why only Dumisani was arrested. Tshidi knew exactly what had happened. She problably helped her uncle with the paving. Anyway, Karma will deal with them all
Rip. I love these stories. It's so bad and sad but very educational to be aware of surroundings etc no women is safe these days. Wish for n heavy sentence upon that devil
I know this family personally and trust me they did all they could with what money they had, even as far as going to sangomas. They never gave up looking for her till they found her remains. That friends family knew exactly what happened to her because when they were looking for Palesa the friend never bothered to help look for her. Even the friends family decided to renovate the yard right after the police paid them a visit the first time. Trust me they did ALL they could to find Palesa.
This story is even more frustrating for being unfinished!! Why was she killed???? How did this uncle killed her and why??? Anybody please, and did he get sentenced?? For how long???
Sentensing is on the 26th of this month llike mentioned in the video. The uncle did not do a fulll confession as to why and how he did it. He opted not to. The only people who will ever know is the uncle and Palesa. Unfortunately she isnt here...therefore no one will ever know...we can only speculate.
Somehow I do think the anonymous call was from her friend she visited, possibly they were afraid of their uncle and decided after founding out they will tip the police anonymously
My parents never let me sleep over unless they personally knew the patents nd who stays in the house and to be honest i only remember going to houses with single mothers and their girl kids
Shoddy police work, that's what l call it. It is standard procedure for detectives to search for a missing person in the last known place they were seen. How the friend's house was never searched for all that while is a mystery. Cadaver dogs would have easily located her body and it would have saved the deceased's family the pain of waiting all those years to know about her brutal death.
No in Uyinene's case we blame Luyanda Botha. We always blame the perpetrators. However... corporates NEED to vet their potential employees...SAPO failed to do that.
@@theplug_truecrime and then we go to my original question, where are people that have been convicted supposed to work after being released. Luyanda is a horrible human, thats a given, someone in the comments said bodies were found where he lived. If that is the case he did not belong in society, but some people come back reformed. Or maybe its just wishful thinking on my part because I hope that correctional centres arent there to just keep offenders off the streets but actually CORRECT their behaviour. askies guys if I sound like ke manganga or Im condoning what these people did. Im just a curious person that wants to view things from different sides.
Please do a story on Mojabeng Tabo. She was brutally murdered by her Ex-boyfriend on her way to work. She worked as Professional Nurse at Bongani Regional Hospital in Welkom. 🙏🙏🙏
May her soul rest in peace 💔💔 It doesn't make sense at all a whole 2 years and the body was just at the back of Tshidi's house and nobody saw a thing 🙄.?? Very sad indeed
@@billysigudla yes it was buried at the back as I mentioned in my comment aswell. What I don't understand is how could the family of Tshidi not saw something for 2years. Tshidi's uncle was an ex convict he maybe just knew how to hide everything 💔💔 or the family knew everything and tried to protect the crook of an uncle
Just from visiting a friend then you end up killed and buried for something we still don't know why he did what he did 🤦🏽♀️ Death penalty must seriously come back now but nevertheless your content is on point and you really know how to address every detail 🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️ keep it up May her soul rest in peace 🙏💯 Can you also do the Story of the Nyamadzawo daughter who was allegedly killed by her mother (I think that's what it said) I didn't really get all the details but I know you will lol
He was recently released from jail and probably tried to make sexual advances towards her. She dismissed his advances, and that prompted him to physically assault her. This is highly probable!
This is utter bull. How did it take another 3 years to convict someone if everything pointed in his direction? Didnt the uncle's criminal record raise a red flag fom the onset? Didnt the friend, regarding her uncle having a record when Palesa couldn't be accounted for after having left her with him? The mere fact that he didnt go to work that Monday raised a lot of suspicion. This is very shoddy police work
It’s weird shame how she left after the residence of the house - maybe cos she really trusted her friend(obviously to a fault) but still 💔 We need to do better in teaching our kids about keeping safe I guess cos no1 wants to teach men to leave women alone
Wait!!!! So no one in the family or neighbours couldn’t smell when the body was deteriorating during that 3 years? In addition, the police couldn’t detect the uncle was lying when everyone else say they didn’t see her leaving the house/yard
The family didn't question the paving made out of stones? No man, they were supposed to have been arrested as well, because why did they keep quiet with such vital information.
Im generally paranoid...im not living my friend with any male friend or relative.If im going to work sisi you are waking up and going to your next destination the same time i go out for work thats how me and my friend operates.When she visits or when i visit.Just because my relative respects me doesnt mean they will respect my friend in my absence.
Police investigation is very amateurish. SA needs to take person’s disappearances with more seriousness ,invest in tools tand resources to make the process successful and efficient. A simple use of K-9 and cadaver dogs would have brought closure much quicker to the bereaved family. May the family find comfort in the guilty verdict.
1st clue was him describing what she wore without anyone asking him. Who does that unless they are guilty. Also, who called to give the clue to the police? Like the viewer is left in suspense there.
Till today we still don’t know why she was killed, but my opinion Tshidi wanted Palesa bf check on the interview that was made ko Soweto TV when the bf and Tshidi were doing the awareness campaign
I still believe that the whole family was involved in some way shape or form..... It was more of a sacrifice according to my observation..... Theres no way no one would not notice an unusual disturbance in the ground and u use almost everytime when u doing laundry.... Its just not possible
