Mampara of the week: Peter Daubermann
A SNARLING CUR WITH A CRUEL BITE
When Peter Daubermann slid into court this week he embarked on an obscene display of abuse as he set out to discredit the character of witness Cheryl Zondi. For some inexplicable reason he thought this would help keep Timothy Omotoso out of jail.
He asked her how far the flamboyant pastor with a craving for Dayglo suits had penetrated her. He asked why when the pastor asked her to perform lewd acts on him she hadn't said no.
All Daubermann's smutty cross-examination achieved was to generate overwhelming public sympathy for the 22-year-old student. So, Daubermampara, the court of public opinion finds you guilty of gross and crass conduct. Please make your way posthaste to the smallest room in the house.
Don't worry, somebody will remember to flush...
