jasper Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 As this was over a year ago, is there any update on the case? I am deeply touched by the events I have read here, my condolences to you, the Van wyk Family.
Grumpy Gato Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 This country's gone to the dogs.. I have no more sympathy for African people.. I know it's not good to generalize them, but too much has happened in this country for me to show any respect for them.Spoken like a true D..S! Read the thread - you will see it was a white guy who killed the cyclist. What has race got to do with this thread a.sh.le.

Bateleur1 Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Monique, once again my condolences to you and your family. It has been two years and I believe it would have been hard for you and your family. I am glad that you are saved the court case and I do believe justice was served. I just hope that all SA road users, cyclists and motorists, take note of this. It is not a playpark out there. Our actions and attitude on the road affects other peoples lives. Taking someones life on the road in a car crash is no joke, wether it was an accident or as a result of your own stupidity. I wish the arrive alive campaing will change the, "Speed kills" to "Attitude kills" slowpoke and Zerin 2

Warrior Princess Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Hi Monique. Condolences to you and your family. May you find the peace you need to carry on.
word Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Finally some justice for Merzanne van Wyk! Read it on: http://www.beeld.com...omself-20120708 Condolences to you and your family. This article is bitter justice and proves that KARMA does exist.
Delilah Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) My condolences, Van Wyk family. You have my respect and admiration for staying strong and for never giving up in your efforts to get justice for Merzanne. This latest development will surely leave you with unanswered questions, but take solace in knowing that your daughter's killer has been brought to justice (even if it was by his own hand) and that he will never hurt another cyclist.

Azonic Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Hit-and-run-man-commits-suicide-20120709 Lots of guys call him a coward in the comments. Got to agree, a coward. And then some people still try to defend him "imagine what he was going through". Shame. The only thing that was going through was a piece of lead, and that's the least he deserved. Good riddance, cyclists and runners everywhere are better off without his likes out on the roads. Delilah, Zerin and slowpoke 3
steve61 Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Hit and run suspect commits suicide 2012-07-09 09:04 [/url] http://www.news24.com/images/vertline.png ( Johannesburg - A Krugersdorp accountant charged with the death of an 18-year-old cyclist has committed suicide, Beeld reported on Monday. Wynand Venter, 35, was found in his Noordheuwel home on Friday night, with a gunshot wound to the head, and a pistol lying next to him. According to Beeld, Venter's lawyers began negotiating with the State last week in the hope of coming to a plea arrangement. Venter was charged with a hit-and-run accident involving Merzanne van Wyk, an 18-year-old matric pupil from Florida High School on the West Rand, on July 24 2010.
pastapouch Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Sad and tragic. Two families have lost a loved one. I hope that this go around and show to irresponsible drivers that you don't get away with bad driving habits. I don't think that justice have anyway been served, whether he has gone to jail for live, 10,20,30 years, because of one person two families lives have been affected in the worst possible manner.
