Oscar should have been given a life sentence, the racial politics of that country as well his celebrity definitely played their part, i wonder what the result would have been if he was not famous and poor and black? i am sure most people know....
Race played no part in this. If he was wealthy and if he was black, even then he would have been let off with a light sentence. How can you claim that the Whites are getting preferential treatment in a country where the entire government and judicial mechanism is being run by the Africans? He was wealthy and he managed to bribe the judges. That is it.
