Jason Rohde’s mistress faces crimen injuria charges
The National Prosecuting Authority wants to send a signal that slamming the judiciary won’t be tolerated. In a case seldom seen before a High Court, the mistress of wife killer Jason Rohde is facing crimen injuria charges for her outbursts against a judge and two investigators.
Estate agent Jolene Alterskye was having an affair with Rohde when he murdered his wife on a Stellenbosch wine farm in 2016.
She made a first appearance in the Cape Town magistrate’s court on Monday.
Alterskye was never called to testify in the murder trial.
But after Rohde was sentenced to 20 years in jail, Alterskye shot her mouth off.
In a Facebook post, she accused the two investigators of having taken bribes.
In an SMS, she accused Judge Gayaat Salie-Hlophe of corruption.
She was charged with crimen injuria, even though she apologised in a letter to the judge.
The NPA wants her to be tried in the Western Cape High Court.
But her lawyer William Booth wants to make representations to the NPA in this regard.
The case has been postponed to 10 March.
