Dr. David Klatzow helped crack cases like the Brett Kebble murder and the Helderberg crash, and is now involved in the Pistorius case. When he hosts a murder mystery weekend, you go.
And what better venue for a murder mystery weekend, then the town of Stanford – just 10 minutes outside Hermanus.
You’ll recall Klatzow’s book, Steeped in blood, which was reviewed by Simon Burrow. An excerpt:
Klatzow takes the reader through several high profile cases and, probably, the one which has the most appeal beyond the legal fraternity is the South African Helderberg 747 crash in 1987. Drawing on evidence and with some quite exceptional forensic work, he uncovers the massive cover up by the apartheid Government. It makes for absorbing reading.
No stone is unturned in the quest for the truth and insights on such other high-profile cases such as the Kebble affair, numerous apartheid atrocities and, more recently, the van der Vyver case keep the reader turning page after page.
The author relates numerous examples of how conflicts of fact had to be resolved during the cases that he was involved in and that in most of them, his opinions were accepted by the judges presiding.

If you have ever been gripped by a massive court case like those mentioned above (and indeed the Pistorius case), an opportunity like this is not to be missed.

MURDER MYSTERY WEEKEND
Date: 31 August
Price: R500 per person
Includes:
A candlelit dinner at the Stanford Hotel, a lecture on forensics and crime scene investigation by Dr Klatzow, note books, pens and other necessities, early Sunday morning coffee & muffins and brunch before departure.
So you’ll be cruising around with a bunch of people who are also there for the weekend and sometime during the course of the evening, someone is going to be murdered – and YOU will have to work out who killed them – and how. But you’ll be doing it side-by-side with one of the world’s greatest forensic scientists. Think about that for a second.
And think about being able to quiz him about his various cases. This is truly an incredible opportunity.
