The Cape Town High Court will sentence minibus taxi driver Jacob Humphreys today for killing 10 children, and the attempted murder of four others.
At his last court appearance, State advocate Susan Galloway said Humphreys should be jailed for life.
While taking children to school in August 2010, Humphreys overtook a row of cars at the Buttskop level crossing in
Blackheath, ignored safety signals and drove over the tracks.
A train hit the taxi, killing ten children and seriously injuring four others.
