About David Greig
David Greig (1944 - 2009)
Brief overview:
David (65), a cattle and pig farmer from Hartzenbergfontein, and his wife, Jeanette (64), were woken up in their bedroom on the evening of 23rd January 2009, by an armed man that had entered the house presumably through a window.
The perpetrator made Jeanette open the kitchen door for his two accomplices. Greig was walking behind his wife and the man to the kitchen. Jeanette couldn't find the keys, they wrestled with the armed attacker, who shot Greig once in the head and twice in the chest. Grieg died on the kitchen floor.
The couple had been living on the farm for 18 years.
