 Pretoria man gets life for killing couples in a brutal home attack


A 37-year-old Pretoria man has been sentenced to two life terms after he murdered a couple during a violent home invasion in January.


The Pretoria High Court found Raymond Steven Jan-Erick Smith guilty of killing Grant Cantello and his wife Heidi at their family home in Proclamation Hill.


Smith posed as a potential buyer after seeing the property listed online and visited the house three times before attacking on January 27. He tied up the elderly homeowners Gerald Cantello, 74, and Lilian Janson, 71, before fatally stabbing their son and daughter-in-law. A 16-year-old boy was also stabbed but managed to escape and call for help.


Smith was arrested the next day while washing bloodstained clothes at his home. In court, he pleaded guilty and asked for a lighter sentence, but Judge ruled the murders were premeditated and offered no grounds for leniency.


Apart from the two life sentences, Smith received three years for attempted murder and eight years for attempted robbery to run concurrently. He was also declared unfit to own a firearm.
