only let out coz he is white..this would never happen to a black guy..not in south africa...cry,the beloved country...should've brought him to zimbabwe....
Want my opinion? This guy Pistorius did his girlfriend in. As he was sharing his bed with the girlfriend, wouldn't you think that if he heard a noise in the bathroom, the first thing he would do is to check her side of the bed to see if she was in it or not instead of just rushing for a gun, baseball bat start shooting and breaking down the bathroom door? How could he have got out of bed and not realized that his girlfriend was not in it if she was in the bathroom? How come the girlfriend was fully clothed when found in the bathroom? Why would the girlfriend who is spending the night with him barricade herself in the bathroom just to pass urine? If there was an intruder in the bathroom, why did he lock his girlfriend and himself in instead of running out with her for safety? Pistorius's story of shooting at "an intruder" in the bathroom simply does not jive. There is no way Pistorius could not have known that the person in that bathroom was his girlfriend. He knew that she was in the bathroom and "an intruder" is fabrication to get away with murder.
Only Oscar knows the truth! Reeva is not there anymore to explain anything! No amount of money can be put on a human's life! Nothing can bring her back to enjoy life as a young woman should. May the Lord's will be done. Heartfelt sympathy to the Steenkamp family.
