OJ Part 2: The Oscar Pistorius Case

What's up, people? Andrew here once again.

So if you watched last years' Olympics and fell in love with the Blade Runner aka Oscar Pistorius, then please read this story.

Earlier this month, Pistorius' girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, a South African model, began to celebrate Valentines Day. She is also a supporter to end rape and violence against women. She was supposed to attend a seminar to end rape and violence against women the next day. Unfortunately that didn't happen. On February 13, Steenkamp arrived at her boyfriend's home, where Pistorius claims he mistook her for an intruder and shot her. The next day, February 14, Pistorius was arrested and charged with murder in the alleged shooting death of Steenkamp. February 15; Pistorius went to court, where he wept after prosecutors announced that a charge of premeditated murder would be pursued. Steenkamp perviously appead on a South African reality show "Tropika Island of Treasure" before her death. The show previously wasn't scheduled to air, but producers decied to air it after consulting with Steenkamp's family; the decision was not based on ratings.

I'll skip to the end of the of the story because this is too much for me. On February 22, Pistorius was granted bail. His next court appearance on June 4. As side effects of his bail, he must surrender his passport and all travel documents. He will also be forced to turn in all of his weapons and firearms, and is prohibited from purchasing or owning additional firearms. He will report to a probation and correctional officer upon his release and until the case ends.

Now to my point (sorry if you read all this): Pistorius shooting his girlfriend was horrible. I don't really believe he thought that he heard an intruder in his house, unless he knew that Steenkamp left the house and was sleeping at the time. There were rumors that neighbors heard an argument between them so I believe that there was an argument between them, Pistorius was furious for a dumb reason, wouldn't have it with Steemkamp, got a gun and shot her. He should be locked up for a long time for shooting someone anyway, and probably for lying too, if he was. Pistorius was a hero to not only to paraplegics but also to his home country. He deserves what he gets.
Good night, all.
