A reminder for all who have been following this case that Oscar Pistorius will be sentenced tomorrow.

Dont wanna watch
Its horrible someone getting imprisoned
Its obvious he lied
In that latest documentary he was bringing stuff up(small details) that shouldnt matter

Never believed him but theres that question
Could he be innocent
problem  for him = NO witnesses
And dodgy testimony
and fact his own lawyers failed

The murder conviction is sound in my opinion regardless of who the victim was.  For the sake of argument, even if we believe him for a moment that he thought the person in the toilet was an intruder he did not have the right to shoot them to death.

His story is a bit like the toilet door, full of holes.

John:
Oscar Pistorius sentenced to 6 years in jail for the murder of Reeva Steenkamp!

Yes, that right, Masipa has done it again and given murderer Pistorius a sentence much lower than that of the15 years minimum set down by South African Law.  It seems life is extremely cheap in SA and especially so if you are a white athlete.

That sentence is an insult to victim Reeva Steenkamp and to justice.  Pistorius could now serve as little as two years in prison for the murder of his former girlfriend.

Judge Masipa told the Court that Pistorius has lost much and had shown great remorse!

I hope the prosecution appeal for a higher sentence.

Masipa seems to have a thing for Pistorius.

What doesn't she get about him deliberately taking a life.

Even now, he may only serve 3 years.
