That’s Not what both the courts said which is why he wasn’t convicted and sentenced for premeditated murder. Another one who is speculating without offering any actual FACTS !!!!
So, Sherlock, why didn't he put his protheses on? Doesn't make sense if you want to intimidate so. This is one of PLENTY aspects, that supports his version. You're just one of many who likes to judge and condemn.
@@user-bj2lu9qt3o thank she might have planned to leave him, he got angry and shot her 9 times. He was in bed so he would not have his prosthesis on. I don't really care, because women never use their head. I would ask myself before dating him if I were the one with those legs would he want me? I bet not.
I saw Oscar and the people he hung around with. It was just a matter of time until someone got hurt. It’s a real pity it was Reeva. She was lovely. Inside and out.
I am a disabled petite lady. I don't have a firearm. I am a survivor of marital of rape. Strangulation and so much more. Oscar if he is a real man which he isn't would do all his time no parole. I know exactly what happened that night because I have lived it. Narcs are brilliant at lying. Acting they do so well. Personally I think he has temporal ADHD. MPD.OCD. Reeva a brilliant person, too young to understand the danger she was in should have applied the following rule. Get away get away get away, go no contact. Oscar will live a tortured life because he is narcissistic. Won't be going to Pretoria South Africa any time soon and I live in this violent crime infested country. How ever I love my country and its people. Blessings
I think South Africa is a beautiful country and about a decade or so ago I was considering moving there. However when I researched and discovered the high rates of violent crime against women I backed out of the driveway fast. This trial brought further light to the problem.
@truthseeker261 Projection exactly. Just to add, people often accuse others of what they are guilty of. So I am more inclined to suspect OP at the very least could also be a Narc. Typically they tend to somehow make *everything* about them.
His story doesn't make sense to me. If I hear something in my house, the first thing I would think is that one of my relatives, kids, wife, is inside a bathroom, not a burglar.
Put yourself in his position. You have no legs. You wake up suddenly from a noise in your house. You are still half asleep. You are at your most vulnerable. I agree he should have probably shot a warning shot first but when you are in that position you are not thinking straight. The first judge was correct, it was manslaughter not murder but they made an example of him. He served more than half his sentence and should have been released a long time ago. Also Miss Reeva Steenkamp was not as innocent as everyone thinks. She only dated him because of his fame. Who says they were even sleeping in the same bed since they did have a fight that evening. Only he knows what really happened and I believe him, not the story the police came up with.
@@neilaucamp2389REEVA WAS NOT AS INNOCENT AS EVERYONE THINKS YOU SAY !, WHAT THE FCUK HAS THAT GOT TO DO WITH IT ? LISTEN !, IF YOU HEAR A NOISE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT !, NOBODY IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD JUST PICK UP A GUN AND SHOOT IT THROUGH A DOOR AND NOT KNOWING WHO IT WAS !, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOUR MISSUS IS IN THE SAME BED AS YOU AND THE ODDS ARE THAT IT'S HER IN THAT BATHROOM ? AND ANYBODY IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD CHECK IN THE BED IF YOUR MISSUS WAS THERE !, NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THIS AND TRY TO DEFEND OSCAR PISTORIOS HE SHOULD HAVE CHECKED IF REEVA WAS IN BED BEFORE HE SHOT !, HE'S VERY LUCKY THAT HE'S GOT A CHANCE TO LIVE HIS LUFE AGAIN !, THAT POOR GIRL CAN'T 🙏🏴
EXACTLY !He said he spoke to Reeva when he went to get the fan off the balcony and REEVA ASKED if he couldn't sleep ! He then HEARS a noise and GRABS his gun and goes to the bathroom ! Empties his gun and shouts for REEVA to phone the police !, HE THEN SAYS in his statement he tries to break down the door and REALISES it could be REEVA IN the bathroom ? HOW the fcuk can this be ? HE already said REEVA asked him if he couldn't sleep when he was bringing in the fan off the balcony so when he went with his gun to the bathroom he knew it couldn't have been REEVA coz he just spoke to her when she was in bed and he was bringing the fan in ? SO HOW CAN HE THEN SAY he realised it could have been REEVA IN the bathroom ! Nah ! He MURDER that poor girl!, luv and Respect from London 🏴 my friend 👍👊🙏🏴
If you knew the layout of the bathroom and house, perhaps you would understand that selecting that window to enter would have made perfect sense, actually.
I think Oscar’s story was that he heard the bathroom window squeak open and believed a burglar had entered through the window. I have to wonder if it was possible that Reeva opened the window in an effort to get out. What a tragic story.
My question is, if she was simply using the bathroom and not hiding from him, why was the bathroom door locked? That one lady said it perfectly. Reeva will never die. Her story will echo as a voice for change forever.
I agree. The locked door does not make sense to me. I don't know anyone that locks a toilet door when home alone with their partner. If not for the locked door, I might have believed his story.
You opinionated people clearly have never lived in South Africa. Locking doors is taught to toddlers like washing hands. An uneducated comment. Why are you even commenting?
HANG ON ? SO YOU SAID THAT HE WENT ON THE BALCONY TO BRING IN THE FAN AND REEVA ASKED HIM IF HE COULDN'T SLEEP !, HE THEN HEARS A NOISE AND GRABS HIS GUN AND GOES TO THE BATHROOM ! HE SHOUTS GET OUT OF MY HOUSE !, SHOOTS AND SHOUTS REEVA FONE THE POLICE !, HE THEN TRIES TO GET IN THE BATHROOM ! HIS STATEMENT THEN SAYS HE THEN REALISES IT COULD BE REEVA ? HOW CAN THAT BE ? HE KNOWS HE HAS JUST SPOKEN TO HER WHEN HE WENT ON THE BALCONY TO GET THE FAN AND SHE ASKED HIM IF HE COULDN'T SLEEP SO HE KNEW THAT IT WASNT REEVA IN THE BATHROOM !, SO HOW CAN HE THEN SAY LATER THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN REEVA ? IMPOSSIBLE ? HE MURDERED REEVA IN A FIT OF RAGE ? IMO ? THEY ARGUED AN FOUGHT AND HE PULLED OUT HIS GUN ? SHE RAN SCARED AND WENT TO THE BATHROOM AND LOCKED HERSELF IN THERE SO HE COULDN'T GET AT HER ! HE CAME TO THE BATHROOM RAGING AND TOLD HER TO OPEN THE DOOR AND WHEN SHE DIDN'T HE JUST EMPTIED THE GUN THROUGH THAT DOOR IN A RAGE !, HOW MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD LOCK THERE BATHROOM DOOR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN THERES ONLY YOU AND YOUR PARTNER IN THE HOUSE ? NAH ! SHE LOCKED IT FOR A REASON AND THAT WAS TO PROTECT HERSELF FROM HIM !, I WISH I WAS IN THAT COURTROOM COZ I CAN PICK HIS STATEMENT APART AND IM NO LAWYER !, HE MURDERED REEVA GUYS SO DON'T EVER FEEL SORRY FOR THIS COLD BLOODED MURDERER !, RESPECT AND LUV TO YOU ALL FROM LONDON 🏴🙏👊🏴
@paulbowman1762…When he was moving the fans she got out of bed and went into the bathroom to use the toilet. She opened the window in the bathroom and it made a very loud noise and scared him. The room was totally blacked out and he didn’t see or hear her get up. So obviously he thought she was still in bed and the noise was an intruder l. I mean, this is all just common sense. Accidental shootings do happen. All the time actually. I don’t know why people refuse to believe his story. He was found innocent of murdeing Reeva. At that point in time, he had received multiple death threats so, I wouldn’t call it paranoia. I would call it legitimate fear. Btw….South Africa is not the safest place in the world. In fact, it’s actually a pretty violent place. And also….I lock my bathroom door at 3 am. Why ?? Because I was a victim of a violent home invasion 25 years ago. And 4 months ago I found a prowler in my back yard (different house). It brought back all that fear from 25 years ago. So yeah, I lock my bathroom door at 3 am and I don’t care what you or anyone else thinks or says about that. You’re judging Oscar’s choices based on your own life experience. Some people have different, and sometimes very traumatic, life experiences. Try to think outside the box. You aren’t a lawyer and thank God for that because you wouldn’t be a very good one. You lack life experience, common sense, and critical thinking skills. Also…..why all the capitalizations ??? Are you that desperate for attention ? 🤔
His traumatic life experiences were relayed during the trial, yes. How traumatised he was as a child with a deep seated 'fear' of attack. Yet, despite that he left the sliding door to the balcony open (what's the most important to address first, your life long fear or being hot), this after he had removed his prosthetics (put himself in a vulnerable state), with his girlfriend (who he wants to protect inclusive of himself) beside him and then went to sleep? Knowing people had worked/were working at his house and that there were ladders outside? Then after he had fired the shots through the toilet door, he's still too scared to turn the lights on? Who doesn't turn the light on when it is 'pitch dark', you've fired shots and there is still no movement? How will you see the intruder at a distance in order to take proper aim with zero light (it was pitch dark in the room as per his testimony). When he told Reeva 'to phone the police' while he was retrieving his gun and she didn't respond at all - that didn't move him to make sure that she had heard him with simply 'Reeva'? The only conclusion we can come to then is that he assumed - assumed she was in bed, assumed she had heard him, even though there was no response from her at his instruction, no sound of movement, no affirmation, nothing. His ears weren't ringing then, were they? Surely his house was fitted with an alarm system, seeing how afraid he had always been since childhood, inclusive of being a celebrity of sorts and due to his vulnerability when without his prosthetics? An alarm system has a 'panic button' function in case of emergencies, usually linked to an armed-response security service. If so, why wasn't this utilised immediately upon hearing 'the noise'? As for his parole, nothing can bring Reeva back, ever. Not even a thousand years in prison. He will have to live with 'his truth', whatever that truly is, for the rest of his life. People will never look at him the same as before all this happened, he will also have to live with that. Hard fact.
@@ROYALROCKETRONINan accidental shooting would be 1 shot, not 4 at different angles, it would not include bat marks on the bath ir the door. He murdered her in a fit of rage. Dtop rallying for him hes not a nice person. I know, l met him years before. Very nasty person underneath the public facade
Some of these comments are so infuriating. If you don’t know enough about the case, then why would you comment and pass judgment educate yourself first then make a comment. 🙄
And if you are black. No justice in SA. WHO KILLED WHISTLEBLOWERS? and got away with it. To many opions. A opinion is like a a----h----. Everybody has one.
I they lived and slept together, why would she have locked the door. She would most probably not even have closed the door. She locked herself in because they were fighting and Oscar tried to kick open the door but she wouldn't come out. That is when he decided to get his gun and shoot her. There is no other version that makes sense besides this one.
@@ithabeleng83yeah some very significant facts were overlooked. Even in senzo meyiwe trial...they dont like ti convict popular people like this oscar chatacter or kelly the killer
I’m 26 close to her age, & never been in a relationship, cases give me relationship paranoia. The man was known, accomplished & disabled yet still had the gut to murder her in cold blood.
That young lady life was taken so badly but the boy served his punishment , we have seen worse in this country and her family has decided to just let the courts decide
That will not be mentioned because these illegal immigrants wanted to paint a picture that SAn criminal justice is weak because theywerre let off the hook for their drugs crime
1 in every 10 people Do not have or is likely to have a gun in SA. Get your facts straight. That's why South Africans should tell our own stories. Stop sensationalising everything. We ,as a Nation are saddened by this event and pray for Justice to prevail. RIP Reeva ❤
I remember when this first broke. Radio to say something dreadful has happened in the world of sport to Oscar Pistorius, all we know is Pistorius believed an intruder had entered and Pistorius has shot and killed his girlfriend mistaking her for the intruder. A very sad state of affairs and more as we get it …!
Eugh! Yeah you're right. I've been through this nightmare of a system myself. It's corrupt right through, for the right people. Power, money, staus and influence
I met my wife in a coffee shop early one morning, I asked her out the same day - By the end of the date I was head over hills in love with her, we have been happily married for 4 years... Its very possible to fall in love and know its love after 1 date. I'm 100% sure I'm not the only one that knows this. Nothing to do with Oscar - Just wanted to enlighten @janeceeastwood8035
After being together for 2 months, I married my husband. We have now been happily married for 30 years! I can absolutely believe that one can be so deeply in love if you meet your person. ❤
He's a narcissistic, paranoid mess. Arrogant and entitled. This beautiful lady lost her life for one reason. She did not do what she was instructed to do. Before you go to sleep, bring in the fans and lock the doors. When he woke up and saw that she was asleep and those doors were still open, he lost it. Because he rightly or wrongly see's intruders around every corner. And it triggered him. She must have been terrified. And fled to the bathroom for protection. I don't think he meant to kill her. He clearly believes that he is better than anyone else. And no one has ever held him accountable for the BS he has done over the years.
ironically...it was his narcissistic arrogance that fueled his athletic career. It also propelled him to violence and to shoot his girlfriend. I didn't like him before the murder, but I was sorry to be proven right by the death of a human .
An intruder broke in to use the bathroom? You heard an intruder and your first instinct was to grab your gun and head TOWARDS the intruder, even though you were “terrified”? You heard an intruder and your first instinct wasn’t to move towards your girlfriend to protect her?
Ever heard of FIGHT or flight response? It's not flight for everyone. If you cannot flee, you HAVE TO fight, meaning to go towards the danger. Have you seen him without protheses? I could make him fall with one push.
He wouldn't move towards his girlfriend, because she was already in the bathroom hiding. Our first instinct when we sense an intruder may be in our house
His house is situated inside a high security estate. The chances of break ins is very small. It does happen, of course, but is is not a house in a normal suburb. The courts ruled 13 years. He served majority of his time. If I was perfect, I would judge, but I am not. He forever has to live with the knowledge that he killed someone.
So when he whispered to Reeva call the police where was she ? If he claims he didn’t know where she was then who was he whispering to ‘to call the police’ his contradicting himself ! Man he killed the girlfriend & that’s Africa for u 💯
Nowhere has it been mentioned that Oscar's horrific boating accident that caused him life threatening brain trauma which produced dramatic personality changes that his friends and family brought to light in interviews, may have played into what happened. The same type of damage experienced by football defense linemen who have experienced repeated concussive brain injury after years of being tackled. From lack of impulse control , judgement, paranoia and violence, these victims become capable of anything from suicide to homicide and dementia. Oscar may have continued to be the good-natured, altruistic, compassionate, generous person he was before the accident. Nothing in his upbringing suggests he was a born psychopath. He knew he was loved and he gave as good as he got. He would have retired to have a family of his own maybe after a career that would have included Olympic gold. It is a tragedy for all concerned!
Understanding his situation is fine, but allowing the risk of another innocent person to test, if he is now able to control his uncontrollable urges is not fine.
He has served his time people, give it a rest, where is the moral uproar for the thousands of woman and children murdered in the years since his sentence? Where most sentences are less where are you all holding the government accountable? Where was the uproar after the court let Dewani go? Where were you all then? At least he served his sentence, what about those who never do??
So pleased you can agree with me. There are so many that just walk free. But he served time and I am pleased he is out and people should learn to forgive like we were forgiven
I am so happy that someone else feels the same. And nobody out there really knows what happened. So leave Oscar alone. Let him rest and carry on with his life.
@@MarethaDeJager Only one person made it out of his house alive on that fateful night and it wasn't Reeva. So, what do you think happened? Oscar is a killer and got a way too lenient sentence. Murder should carry the death penalty or at least life without parole. I am disgusted as to how little time he served for taking a life.
The question is this; if his original conviction was murder , would he have received a sentence of only 15years ? If the answer is yes, then he is not the problem, the SA justice system is. RIP. Reeva.
I truly cannot understand how anyone can think that the State's version of what transpired the night Oscar killed Reeva makes more sense than Oscar's version. Even taking into account that he may not or probably wasn't 100% truthful, his version is still more plausible and believable than the State's. The trial was a travesty and the subsequent legal abuse he was subjected to is disgustingly shameful.
Absolutely Well Said and there are many people who agree totally with you . Nel was a horrible man who couldn’t accept the CH verdict and was determined to take Oscar to the court of appeal where he was greeted by heavily biased judges who let their emotions get in the way of common sense and sided with Nel. Really shocking behaviour !!!!!
The one thing that has always bothered me and maybe some ladies can give their opinion, if they were 3 months in a relationship, they knew each other and it was valentines.....Is it not rare for a girl to go to the bathroom in the dark and lock the door? Normally because of the relationship being so new, you go to the loo but dont lock the door, close it maybe...if it was me, the door would have been open, its a big house, its dark, I would want the door open especially because Oscar was not in the bathroom with her so privacy was not an issue......it is the one thing that makes me not believe his story....why was the door locked? UNLESS she did go to the loo with the door open, she may have wanted some air so opened the window, she then hears Oscar's call to her that someone is in the house, not wanting to bring attention to herself she closes the door and locks it then, Oscar hears this and thinks that criminals have come in through the window and into the toilet. It's enough to create reasonable doubt.....
Oscar Pisstorius married John C. Mongrel in a Civil Ceremony at Kgosi Mampuru Prison on Saturday. The Band Dirty Skirts played for the guests and there was a bouquet throwing and orderves. We wish the couple many happy years ahead.
There is a movie about a woman who got away with murder ,based on a book THE TWO MRS GRENVILLES-it is based on a true story.She also claimed an intruder was in her house.It´s quite interesting.
This guy story is full of shit. Especially the mention that he was talking to Reeva as he walked toward bathroom. If he talked to her or asked to call police did she not respond?also just blasting away with firearm without being certain someone was in locked bathroom does not make sense. If intruder did lock themselves in bathroom and you are in good position with a firearm you have upper hand. Where is intruder going to go? You get cover and call police while firearm is pointed and trained on bathroom door. If there is movement from bathroom door with no response after yelling a few commands than i can see firing weapon.
Up North in South Africa ,, life is so different. You always have to expect to be robbed or loose your car . They like your car , they fetch it . Down South ,, completely opposite . Lovely and peaceful and everybody knows everybody...xx
Personally, having watched and listened to many other documentaries about murderers before, during & after trial, I've never once heard of one who cried incessantly, swore they were innocent of murder, or thrown up in court over their actions. Tho I accept that speaks to remorse but not necessarily innocence nonetheless I can't help feeling he may have acted on impulse & be more guilty of manslaughter than murder - the latter obviously implies intent which really wasn't fully determined in court IMHO!
Actually it was... he admitted to shooting to kill. That in my eyes is murder. Furthermore he had other incedences where he just radomly fired a gun, scaring the sh** out of people. He is either not sane, or he thinks he can get away with anything
He should have been given Life Imprisonment My comment on this video I live in South Africa and he intentionally murdered her. He was an extremely controlling person. My Daughters Boyfriend waa at school with him said he wasn't a good person. He has assaulted 2 other Women he was dating. Reeva was seeing her ex Boyfriend who she had previously dated Springbok rugby player Francois Hougaard and I believe Oscar found out about it. I believe when he started getting aggressive with her she ran into the bathroom and locked the door. He became enraged and opened fire on her she was sitting on the toilet seat. He should have been sentenced to life.
@@yvettedurbangirlsa For some one to be sentenced to life you need to prove it was a premeditated act which the prosecution failed to do even though they tried hard but failed . Also, other people who knew Oscar very well have all said he was and is a very nice and caring person which contradicts what you’re saying about him. She wasn’t seeing a former boyfriend either. Oscar’s version was accepted by both the courts which is why he wasnt given a life sentence . You don’t know what went on in the early hours of that morning and all you’re doing is making assumptions based on your biased and not factual opinion !!!!!
@@goldenautumn3073 It wasn’t gutless acting at all . Oscar was in an emotional state before during and after the trial . The world watched the trial and I’m not surprised that Oscar let his anguish show under those circumstances . You know Nothing 🙄
He has a liver disease called porphyria. American expert on disease wrote book about Oscar and disease. Even sulfur in red wine can cause hallucinations. I know cos I have it too. I’ve spent 6 days in hospital taking wrong meds. It can cause death or coma. His legs could’ve been caused by this disease
I hope that parents would try very hard to teach their kids on the delicateness of Love. Teach them to rise above the pain that it might bring them so they never have to find themselves in this situation.

4 shots into the bathroom because he heard noises but didnt first check if ot was her...Claims combat mode but was never in any combat situations. Hes guilty of 1st degree murder and should never be free
It's unusual to LOCK (not close) an en-suite bathroom door when one wakes up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. Especially because it was just the two of them in the house. Why did she do that? His version does not add up.
you all in the comment section is going on about he shouldn't have been released he served his maximum time in jail for what happened...btw there is murderers going to jail for 2 years max and then you all don't even say a thing
@@elizabethmorley7416 similar but not the same. During the trial, they actually had weapon experts there explaining why RIva's enjuries were so bad. I actually remember thinking that those bullets should be forbidden
If it was just an ordinary person would people still have so much outrage ? I don’t think they would and Oscar was granted parole after careful consideration by the parole board . Just leave the man alone now !!!!
@@stivs06 Well the parole board and other important people all disagree with you . They all said Oscar had shown remorse and was eligible for parole . I’m Not interested in your opinion anyway as it’s Biased and Wrong . If he was that dangerous they would have kept him inside but they didn’t . Enough Said.
@@tina5203 I'm always wondering where these floods of dumb and deeply hateful comments come from. From which countries? SA? 95% of them obviously didn't even watch the trial.
Why is everyone commenting on this that can happen to anyone anytime. Leave the story its their story and not yours, you have nothing to do with these people, reasons or outcomes of the situations. They are people like you and me we all do make mistakes or do you want to throw the first stone? So in other words mind your own business
If heard a noise wouldn’t you turn to the person lying next to & say something. Instead he didn’t even look he just raced & did what he did. Why shoot behind a close door esp if it was close. I think it was her hiding after an argument & locked herself in the toilet. Why did neighbours hear a woman screaming.
The fact she locked the bathroom door. Remember he only screamed out after hearing the noise in the bathroom so it wasn't because she thought there was an intruder she was running and locking herself away from HIM. The fact that he told security everything was fine there while he was trying to put a story together. So guilty. So SO guilty!!!!!!!!!!!
The death of Reeva Steenkamp is devastating and heartbreaking. My Goodness! My heart goes out with her family. My Lord, what next ? the world is full of dangerous people! *Why did he do that? * Beautiful lady, nothing will replace your life. Your death shocked the world.May the good Lord bless your soul.RIP Reeva.Psalm 48:14 🙏
@@moonwitch1 ok answer me truthfully now ok. Have you got up for a wee in the dead of night ? Did you lock the bathroom door? I think she was scared of him and hiding and he lost his shit.
@Hellstothenaw Yes, maybe. Mad situation wasn't it that one. I remember when it happened , the news said he shot at an intruder and his gf is dead, and oh, what a tragedy, poor Oscar, etc. We will never know the exact truth as Oscar fought for his life in court, didn't he. He was not a steady character. I think he got mad at her for something, and she ran to the bathroom and locked it, and he shot her, not really thinking it would hit her or kill her. Did she have a cellphone in the bathroom with her? Icr. If so, the last calls or messages would be something to look at.
Tragic tragic mistake 😪 and Oscar has paid the price! I am so happy he is finally free, he should have never been imprisoned, the deed is punishment enough. Ì pray he goes on to live a productive and meaningful life❤
This was a terrible injustice. I know as sure as anything precious in life that this man suffered both the loss of his girlfriend, as well as the suffering he endured because people had a mob mentality and would have thrown stones if they could have. He also wanted to punish himself because he couldn't forgive himself for that terrible mistake through a misunderstanding of the circumstance. He felt that he needed to punish himself, and stood as condemned. He deserves to go forward, to live a great life for both himself and Reeva. She wants him to , because it will give her peace. I know she understands.
I think he has sevrved enough time.Just remember His sentence is not over.He still has to live under house aresst extra.Wich is not nice you basically stay locked up in your home and cant go anywhere so it like jail but .Just better food and a garden .i agree look at those rapists that get off eailer.Go back into society and commit the same crimes again.Hurting woeman and children ..There should be longer sentences for them.......its got nothing to do with money or race.....Pepole are quick to talk about race and money.But thats simply not the case here.Now leave this man alone and move on ...He is still serving his time.Go complainn about the rapists.....
Who was he talking to? Reva was already awake & asked him if he was having trouble sleeping while getting the fan to try cool d room down & closing curtains while doing this he heard noise coming frm the bathroom!!! Now Question is when did Reva get to the bathroom?? Who was he talking to???
No justice in South Africa. My brother inlaw and his tandem partner were killed by a 19 year old taxi driver with no licence that came with a high speed through a red light. He did not even looked at them, kicked out the front window where he hit them. Took off the number plates and drove off. After four years, court cases and thousands of Rands spent on advocates and private investigators, he is still a free man.???? Now my question is why no who haa about their unexpected deaths and the what about the 3000 SA farmer murdered. Oscar did his time and must now be left to live his life now. Reeva will never come back and no one knows what she did. Oscar you will always be our golden boy. ❤❤
Calling this man, who is either a murderer or so self centered and filled with fear that he could accidentally kill his girlfriend, a "golden boy" is nauseating. Oscar, at best, is a disgusting, weak narcissist.
This whole parole non-sense should be scrapped, because it set's the wrong message that crime pays. If you get 15 years for murder - you serve 15 years and not a day less.
I guess it was an accident but how anyone can screw up that badly is beyond me. Too many unanswered questions on both sides. The state prosecutor Gerrie Nel must be SA's pride and joy!
They were arguing, he got violent, she ran away from him hiding in the bathroom and he shot her.
That’s Not what both the courts said which is why he wasn’t convicted and sentenced for premeditated murder. Another one who is speculating without offering any actual FACTS !!!!
So, Sherlock, why didn't he put his protheses on? Doesn't make sense if you want to intimidate so. This is one of PLENTY aspects, that supports his version. You're just one of many who likes to judge and condemn.

His story doesn't make sense to me. If I hear something in my house, the first thing I would think is that one of my relatives, kids, wife, is inside a bathroom, not a burglar.
Put yourself in his position. You have no legs. You wake up suddenly from a noise in your house. You are still half asleep. You are at your most vulnerable. I agree he should have probably shot a warning shot first but when you are in that position you are not thinking straight. The first judge was correct, it was manslaughter not murder but they made an example of him. He served more than half his sentence and should have been released a long time ago. Also Miss Reeva Steenkamp was not as innocent as everyone thinks. She only dated him because of his fame. Who says they were even sleeping in the same bed since they did have a fight that evening. Only he knows what really happened and I believe him, not the story the police came up with.
@@neilaucamp2389REEVA WAS NOT AS INNOCENT AS EVERYONE THINKS YOU SAY !, WHAT THE FCUK HAS THAT GOT TO DO WITH IT ? LISTEN !, IF YOU HEAR A NOISE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT !, NOBODY IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD JUST PICK UP A GUN AND SHOOT IT THROUGH A DOOR AND NOT KNOWING WHO IT WAS !, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOUR MISSUS IS IN THE SAME BED AS YOU AND THE ODDS ARE THAT IT'S HER IN THAT BATHROOM ? AND ANYBODY IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD CHECK IN THE BED IF YOUR MISSUS WAS THERE !, NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THIS AND TRY TO DEFEND OSCAR PISTORIOS HE SHOULD HAVE CHECKED IF REEVA WAS IN BED BEFORE HE SHOT !, HE'S VERY LUCKY THAT HE'S GOT A CHANCE TO LIVE HIS LUFE AGAIN !, THAT POOR GIRL CAN'T 🙏🏴
EXACTLY !He said he spoke to Reeva when he went to get the fan off the balcony and REEVA ASKED if he couldn't sleep ! He then HEARS a noise and GRABS his gun and goes to the bathroom ! Empties his gun and shouts for REEVA to phone the police !, HE THEN SAYS in his statement he tries to break down the door and REALISES it could be REEVA IN the bathroom ? HOW the fcuk can this be ? HE already said REEVA asked him if he couldn't sleep when he was bringing in the fan off the balcony so when he went with his gun to the bathroom he knew it couldn't have been REEVA coz he just spoke to her when she was in bed and he was bringing the fan in ? SO HOW CAN HE THEN SAY he realised it could have been REEVA IN the bathroom ! Nah ! He MURDER that poor girl!, luv and Respect from London 🏴 my friend 👍👊🙏🏴
Let it go. It's history.
@DonnellOkafor-pw7zc Oscar stayed in an affluent gated community domkop.
Oscar will face his final justice when he leaves this earth one day. Justice was not served here.
You are forgetting if God can forgive so can we. Just believe that God forgive
That’s if he doesn’t meet me first.
If Oscar has repented God will welcome him into heaven...God is GOOD!
@@claudiacorvi2286 ?
the bathroom door was locked because she was hiding from him
Absolutely, that fact is absolutely telling. Poor girl. Terrified. I can't imagine.
I wonder if the cricket bat had Reeva's blood on it before the shooting.
I feel so sorry for the poor girl.
exactly...guilty
R.I.P. Ms. Reeva Steenkamp. You are now with the true Angels where you belong, ❤ X 🙏 ...
U sure she went to heaven
For fox sakes, did you knew her
Everyone goes to Heaven apparently.
10 years after killing a 29 year woman? Ashame and concerning
the first place the burglar goes to is the tiolet!!! I dont think so.
My thoughts. What’s in the toilet for a bulgar
Hawu, guys he quickly needed to pee before his fight or flight response kicked in. But yeah, I aint never heard of a burglar needing to pee first.
If you knew the layout of the bathroom and house, perhaps you would understand that selecting that window to enter would have made perfect sense, actually.
I think Oscar’s story was that he heard the bathroom window squeak open and believed a burglar had entered through the window. I have to wonder if it was possible that Reeva opened the window in an effort to get out. What a tragic story.
If you don’t know enough about the case to make judgment then why even comment???
My question is, if she was simply using the bathroom and not hiding from him, why was the bathroom door locked? That one lady said it perfectly. Reeva will never die. Her story will echo as a voice for change forever.
I agree. The locked door does not make sense to me. I don't know anyone that locks a toilet door when home alone with their partner. If not for the locked door, I might have believed his story.
You opinionated people clearly have never lived in South Africa. Locking doors is taught to toddlers like washing hands. An uneducated comment. Why are you even commenting?
Absolutely agree that it's an advantage and not a all fair on the other athletes.
The comment I was looking for.
HANG ON ? SO YOU SAID THAT HE WENT ON THE BALCONY TO BRING IN THE FAN AND REEVA ASKED HIM IF HE COULDN'T SLEEP !, HE THEN HEARS A NOISE AND GRABS HIS GUN AND GOES TO THE BATHROOM ! HE SHOUTS GET OUT OF MY HOUSE !, SHOOTS AND SHOUTS REEVA FONE THE POLICE !, HE THEN TRIES TO GET IN THE BATHROOM ! HIS STATEMENT THEN SAYS HE THEN REALISES IT COULD BE REEVA ? HOW CAN THAT BE ? HE KNOWS HE HAS JUST SPOKEN TO HER WHEN HE WENT ON THE BALCONY TO GET THE FAN AND SHE ASKED HIM IF HE COULDN'T SLEEP SO HE KNEW THAT IT WASNT REEVA IN THE BATHROOM !, SO HOW CAN HE THEN SAY LATER THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN REEVA ? IMPOSSIBLE ? HE MURDERED REEVA IN A FIT OF RAGE ? IMO ? THEY ARGUED AN FOUGHT AND HE PULLED OUT HIS GUN ? SHE RAN SCARED AND WENT TO THE BATHROOM AND LOCKED HERSELF IN THERE SO HE COULDN'T GET AT HER ! HE CAME TO THE BATHROOM RAGING AND TOLD HER TO OPEN THE DOOR AND WHEN SHE DIDN'T HE JUST EMPTIED THE GUN THROUGH THAT DOOR IN A RAGE !, HOW MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD LOCK THERE BATHROOM DOOR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN THERES ONLY YOU AND YOUR PARTNER IN THE HOUSE ? NAH ! SHE LOCKED IT FOR A REASON AND THAT WAS TO PROTECT HERSELF FROM HIM !, I WISH I WAS IN THAT COURTROOM COZ I CAN PICK HIS STATEMENT APART AND IM NO LAWYER !, HE MURDERED REEVA GUYS SO DON'T EVER FEEL SORRY FOR THIS COLD BLOODED MURDERER !, RESPECT AND LUV TO YOU ALL FROM LONDON 🏴🙏👊🏴
@paulbowman1762…When he was moving the fans she got out of bed and went into the bathroom to use the toilet. She opened the window in the bathroom and it made a very loud noise and scared him. The room was totally blacked out and he didn’t see or hear her get up. So obviously he thought she was still in bed and the noise was an intruder l. I mean, this is all just common sense. Accidental shootings do happen. All the time actually. I don’t know why people refuse to believe his story. He was found innocent of murdeing Reeva. At that point in time, he had received multiple death threats so, I wouldn’t call it paranoia. I would call it legitimate fear. Btw….South Africa is not the safest place in the world. In fact, it’s actually a pretty violent place. And also….I lock my bathroom door at 3 am. Why ?? Because I was a victim of a violent home invasion 25 years ago. And 4 months ago I found a prowler in my back yard (different house). It brought back all that fear from 25 years ago. So yeah, I lock my bathroom door at 3 am and I don’t care what you or anyone else thinks or says about that. You’re judging Oscar’s choices based on your own life experience. Some people have different, and sometimes very traumatic, life experiences. Try to think outside the box. You aren’t a lawyer and thank God for that because you wouldn’t be a very good one. You lack life experience, common sense, and critical thinking skills. Also…..why all the capitalizations ??? Are you that desperate for attention ? 🤔
His traumatic life experiences were relayed during the trial, yes. How traumatised he was as a child with a deep seated 'fear' of attack.
Yet, despite that he left the sliding door to the balcony open (what's the most important to address first, your life long fear or being hot), this after he had removed his prosthetics (put himself in a vulnerable state), with his girlfriend (who he wants to protect inclusive of himself) beside him and then went to sleep?
Knowing people had worked/were working at his house and that there were ladders outside?
Then after he had fired the shots through the toilet door, he's still too scared to turn the lights on?
Who doesn't turn the light on when it is 'pitch dark', you've fired shots and there is still no movement?
How will you see the intruder at a distance in order to take proper aim with zero light (it was pitch dark in the room as per his testimony).
When he told Reeva 'to phone the police' while he was retrieving his gun and she didn't respond at all - that didn't move him to make sure that she had heard him with simply 'Reeva'?
The only conclusion we can come to then is that he assumed - assumed she was in bed, assumed she had heard him, even though there was no response from her at his instruction, no sound of movement, no affirmation, nothing. His ears weren't ringing then, were they?
Surely his house was fitted with an alarm system, seeing how afraid he had always been since childhood, inclusive of being a celebrity of sorts and due to his vulnerability when without his prosthetics? An alarm system has a 'panic button' function in case of emergencies, usually linked to an armed-response security service. If so, why wasn't this utilised immediately upon hearing 'the noise'?
As for his parole, nothing can bring Reeva back, ever. Not even a thousand years in prison. He will have to live with 'his truth', whatever that truly is, for the rest of his life. People will never look at him the same as before all this happened, he will also have to live with that. Hard fact.
Whichever way you want to look at it this guy was an immature jerk who couldn't control himself.
@@ROYALROCKETRONINan accidental shooting would be 1 shot, not 4 at different angles, it would not include bat marks on the bath ir the door. He murdered her in a fit of rage. Dtop rallying for him hes not a nice person. I know, l met him years before. Very nasty person underneath the public facade
House arrest!? What a joke !
You can get away with accidental hit and run in this world. Just saying
Why would anyone think : Hey someone just broke into my fancy house with many expensive items but they are now in my bathroom - to steel what there?
Some of these comments are so infuriating. If you don’t know enough about the case, then why would you comment and pass judgment educate yourself first then make a comment. 🙄
And if you are black. No justice in SA. WHO KILLED WHISTLEBLOWERS? and got away with it. To many opions. A opinion is like a a----h----. Everybody has one.
@@me_607 that is often the easiest entry point to the entire house, don't act dumb.
@@anitastephenson7531what utter rubbish
I they lived and slept together, why would she have locked the door. She would most probably not even have closed the door. She locked herself in because they were fighting and Oscar tried to kick open the door but she wouldn't come out. That is when he decided to get his gun and shoot her. There is no other version that makes sense besides this one.
Very good point. Who claws and locks the bathroom door when you live with your significant other? She was hiding from him.
Was it ever discussed in this case why Reeva would LOCK the door to use the bathroom in her boyfriend's house???? Strange
!!! 😢
@@ithabeleng83yeah some very significant facts were overlooked. Even in senzo meyiwe trial...they dont like ti convict popular people like this oscar chatacter or kelly the killer
Such a sad story all the way around… for everyone involved..
I’m 26 close to her age, & never been in a relationship, cases give me relationship paranoia. The man was known, accomplished & disabled yet still had the gut to murder her in cold blood.
Why not mention that his intial 5 year sentence was increased by the Appeal Court to 15 years?
Yeah, seems more like 15 sec only,😶 added... Life without parole might have fit this case better...
He's a coward, imo..
RIP Reeva🌹
That young lady life was taken so badly but the boy served his punishment , we have seen worse in this country and her family has decided to just let the courts decide
That will not be mentioned because these illegal immigrants wanted to paint a picture that SAn criminal justice is weak because theywerre let off the hook for their drugs crime
I did not dispute anything. I merely stated that it's a normal reaction in this country to think the worst when something hors bump in the night.
1 in every 10 people Do not have or is likely to have a gun in SA. Get your facts straight. That's why South Africans should tell our own stories. Stop sensationalising everything. We ,as a Nation are saddened by this event and pray for Justice to prevail. RIP Reeva ❤
Someone climbed in a bathroom window two stories high with guard dogs...no way
This is so sad, he did his time. This story must be put to rest. So that he family can move on . Instead opening up new wounds
I remember when this first broke. Radio to say something dreadful has happened in the world of sport to Oscar Pistorius, all we know is Pistorius believed an intruder had entered and Pistorius has shot and killed his girlfriend mistaking her for the intruder. A very sad state of affairs and more as we get it …!
This country's legal system STINKS...a woman in our town drowned her 2 kids...she was in prison for 6 years
Eugh! Yeah you're right. I've been through this nightmare of a system myself. It's corrupt right through, for the right people. Power, money, staus and influence
After three months, perhaps they were deeply in lust; how can you know you love someone after so short a time? I don’t think it’s possible.
I met my wife in a coffee shop early one morning, I asked her out the same day - By the end of the date I was head over hills in love with her, we have been happily married for 4 years... Its very possible to fall in love and know its love after 1 date. I'm 100% sure I'm not the only one that knows this. Nothing to do with Oscar - Just wanted to enlighten @janeceeastwood8035
After being together for 2 months, I married my husband. We have now been happily married for 30 years! I can absolutely believe that one can be so deeply in love if you meet your person. ❤
@@joprinsloo7325 That’s very interesting. Congratulations. I’m glad for you.
What does that have to do with anything?
He's a narcissistic, paranoid mess. Arrogant and entitled. This beautiful lady lost her life for one reason. She did not do what she was instructed to do. Before you go to sleep, bring in the fans and lock the doors. When he woke up and saw that she was asleep and those doors were still open, he lost it. Because he rightly or wrongly see's intruders around every corner. And it triggered him. She must have been terrified. And fled to the bathroom for protection. I don't think he meant to kill her. He clearly believes that he is better than anyone else. And no one has ever held him accountable for the BS he has done over the years.
ironically...it was his narcissistic arrogance that fueled his athletic career. It also propelled him to violence and to shoot his girlfriend. I didn't like him before the murder, but I was sorry to be proven right by the death of a human .
Really bad man 😢
Very BAD😊
He killed her alright. They were fighting or breaking up. She wanted to leave him.
An intruder broke in to use the bathroom? You heard an intruder and your first instinct was to grab your gun and head TOWARDS the intruder, even though you were “terrified”? You heard an intruder and your first instinct wasn’t to move towards your girlfriend to protect her?
Ever heard of FIGHT or flight response? It's not flight for everyone. If you cannot flee, you HAVE TO fight, meaning to go towards the danger. Have you seen him without protheses? I could make him fall with one push.
@@user-bj2lu9qt3o Exactly, doesn't make sense that a man without legs would go to fight !
He wouldn't move towards his girlfriend, because she was already in the bathroom hiding. Our first instinct when we sense an intruder may be in our house
first we want to know about our loved ones.
Yes. That's the crap we're fed when they have 'political' reasons to get someone off - or released. Absolutely DISGUSTING.
His house is situated inside a high security estate. The chances of break ins is very small. It does happen, of course, but is is not a house in a normal suburb. The courts ruled 13 years. He served majority of his time. If I was perfect, I would judge, but I am not. He forever has to live with the knowledge that he killed someone.
So when he whispered to Reeva call the police where was she ? If he claims he didn’t know where she was then who was he whispering to ‘to call the police’ his contradicting himself ! Man he killed the girlfriend & that’s Africa for u 💯
He thought she was clearly still in bed.
I AM GLAD U ARE FREE OSCAR.❤❤.....START OVER ...U CAN DO IT❤
There is no logical reason to believe he's innocent.
Who locks the toilet door in the middle of the night anyway fs
A woman who is trying to evade potential or further violence.
A woman that just want to get away and is scared !
Nowhere has it been mentioned that Oscar's horrific boating accident that caused him life threatening brain trauma which produced dramatic personality changes that his friends and family brought to light in interviews, may have played into what happened.
The same type of damage experienced by football defense linemen who have experienced repeated concussive brain injury after years of being tackled. From lack of impulse control , judgement, paranoia and violence, these victims become capable of anything from suicide to homicide and dementia.
Oscar may have continued to be the good-natured, altruistic, compassionate, generous person he was before the accident. Nothing in his upbringing suggests he was a born psychopath. He knew he was loved and he gave as good as he got. He would have retired to have a family of his own maybe after a career that would have included Olympic gold. It is a tragedy for all concerned!
Understanding his situation is fine, but allowing the risk of another innocent person to test, if he is now able to control his uncontrollable urges is not fine.
I still don't understand why this guy was released 😢 but this is South Africa alive with possibilities 😮
He has served his time people, give it a rest, where is the moral uproar for the thousands of woman and children murdered in the years since his sentence? Where most sentences are less where are you all holding the government accountable? Where was the uproar after the court let Dewani go? Where were you all then? At least he served his sentence, what about those who never do??
It's easy to say when it's not your sister they killed
You are wrong. He has not served his full sentence.
This killer should have gotten life imprisonment.
So pleased you can agree with me. There are so many that just walk free. But he served time and I am pleased he is out and people should learn to forgive like we were forgiven
I am so happy that someone else feels the same. And nobody out there really knows what happened. So leave Oscar alone. Let him rest and carry on with his life.
@@MarethaDeJager
Only one person made it out of his house alive on that fateful night and it wasn't Reeva.
So, what do you think happened? Oscar is a killer and got a way too lenient sentence.
Murder should carry the death penalty or at least life without parole.
I am disgusted as to how little time he served for taking a life.
Imagine if Reeva survived that night
She would've lived to tell the truth and his arse is grass.
He wouldn't let it happen
The question is this; if his original conviction was murder , would he have received a sentence of only 15years ? If the answer is yes, then he is not the problem, the SA justice system is.
RIP. Reeva.
I truly cannot understand how anyone can think that the State's version of what transpired the night Oscar killed Reeva makes more sense than Oscar's version. Even taking into account that he may not or probably wasn't 100% truthful, his version is still more plausible and believable than the State's. The trial was a travesty and the subsequent legal abuse he was subjected to is disgustingly shameful.
Io
Absolutely Well Said and there are many people who agree totally with you . Nel was a horrible man who couldn’t accept the CH verdict and was determined to take Oscar to the court of appeal where he was greeted by heavily biased judges who let their emotions get in the way of common sense and sided with Nel. Really shocking behaviour !!!!!
If you believe Oscar's story, you'd believe anything. His story just makes no sense. My heart bleeds for Reeva and her poor, broken parents.
I believe his story. Why doesn’t it make sense?
Gerrie nel rule great advocate. He took them apart.
Judge is not capable for this case. Wow take her out if that position.
As with any murder case, we only have one side of the story.
The one thing that has always bothered me and maybe some ladies can give their opinion, if they were 3 months in a relationship, they knew each other and it was valentines.....Is it not rare for a girl to go to the bathroom in the dark and lock the door? Normally because of the relationship being so new, you go to the loo but dont lock the door, close it maybe...if it was me, the door would have been open, its a big house, its dark, I would want the door open especially because Oscar was not in the bathroom with her so privacy was not an issue......it is the one thing that makes me not believe his story....why was the door locked? UNLESS she did go to the loo with the door open, she may have wanted some air so opened the window, she then hears Oscar's call to her that someone is in the house, not wanting to bring attention to herself she closes the door and locks it then, Oscar hears this and thinks that criminals have come in through the window and into the toilet. It's enough to create reasonable doubt.....
He said in court he whispered to her to call police....
Agree
I always lock the bathroom door, it's a habit, I live on my own as well🤔
Oscar Pisstorius married John C. Mongrel in a Civil Ceremony at Kgosi Mampuru Prison on Saturday. The Band Dirty Skirts played for the guests and there was a bouquet throwing and orderves. We wish the couple many happy years ahead.
this dude is so screwed
There is a movie about a woman who got away with murder ,based on a book THE TWO MRS GRENVILLES-it is based on a true story.She also claimed an intruder was in her house.It´s quite interesting.
This guy story is full of shit. Especially the mention that he was talking to Reeva as he walked toward bathroom. If he talked to her or asked to call police did she not respond?also just blasting away with firearm without being certain someone was in locked bathroom does not make sense. If intruder did lock themselves in bathroom and you are in good position with a firearm you have upper hand. Where is intruder going to go? You get cover and call police while firearm is pointed and trained on bathroom door. If there is movement from bathroom door with no response after yelling a few commands than i can see firing weapon.
He actually admitted shooting to kill !
Exactly!! Who was he talking to?
Up North in South Africa ,, life is so different. You always have to expect to be robbed or loose your car . They like your car , they fetch it . Down South ,, completely opposite . Lovely and peaceful and everybody knows everybody...xx
The clip right at the beginning when the press were photographing him in court and he was wiping no tears tells me everything I need to know 🤔🤨❤
He not only cried a lot during the trial, he was also physically sick in the courtroom more than once. You cannot fake that.
@@4TSe7eN and if you believe that you'll believe anything
Personally, having watched and listened to many other documentaries about murderers before, during & after trial, I've never once heard of one who cried incessantly, swore they were innocent of murder, or thrown up in court over their actions. Tho I accept that speaks to remorse but not necessarily innocence nonetheless I can't help feeling he may have acted on impulse & be more guilty of manslaughter than murder - the latter obviously implies intent which really wasn't fully determined in court IMHO!
Actually it was... he admitted to shooting to kill. That in my eyes is murder. Furthermore he had other incedences where he just radomly fired a gun, scaring the sh** out of people. He is either not sane, or he thinks he can get away with anything
He should have been given Life Imprisonment
My comment on this video
I live in South Africa and he intentionally murdered her. He was an extremely controlling person. My Daughters Boyfriend waa at school with him said he wasn't a good person. He has assaulted 2 other Women he was dating. Reeva was seeing her ex Boyfriend who she had previously dated Springbok rugby player Francois Hougaard and I believe Oscar found out about it. I believe when he started getting aggressive with her she ran into the bathroom and locked the door. He became enraged and opened fire on her she was sitting on the toilet seat. He should have been sentenced to life.
@@yvettedurbangirlsa For some one to be sentenced to life you need to prove it was a premeditated act which the prosecution failed to do even though they tried hard but failed . Also, other people who knew Oscar very well have all said he was and is a very nice and caring person which contradicts what you’re saying about him. She wasn’t seeing a former boyfriend either. Oscar’s version was accepted by both the courts which is why he wasnt given a life sentence . You don’t know what went on in the early hours of that morning and all you’re doing is making assumptions based on your biased and not factual opinion !!!!!
That wasn't 'remorse' - it was gutless ACTING to get himself off.

I’ve spent 6 days in hospital taking wrong meds. It can cause death or coma. His legs could’ve been caused by this disease

It's unusual to LOCK (not close) an en-suite bathroom door when one wakes up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. Especially because it was just the two of them in the house. Why did she do that? His version does not add up.
She never said that its people made her drink alcohol, she acknowledged that the situation led her to drink alcohol.

Why is everyone commenting on this that can happen to anyone anytime. Leave the story its their story and not yours, you have nothing to do with these people, reasons or outcomes of the situations. They are people like you and me we all do make mistakes or do you want to throw the first stone?
So in other words mind your own business
If heard a noise wouldn’t you turn to the person lying next to & say something. Instead he didn’t even look he just raced & did what he did. Why shoot behind a close door esp if it was close. I think it was her hiding after an argument & locked herself in the toilet. Why did neighbours hear a woman screaming.
The fact she locked the bathroom door. Remember he only screamed out after hearing the noise in the bathroom so it wasn't because she thought there was an intruder she was running and locking herself away from HIM.
The fact that he told security everything was fine there while he was trying to put a story together. So guilty. So SO guilty!!!!!!!!!!!

The death of Reeva Steenkamp is devastating and heartbreaking. My Goodness!
My heart goes out with her family. My Lord, what next ? the world is full of dangerous people!
*Why did he do that? *
Beautiful lady, nothing will replace your life. Your death shocked the world.May the good Lord bless your soul.RIP Reeva.Psalm 48:14 🙏
8:41 why’s she locking the bathroom door ?
Maybe she was scared of him or it was just a habbit ???? It was in the middle of the night.... she could have been scared or just not very awake.
Because she heard him scream at intruders, stupid.
@@moonwitch1 ok answer me truthfully now ok. Have you got up for a wee in the dead of night ? Did you lock the bathroom door?
I think she was scared of him and hiding and he lost his shit.
Maybe when he yelled “Reeva, call the police”, she got scared and locked the door. But not too sure about that one.
@Hellstothenaw Yes, maybe. Mad situation wasn't it that one. I remember when it happened , the news said he shot at an intruder and his gf is dead, and oh, what a tragedy, poor Oscar, etc.
We will never know the exact truth as Oscar fought for his life in court, didn't he.
He was not a steady character. I think he got mad at her for something, and she ran to the bathroom and locked it, and he shot her, not really thinking it would hit her or kill her. Did she have a cellphone in the bathroom with her? Icr. If so, the last calls or messages would be something to look at.
Money talks my pipo.The rich and famous
Tragic tragic mistake 😪 and Oscar has paid the price! I am so happy he is finally free, he should have never been imprisoned, the deed is punishment enough. Ì pray he goes on to live a productive and meaningful life❤
He should have been sentenced to life without the possibility of parole!!! Despicable individual!!!!
This was a terrible injustice. I know as sure as anything precious in life that this man suffered both the loss of his girlfriend, as well as the suffering he endured because people had a mob mentality and would have thrown stones if they could have.
He also wanted to punish himself because he couldn't forgive himself for that terrible mistake through a misunderstanding of the circumstance.
He felt that he needed to punish himself, and stood as condemned.
He deserves to go forward,
to live a great life for both himself and Reeva.
She wants him to , because it will give her peace. I know she understands.
I think he has sevrved enough time.Just remember His sentence is not over.He still has to live under house aresst extra.Wich is not nice you basically stay locked up in your home and cant go anywhere so it like jail but .Just better food and a garden .i agree look at those rapists that get off eailer.Go back into society and commit the same crimes again.Hurting woeman and children ..There should be longer sentences for them.......its got nothing to do with money or race.....Pepole are quick to talk about race and money.But thats simply not the case here.Now leave this man alone and move on ...He is still serving his time.Go complainn about the rapists.....
Lots criminals in South Africa and murders as well rapists walking free leave Oscar please and concentrate on the criminal justice in south Africa..
Where you get your stats from
I remember Donald Trump saying "He's as guilty as OJ". Whatever that meant, we all know.
And there are many in America that believe Donald Trump is guilty and should be sentenced to prison
So he spent a few years in prison the fact is he got away with murder and is now allowed to live his life.
Its not just her child who dies in SA many do!!
I have had e few stay in girlfriends none of them would lock the door wen in the bathroom
Who was he talking to? Reva was already awake & asked him if he was having trouble sleeping while getting the fan to try cool d room down & closing curtains while doing this he heard noise coming frm the bathroom!!! Now Question is when did Reva get to the bathroom?? Who was he talking to???
No justice in South Africa. My brother inlaw and his tandem partner were killed by a 19 year old taxi driver with no licence that came with a high speed through a red light. He did not even looked at them, kicked out the front window where he hit them. Took off the number plates and drove off. After four years, court cases and thousands of Rands spent on advocates and private investigators, he is still a free man.???? Now my question is why no who haa about their unexpected deaths and the what about the 3000 SA farmer murdered. Oscar did his time and must now be left to live his life now. Reeva will never come back and no one knows what she did. Oscar you will always be our golden boy. ❤❤
Calling this man, who is either a murderer or so self centered and filled with fear that he could accidentally kill his girlfriend, a "golden boy" is nauseating. Oscar, at best, is a disgusting, weak narcissist.
This whole parole non-sense should be scrapped, because it set's the wrong message that crime pays.
If you get 15 years for murder - you serve 15 years and not a day less.
Be as it all may be.....he paid his due in jail and the rest of his life will be difficult so LET HIM BE. Gossiping or assuming is not for us to do.
His tears are commonly known as crocodile 🐊 tears
I guess it was an accident but how anyone can screw up that badly is beyond me. Too many unanswered questions on both sides.
The state prosecutor Gerrie Nel must be SA's pride and joy!
