Oscar Pistorius

Anyone watching this on a daily basis? Quite a fascinating case.

I'm watching it live when it's on as it's only one hour ahead of us.

The prosecutor, as he would, is GRILLING Pistorius, even showing a picture of his girlfriend's head wound to the court which Oscar refused to look at.
A round up is here.

I don't know what to think. If he was pissed off with Reeva, surely that's no motive for killing her considering he has no previous convictions of 'wife beating'? Every man and his dog carries a gun in South Africa, but why did he not look in the bed first?

A nice round up here too.

The prosecutor lost the case with the watermelon analogy. He'll walk

5 years. By the looks of it, he's out in 10 months and on house arrest. It's been a great case to have followed. Really interesting.
