    Pistorius trial

    This is going to be interesting. Awful what happened to that lovely girl, but the trial is intriguing to say the least.

    Starts from Monday

    First of all his whinging,whining voice is doing my head in (south African accents are terrible)

    The self pity and pathetic put on crying is so false.
    He is blowing it

    Alas, poor Oscar Pistorious
    Is fast becoming notorious,
    Despite a career once bathed in glory,
    Who ... ... will now believe his story?
    As, at length, events unfold
    Resulting from the lies he's told,
    How can he expect to win?
    When many think he's guilty as sin
    !

    From what I heard on the news today,the defense had a very successful sum up..

    Dont be that surprised if he gets off!

    Worth a bet if the odds are there IMO.

    Looks like the judge is working her way to an acquittal on the Murder charge IMO..
    She`s discounted the witnesses testimony already..

    She`s discounted Oscar's evidence as well.

    He's guilty of all the firearm charges and they add up to 30 years. He'll be found guilty of the lower murder charge, or manslaughter.

    When you fire a gun a number of times thru a shut door and you kill someone, how can that not be murder? What did he think would happen to someone on the other side of the door?

    How can it be self defence, how was he threatened?

    It all depends what you think is on the other side of the door.
    No evidence to prove premeditated murder..
    I suppose you think Tony Martin was a murderer too then?

    as far as i know she could have found him guilty of murder not just premeditated murder.

    tony martin shot a burglar, pistorius killed his girlfriend

    how many people on here, if they heard a noise would get their gun, go and see what the noise was and then fire 4 shots thru a door without knowing who was on the other side were did he think his g/f was ????

    Ex-girlfriend on how Oscar Pistorius terrorised her: I hid gun because I feared he'd kill me
    Samantha Taylor was left with bruises and scars after the Blade Runner bit and pinched her - she was also tortured mentally during the 18-month relationship

    Looks like he will just get a fine or community service.
