Pistorious charged with murder....

[Hawkeye's-911T]

Now that it seems the bugger got off with what amounts to a slap on the (fill in body part here)________.

So with that in mind - knowing I may get $chitt-bombed, banned or both - here goes anyway.........

Oscar wanted to get a new bathroom door but his girlfriend was dead against it.

Oscar clearly misunderstood when his girlfriend told him that on Valentine's Day he had to take her out.

If he gets off this charge it will be the closest shave anyone has had with only 2 blades.

His lawyer's got a hard job ahead of him. Realistically, it looks like Pistorius hasn't got a leg to stand on.

Oscar Pistorius is pleading not guilty due to temporary diminished responsibility. He claims he was legless at the time of the incident.

Whatever happens in court, he still has a career. The IOC say he's a front runner at the next Olympics for pistol shooting.

Police reconstruction indicates that Pistorius lost it when, for his Valentine's Day gift, his girlfriend gave him a pair of socks.

New Valentine's Day card: "Roses are red, violets are glorious. Never creep up on Oscar Pistorius."

Looks like he has an expensive lawyer. I hope he can foot the bill.

New evidence has been found outside the Pistorius home that completely acquits him of his girlfriend's murder . footprints !

She didn't notice Oscar stalking her.. It was the silence of the limbs.

And finally, Anyone making jokes about Oscar Pistorius is just prosthetic!

Sorry for effin-up your thread Joe Bob, I couldn't help myself
Cheers

Maybe if they were a little tougher on murderers they might have less of them.

Sadly this is what happens when you try to draft the most liberal constitution in the world for one of the least educated countries in the world, without consideration for how not having effective deterrents will cause crime to escalate as wildly as it has.

Double post.

Justice has been done:

The Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) on Thursday found that Oscar Pistorius was guilty of murdering Reeva Steenkamp.

Link to full article.

This conviction carries a minimum sentence of 15 years behind bars, of which at least 2/3rds must be served in jail before parole can be considered.

Maybe he will get the 10 months off that he already sat on the culpable homicide conviction.

WOW... That is a surprise.

Well done to the South African justice system.

I never understood why a murder in South Africa gets so much attention.

Looks like he is toast after all and this time the murder charge will likely stick:

Because she was a pretty blond and he was a celebrity. Much like the OJ Simpson trial. Just another double murder by a sociopath.
