BLADE RUNNERS REMORSE

Being a South African this blog will interest global members:

The Blade runner Oscar Pistorius who won gold in the Olympics thus making SA proud.
Today he stands for trial for shooting and killing his girlfriend
Reeva Steenkamp on Valentines night mistaking her for an intruder.

The blade runner maintains that her accident was a tragic mistake.
Several of his statements immediately after the alleged murder have been called to question during the case. Testimony from the ballistics experts suggest that Oscar would have heard the model screaming after the first few shots.

"I obviously cared for her". said Oscar to his lawyer Roux. He was asked to read some extracts from the 1 700 whatsapp messages sent between him and Reeva. He said he wished he could "tuck her in" at night and asks her not to go running in an area he considered unsafe.
They were looking at furniture together after he put in an offer for a house in Johannesburg to be closer to her.

Oscar has finally told the court what happened on that fateful night, he becomes so emotional he just cries, thus all the females in the case hearing cry with him sympathising with his grief..........but Reevas mother just looks at his crying face with out any expression.

Some of the extracts from his quotes at the dock:

"I needed to arm myself, that I needed to protect reevs and I needed my gun"

"I have terrible nightmares about things that happened that night. I smell blood and I wake up terrified"

Some of the quotes from South African citizens:

"No, its pretty convenient suddenly he develops a conscience and sheds tears. He just assumed that because of his disability and social stance, he would be given a milder sentence...he cried because he was scared."
"Whats the use of crying now, he the deed is done..you do the crime you do the time."
"Hell no, if it is an intruder, you still had the intention of killing a human being...and famous or not, you committed a crime"
"People must have some sympathy firstly life for Oscar must have been very difficult for him of his disability and I am sure reeva was doing stuff behind his back that drove him to do what he did.

Well that's the citizens verdict.

Shame don't we all cry after we are found out??
No amount of tears will bring Reeva back.. he committed a crime and I hope our judicial system shall prevail.

Whether it was intentional or not, he killed her. Depending on the case, minimum sentence for premeditated murder could be life sentence.

Well we all have our opinions at the end of the day only three people know the truth!!!!

ONE IS DEAD
ONE IS WATCHING OVER US ALL
AND ONE IS TELLING THE TRUTH OR NOT
