Father of Pistorius’s girlfriend speaks out

Personally, I’m not buying the story that Pistorius accidentally shot his girlfriend. As the story goes, he was outside the bedroom on the balcony, walked inside (past the bed) heard a noise in the bathroom and shot through the door four times; never noticing that his girlfriend wasn’t in bed. Sorry, but this is all bunk. Why didn’t he call out for her? Why would a criminal who’s intending to rob or cause harm break into a home then lock himself in the bathroom?

Unfortunately, this has the makings of another O.J. Simpson trial, where the murderer gets away with it… TGO

Pistorius

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — The father of Oscar Pistorius’ slain girlfriend has told a South African newspaper that the athlete will have to “live with his conscience” if he is lying about how he killed her.

In its Saturday edition, the Afrikaans-language Beeld newspaper quotes Barry Steenkamp as saying Pistorius will “suffer” alone if his assertion that he accidentally shot 29-year-old Reeva Steenkamp is false.

Barry Steenkamp says he might be able to forgive Pistorius one day if the double-amputee Olympian is telling the truth.

Pistorius was released on bail on Friday. He is charged with premeditated murder in the Valentine’s Day slaying of his girlfriend.
