red vtec Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Wonder if Lord Coe will bleate on about the Olympic legacy with this? Maybe Pistorius was emulating the east end, gun crime Got to admit he struck me as a moody sod at the olympics, not that I thought he was a killer. But I never get into building sportsstars up as Gods, Yep they may get up early and put the effort in, but so do plenty of other normal people. Just look at the list of Cheats: Armstrong, Johnson, Christie etc etc, nearly everyone who rides a bike in a certain French race! there are loads more. and then you have the ones who mess it all up , G. Best, Gascoyne etc etc..

USAndretti42 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thought she was an intruder so he shot 4 times? Seems a bit excessive to me. Latest reports say she was shot through a bathroom door but didn't say whether she was inside or outside the bathroom. Also it was reported that police took away a bloodstained baseball bat, the role of which is yet to be defined.

richardvg Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 HERE IS THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER A bloodied cricket bat is the central piece of evidence in the unfolding murder investigation into ReevaSteenkamp’s death. City Press can reveal that police are investigating different scenarios involving the bat – one of which is that her boyfriend, Olympic hero Oscar Pistorius, used it to viciously assault her. Adriaan Basson | CITY PRESS The police are also investigating two more possibilities: that Steenkamp may have used the bat in self-defence, or that Pistorius used it to break down the toilet door behind which Steenkamp was hiding from him. We can further reveal that police specifically requested that Pistorius’ blood be tested for drugs and steroids. Steenkamp’s skull was “crushed” and police tests on the cricket bat and her body will reveal if the injuries were caused by blows to the back of her head. “There was lots of blood on the bat. Forensic tests will show whose blood it was,” said a source with inside knowledge of the case. City Press spoke to three sources close to the high-profile investigation, which has gripped the world’s imagination. They all ruled out the possibility that Pistorius could have mistaken Steenkamp for an intruder. The police found no evidence of forced entry. Pistorius is being held at the Brooklyn Police Station in Pretoria and will apply for bail on Tuesday. He has denied murdering Steenkamp. On the same day, a memorial service will be held for the 29-year-old Steenkamp in Port Elizabeth. The sources agreed that the state had a “rock-solid” case against the popular athlete. Said a criminal lawyer with 30 years’ experience: “He could possibly get a 20-year sentence instead of life if he pleads guilty.” If a court finds him guilty and sentences him to life imprisonment, he will only be able to apply for parole after 25 years, when he will be 51. Based on in-depth interviews with our sources, City Press has pieced together Thursday morning’s fateful events that claimed the life of Steenkamp, a popular model and reality star who had been dating Pistorius since November last year. Pistorius’ father received a call from his son just after 3.20am on Thursday, asking him to come to his house. When his family arrived, Oscar was carrying Steenkamp’s body down the stairs from his bedroom to the entrance hall. Her head and arms were “dangling”. He allegedly told his sister, Aimee, that something terrible had happened and that he had mistaken Steenkamp for a burglar. The police questioned Aimee and took a sworn statement from her. Steenkamp was still breathing and Pistorius tried to resuscitate her in the foyer. Paramedics and police arrived on the scene and, minutes later, she was declared dead. Steenkamp was wearing her nightie at the time. When the police inspected Oscar’s bedroom, they found her overnight bag and iPad on the floor. A holster for a 9mm pistol was found on Oscar’s side of the bed. The bedclothes were crumpled. “It was clear that both of them had slept in the bed,” said a police source. One cartridge was found in the bedroom and the police suspect Oscar may have “chased” her and fired the first shot before Steenkamp could lock herself inside the toilet. “The suspicion is that the first shot, in the bedroom, hit her in the hip. She then ran and locked herself in the toilet. She was doubled over because of the pain. He fired three more shots. She probably covered her head, which is why the bullet also went through her hand,” said a source. Steenkamp was shot in the head, hip, arm and hand. In anticipation of a possible argument that he experienced “roid rage” – extremely aggressive behaviour associated with taking large doses of steroids – the police insisted that the athlete’s blood be tested for any foreign substances. On Friday, Oscar’s family and management released a statement in which they disputed the murder “in the strongest terms”. “These are now live and active legal proceedings which must be allowed to take their course through the process of proper investigation by the police, evidence-gathering and through the local South African judicial system,” the statement read. Oscar described Steenkamp’s death as a “terrible, terrible tragedy”. - Adriaan Basson and Jacques Steenkamp LATEST NEWS MOST READ SME FACEBOOK FANS A bloodied cricket bat: The case against Oscar Pistorius African Bank CEO takes on the watchdogs Construction: Firms hit by cartel scam may sue for billions Drive for enterprise Shark skin to help cut aviation fuel Women Bring Their Own Style to the Startup World back to top Read more about by www.smesouthafrica.co.za Quote Technically sound ...Theoretically poked !

Vulcan Grey Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Good advice! The Onion's Tips For Not Accidentally Murdering Your Girlfriend http://www.theonion.com/articles/the-onions-tips-for-not-accidentally-murdering-you,31359/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=standard-post:headline:default In today’s fast-paced world, it seems like just about any guy can accidentally kill his girlfriend at virtually any time. Here are some easy strategies to avoid inadvertently murdering your significant other: Be sure to avoid firing a gun in the general direction of your girlfriend, regardless of the situation. Shy away from doing anything that may cause your girlfriend a massive amount of blood loss, such as beating her, stabbing her, or shooting her multiple times. Consider performing a task that has a low risk of accidentally murdering your girlfriend, like giving her flowers, taking her to dinner, or letting her continue living and breathing. Remain generally cognizant of the fact that three gunshots to the head and torso will, in most situations, fatally wound a person, and that this fact will, therefore, likely apply to your girlfriend as well. If there is a locked door in your home and there is even a remote possibility that the person you’re currently dating is behind that door and could be immediately killed by the bullets you fire at the door, try not to fire a gun directly at that door. In general, if there is something that you think might cause your girlfriend to stop living, don’t do that thing.

USAndretti42 Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 So it get curiouser and curiouser. The lead detective has been taken off the case because he is up on an attempted murder charge of his own but he also admitted that it wasn't steroids in Pistorius' bedroom but may have been testosterone but he hadn't read the label properly. it could have been a herbal remedy. The witness who said they heard Pistorius and his girlfriend arguing lived 600m or 300m away. The witness also heard two sets of 3 shots but police found only 4 cartidges. This is going to run and run, ironically.
