Is this one of the reasons that people shouldn't have guns, especially next to them in bed?

Houchens Head · Feb 14, 2013

Not released the full story yet but it doesn't look good for him eh?

ajsccfc · Feb 14, 2013

The general theory appears to be that his girlfriend tried to surprise him for Valentine's and he shot her after mistaking her for a burglar. Surely even with burglars you give yourself a second to identify them.

Otis · Feb 14, 2013

Yep. And you don't shoot them 4 times to make sure.

Maybe she brought him Black Magic and he prefers Milk Tray.

His story does seem a little odd. But hey, maybe it's the truth. Who knows.

ajsccfc · Feb 14, 2013

Turns out he used a starter pistol, so it's being treated as race related.

Looks better for him than it does for her too be fair!!!

skybluesam66 · Feb 14, 2013

to be honest, I dont think he's got a leg to stand on

Nick · Feb 14, 2013

It said it was between 4-5am. Who wakes somebody up for a valentines surprise then? What was the surprise?

ajsccfc · Feb 14, 2013

Roses are great, violets are glorious
Never sneak up on Oscar Pistorius

And how many leggy blonde burglars that look exactly like you wife do they get in South Africa??

Mr pot · Feb 14, 2013

If this goes to court he won't have a leg to stand on

ajsccfc · Feb 14, 2013

The police spokesman has said they were 'surprised' by the initial story of him mistaking her for a burglar, and it's a murder charge. There were reports of shouting from the address earlier in the evening and the police have investigated domestic incidents there before. Wow.

(note: there are no puns in the above)

scroobiustom · Feb 14, 2013

"He is a bit emotional, but is ok" thank god for that I was worried he was going to do something silly!

they have lots of burglars over there with long blonde and nice tits

Hugh Jarse · Feb 14, 2013

Oscar Pistorious is the Blade Gunner.

That's what happens when you shoot someone when you're legless!!

All jokes aside, things look very bleak for him. Police say they had received previous reports of a "Domestic" nature hours previously, neighbours coming forward to say that this isn't the first time they have heard stuff like this.

Think he's going down big time!!

Flying Fokker · Feb 14, 2013

Guilty.....

kg82 · Feb 14, 2013

It doesn't sound good for him at all. Another scenario is (assuming he's innocent of deliberately doing it) they heard sounds, thought it was an intruder, (this might sound crude, but I'm not trying to be) he didn't have his legs on so she decides to take a look around, lights weren't on and there's confusion. It's just another scenario. In all honesty, it sounds like he's done something terrible after a big argument. Truth will come out soon. Tragic story though.

Flying Fokker · Feb 14, 2013

He was just practising starts.

Wrong gift on valentine's day, a bunch of roses would have worked better IMO.

Tad · Feb 14, 2013

I'm sure there's a Bullet for my Valentine joke in there somewhere..

ajsccfc · Feb 14, 2013

This seems unfortunate. https://twitter.com/OscarPistorius/status/273337050470678528

Nothing like getting home to hear the washing machine on and thinking its an intruder to go into full combat recon mode into the pantry! waa

So does this...

It has been suggested that some drugs do make one paranoid.

speedie87 · Feb 15, 2013

Annoys me when I keep hearing that South Africa have 'very strict' gun laws. Ok they might have rules etc and prop more than America, but surely they aren't very strict, very strict in my book means virtually nobody can have a gun.

The Reverend Skyblue · Feb 15, 2013

I ve just heard the prosecution's case against Oscar Pistorius has collapsed ,as forensics have found a footprint at the scene

Hugh Jarse · Feb 15, 2013

Oscar, bless him. Who would have thought a man with no legs was better at shooting that McSheffrey!

This really is a bizarre decision by the judge!

I know, I never thought he would of, err, walked.

Covstu · Feb 23, 2013

goes to show that money talks, I cannot believe it was a four (or fie) day hearing just for his bail!!!

speedie87 · Feb 23, 2013

It looks like he'll get off the premeditated murder charges.

Does anyone know what the likely sentence will be for just manslaughter charges?

I reckon they could always electronically ankle-tag him. They'd know where he was at all times then, wouldn't they?
