Well he must have been mighty scared to shoot someone he couldn't see. :confused:

A terrible example of how life can sometimes take a massive turn for the worse when you're least expecting it.

You have to feel for everyone involved at this stage.

It seems police have now opened a murder case against him.

How can.shooting anyone four times be described as an accident.

It would be if he thought he was shooting a burglar.

Sad story beautiful woman to die.

We have to wait to see if his story fits the scene.

Jeremy Vine has just been talking about this on his show ,he had a guest on who lived in SA for many years and said that most people who have anything worth stealing sleep with a gun under their pillow and carry one in the street .Home invasion robberies are very common and very often lead to someone being shot so it is very plausible that he thought it was a robber if he wasn't expecting his girlfriend back ,although the latest was that he has been charged with murder and stories are emerging of his violent behavior and love of weapons

The news coming out doesn't paint a good picture. As the evidence builds, it doesn't look like Pistorius has a leg to stand on.

IMHO shot four times doesn't seem like an accident, and reports of an argument were reported before the shots.
