Oscar Pistorius: The Murder Of Reeva Steenkamp

The South African Paralympic and Olympic sprinter, Oscar Pistorius, convicted of killing his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, on February 14, 2013. Pistorius claimed he mistook Steenkamp for an intruder and shot her through a locked bathroom door in his home. The trial, highly publicised and marked by intense media scrutiny, exposed conflicting testimonies and highlighted issues of domestic violence and gun control. Initially convicted of culpable homicide (manslaughter), the charge was later upgraded to murder on appeal. In 2017, Pistorius received a 13-year prison sentence, solidifying his dramatic fall from grace.
