I believe, in my own personal world and obviously opinion that Oscar will plea bargain out of this......

South African lawyers love to plea bargain and I think that this is the only way for him to remain out of prison for a very long time.

IMO Oscar will never see the trial date of June 4th. Things will be long resolved by then.

Anybody have an opinion?

My Opinion

Justice in this country is b@lls where someone is murdered and it is brushed aside as a "mistake" .
and worst of it the case gets treated months from now wen half the country has forgotten about it .

some urgency we have in this country to detain or deal with criminals ...................

but let me crack a window at a local library or something (lol) and see the cops at my house in 5 mins and i get a R500 fine tomorrow or 3 months in prison .

BASICALLY WE LIVE IN A CUNTRY WHERE THE PIZZA GETS TO UR HOUSE BEFORE THE POLICE!

The state will want to go all the way with this one, especially with a all publicity about women and child abuse in SA at the present... BUT then that's just my opinion i certainly do not qualify judicially on the subject matter.

We must not forget another bail hearing that is in progress, Anene Booysen... Another case of a country failing its citizens in South Africa.:(

Oscar will never get away with this. He will get a maximum sentence.

Oscar on the verge of suicide - friend
2013-03-10 21:27



London - Oscar Pistorius is a broken man "on the verge of suicide" as he fights a charge of premeditated murder, a friend of the disgraced Paralympic star has said.

Pistorius stands accused of murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day.

The 26-year-old South African, who has won six gold medals at the Paralympics, claims he shot her through a bathroom door thinking she was an intruder.

Speaking in the upcoming BBC3 documentary Oscar Pistorius: What Really Happened?, close friend Mike Azzie said the star was "a broken man" since the incident, and his state of mind has worsened since he was tasked with selling his racehorses to raise money to pay for his spiralling legal fees.

Azzie also said Pistorius, who is out on bail, regularly talks about Steenkamp as he awaits his next court appearance on 4 June.

"He just always seems to mention Reeva and to ask us to pray for her and her family," Azzie said.

"But most of all, you've got to understand that we are there for him and we will always be his friend.

"He has no confidence in his tone of voice and he is just a man that is almost like someone that is walking around in circles and doesn't know where he is going.

Plea bargain

"I would say that, just speaking to him, that he is a broken man and that I would go as far to say that he would be on the verge of suicide. It really worries me."

According to the documentary makers, Mentorn Media, police in Johannesburg said they have requested all records of phone calls and messages exchanged between Pistorius and Steenkamp on the day she was killed.

Officers added they were also sifting through a "massive" number of texts on Steenkamp's phone, producers said.

There are no plans for police to enter into a plea bargain with Pistorius's legal team for a lesser charge, the show's makers claimed.

The documentary, which airs on Monday, also shows Steenkamp's close friend Gina Myers taking the cameras into her bedroom as she recalls the last time they were together.

She said: "I was doing my hair and she was getting ready for a meeting and I was getting ready to go to work.

"And when she left she told me I was going to be awesome and that she loved me and then I ran out and then I gave her a hug and she left."
