In my personal opinion, he got away with murder. How very sad for the victims family members and loved ones. Lets hope the judge does a little better with his sentencing then she did the verdict. A South African judge on Friday found Oscar Pistorius guilty of culpable homicide in the shooting death of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp and declared him not guilty of murder. Prosecutors said they were disappointed by the ruling but would decide on whether to appeal only after sentencing. Judge Thokozile Masipa said there was not enough evidence to support the contention that Pistorius knew Steenkamp was behind a locked toilet door in his home when he shot through the door in the predawn hours of Valentines Day last year. Masipa said prosecutors had not proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Pistorius intended to kill Steenkamp. The killing by a national sports hero stunned South Africans, and reactions on the verdict were mixed. Well I think the verdict is shocking to say the least, said Leonard Gray in Port Elizabeth, Steenkamps home town. I think there is clear evidence and indications that he committed murder in this case. ... I feel sorry for Reeva Steenkamps family because they not going to get any closure because this guy is basically getting away with murder in my opinion. aol/article/2014/09/12/live-stream-judge-thokozile-masipa-delivering-verdict/20960758/?icid=maing-grid7|main5|dl1|sec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D528387
