It does seem like they are treating him with kid gloves, I don't know what to believe anymore, especially after reading he was always pestering her, maybe the story that came out about him reading her text messages may be true 

The bugger is going to get off with it ain't he...

Hey hey hey you - calm it !!!

I'm not sure which way it will go, it's like OJ Simpson all over again

That's what I have been saying, it's just turning into a media circus and no justice will get served.

OJ could have wrote a book entitled 'The glove did fit after all', and this farce is going to go the same way.

I watched that trial from start to finish and that was a travesty   I didn't find out until years later the defence had used many dirty tactics so the glove appeared tight 

Dame it was a disgrace, and unfortunately, I can see this one going the same way.

I just saw the last known images of her via the cctv when she arrived at Oscar's gated community that night, she was smiling and happy as she seemed to talk to the security guard. So sad she never knew what was ahead. Apparently she was supposed to stay at a friend's house that night but became too tired to drive there so left her friend a message saying she was going to stay the night at Oscar's instead.

I saw that 

Didja notice that his  sister is called Aimee? What's that all about then? I think we should be told.

Bet she's a wrong 'un aswell.

And he followed just later..

This is now turning into a sick pantomime.

Pathetic.     I'm having a service, press please keep away... I know.. I'll issue a press release about it.     Is Max Clifford out there by any chance?

Good

Afraid I'll have to argue over this one Aims. I've met the geezer and he is very genuine. Nevertheless, I agree, he may have unpalatable traits. 

Last night I came across an article that mentioned a cricket bat was also used, I'd not heard that before. Then it described an event in graphic detail. I really wish I hadn't seen the article as I've not been able to get that image out of my head and as it mentioned the parents I keep wondering how they can either. I'm hoping it's not true even though I know it doesn't make a difference to what happened to her. "IF" it's true I cannot understand how he's out on bail.

Yep, something was being circulated about the cricket bat Yella. It has been alleged he hit her over the head with it before he allegedly shot her. 

He's a bad egg. Somebody needs to tell him to put a sock in it, slinck away and keep his trap shut. Her parents have enough on their plate.

Oh and Xochi, we need a bit of sunshine for our bones.  

Quite agree on both of your points Col. 

Maybe this will get us through.  

I've tried to believe he didn't mean to kill her, that he genuinly thought it was a burglar but now my belief is being stretched. Shame we have to wait till June for the trial, I'd like to see him take to the witness box and tell his story.

I want to hear his side too 

Because in South Africa the question of bail has nothing to do with the alleged crime.

I was starting to form a somewhat strange scenario in my head. I hadn't quite managed to slot the mobile phone in, but this--->"Reeva was living with her friend and her parents, her friends dad said after Reeva started dating Oscar he would not leave her alone, he kept pestering her, phoning and phoning her, he was hasty and impatient and very moody, that's my impression of him" <---- alters things.

Back to the drawing board!!!!

It seems very odd for such a new relationship to be so intense, it seems he likes to be in control

Well wot about his room mate for the Olympics refusing to stay in the same apartment and asked to be moved. He sed Oscar wud often be heard in heated arguments on the phone and displayed lots of Prima Dona behaviour that surpried him!!

From the Telegraph:

"I asked Fourie what it was like rooming with Oscar. He told me he had been forced to move out, because Oscar was constantly screaming in anger at people on the phone. I thought Fourie was joking and waited for him to smile. But he was serious. I was taken aback. I had never thought of Oscar behaving like that."

Yet an old coach of his said he had never seen him angry, Denise Lewis said everyone in athletics loves him 

.. behind closed doors eh?       he's not coming across as a nice guy now, is he?   

I still think the 'memorial' stunt was disgusting.

Here's an eye opener,

"Radio journalist David O'Sullivan first met murder suspect Oscar Pistorius   when he was 17. Here, he recalls a polite, unassuming man who was prone to   flashes of anger."

I think that's what it will come down to, he lost his temper and flipped
