SCA hears state appeal against Pistorius conviction

The Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein hear an application by the National Prosecuting Authority to challenge Oscar Pistorius's culpable homicide conviction. In 2014, the Blade-runner was convicted of shooting dead Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day in 2013. The state believes Judge Thokozile Masipa erred in her application of the law when handing down judgment.

    We only have Pistorius' word that He thought he was in danger and thought Reeva was in the bedroom - how can they be 'factual findings' ??? Are courts always expected to believe the testimony of people charged with crimes or is it possible that the accused will tell lies to protect themselves and evade punishment ?

    It's a cold day in hell when people can get shot for going to the bathroom. It's a cold day in hell when you can shoot through walls just because a noise was made. If people get as scared as Oscar did, they need to be put either in prison or in a nut house. There's no excuse for what he did. Find your loved ones before shooting through walls. Show some balls. If he's moving fans and he can't figure out that she went to pee than he's crazy. It can't happen. He knew it was her. He found out that she was leaving him for a man with legs and balls.

He made up the window sliding open and later add the slamming. He made up the door slamming and changed the whisper to a low tone. He said in his bail that he went onto the balcony to get 1 fan and changed that lie. Everything he said was a lie.

    I'm sure not even Barry Roux believes what's coming from his mouth when he argues Oscar's state of mind. If Oscar is so overly anxious, why did he go to sleep with his balcony door open and ladders stacked on the ground below it and why did he leave a broken window on the ground floor unrepaired? Furthermore, not only did he have a housekeeper on site, but his property was being checked hourly by security guards. And to top it off he's never been burgled, so if he is as overly anxious as Roux claims he should have been in a secure psychiatric unit, because he posed a danger to the public.

They look at what the law says, and apply It to facts placed before them.

I do have a legal background for advocating for victims. The Superior Court having now found Mr.Pistorius guilty of "Dolus Eventualis" meaning for a variety of reasons Mr Pistorius should have foresaw he placed whomever was in the toilet closet in imminent danger with his pistol loaded with a specific ammunition and should have foresaw death would be a possibility. Thus meeting the criteria for murder

    Carolyn Porter​​​ Congratulations on back tracking! You thought that nothing would become of the appeal. The legal basis of appeal -Dolus Eventualis was flawless. All you kept repeating over and over again was that he has an anxiety disorder and that he was hypervigilant. There are 100s of thousands of people with anxiety disorders, they don't shoot indiscriminately into doors! 'Advocate for victims', well you certainly haven't 'advocated' for Reeva! All your comments prove to me is that perhaps you are a mental health nurse. If you were legally qualified (as I am) you wouldn't spout such disputed garbage and with such conviction! Most of it you got from Annette Vergeer and a psychologist paid for by Pistorius. That evidence was met with huge scepticism by the judge. Seriously you suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect as someone else mentioned on here. Although that isn't an excuse either for discharging a firearm! Don't be flattered honey. Just be honest, state your opinion but don't spout it as if you are the oracle.  p.s Yes, 'applying the law' is a better phrase than 'evoking the law'. It was the way it was stated in law school to me. You know, the place you think you went to.

    You flatter me with your lengthy comment...thank you! I shall return it to you!! I believe Roux got the Defense strategy wrong but where could he go? There's a reason Mr Pistorius shot into the door. His Psychological report certainly lent itself in a direction where Pistorius is a compromised individual. You also have it partially wrong....once Roux erroneously put Dr Merryl Vorster on the stand to testify on how Pistorius suffered from GAD was crying and genuinely upset etc he opened the door for Nel to then say well maybe the Defendant should be tested and thus Masipa commissioned and ordered such to be done independently at Weskoppies Hospital. So not all was bought by his team. Get your facts straight. I have attended law school but didn't complete due to my having a physical disability. But my work throughout the years provides experience in the field. Beginning with the reason for my advocating work which are for Domestic Violence as one who suffered and endured Spousal abuse. As well as I also come from a family who suffered a great loss as I lost my grandmother and my uncle to murder suicide. So my opinions are valid to me and I'm entitled to my own opinion. Thank you! This case was plagued from the likes of Botha in the beginning and the botched police work during the investigation. I stand on my opinion and base it on the findings of the report and some of the Prosecution's own case in chief. We know Prosecution doesnt have to provide motive but Nel went to great lengths to try didnt he? For example in over how many 1000s of texts and the like he found 1 argument and his own witness testified he found the reading to be that of a normal couple. Nel had to reverse his position about Pistorius wearing his prosthetics. He also lost the argument about the jeans. My bottom lines are....again sorrow for the loss of Ms Steenkamp and for her family. Sorrow for the Pistorius family and the fall from grace. I do not believe Pistorius meant to kill Ms Steenkamp or anyone. I just believe he is a paranoid, hyper vigilant individual and those like him who are vulnerable to the point they feel no recourse but to own a gun and just go shooting into doors because he hears sounds and is negligent in seeking out the causation is just negligent and it unfortunately led to a death. We shall see what is next....to be continued!

My wife go to the toilet all the time and I always hear noises in the house. I have never panicked and gone ballistic. My loved one would all be dead if I did what Oscar did. He's lying and he's missing his balls as well as his legs. All the evidence shows that he mentally abused women when people weren't looking and then he finally killed one of his female victims.

    I find it ironic that all of the "factual findings" that Barry Roux quotes aren't actually factual. They're based on Pistorius's lies that, perhaps, could not be disproven. The gunshots, the death or Reeva - these are factual. "Pistorius thought his life was in danger" is only a claim made by Pistorius, whose testimony has been widely regarded as unreliable, inconsistent and based on a series of unlikely circumstances that are all required to make the story possible.

Op story is a lie. His story may have covered up other pieces of "evidence" that were found but his lame attempt to convince the court to believe that he thought she was still in the bed should have never been successful. Masipa is an idiot. Congrats to Nel and condolences to the Steenkamp fam.

    +Nick Harris Because culpable homicide conviction rested on parts of Oscar's evidence - even though he was deemed a "poor witness". The argument is that his evidence was actually "impossible" because of circumstantial evidence ignored by trial court. If that is the case then his version should be set aside completely - including all the stuff about him being scared. Because no independent evidence of how or why he fired shots. It would simply turn on the firing of bullets through a door into a small space. SO circumstantial evidence still relevant in strengthening Nel's argument that Oscar's evidnece should be ignored completely - and form no part of the judgement.

If he shot maybe just once he may have been believed, when you shoot someone 4 times you want that person dead. He is controlling, jealous and self entitled.

If he is found guilty it is clearly premeditated as he had already had an alibi as he came down carrying her body and saying he shot her cos he thought she was the intruder....he was able to take stock of the enormity of his situation and create his defence on the day of the crime !

    Profiling this murder convict- one swallow does not make a summer Profiling attempts to derive hypothesis about an offender based on the analysis of the crime scene, victim information, current police intelligence of offenders, geographical profiling, racial profiling and equivalent death analysis. This is realistic but in the case of Olympic Gold Medallist and very severely disabled Oscar Pistorius, the prosecution and the global media tried extremely hard to drum up a nasty and portentious side of this athlete- we do not know how much money the television companies paid Pistorius’ ex-girlfriend and other to go on screen globally to destroy Pistorius’ character and reputation. Cheap social media communication has caused wars and forced courts to change verdicts We are no longer ruled by the Rule of Law. The media now rule the world in effect. There is no respect any longer for laws and protocols of behaviour and company governance. Politicians understand this and are unscrupulous, because today, money rules the world- newspapers thrive of controversy and conflict and without conscience they break legal rules; legal codes of ethics and rules of governance, as if the world is in a chaotic state of anarchy, evidence of which were the global protests against the world’s financial systems, such as Occupy Wall Street, (‘OWS’), a protest movement that began on 17 September 2011, in Zuccotti Park in New York’s Wall Street financial district, which received global attention due to the media and the Internet social media websites, thereby spreading the OWS movement against social and economic inequality worldwide. Criminal profiling Profiling is used when there are established profiles of certain types of personalities. However, as the proverb states: ‘One swallow does not make a summer’. The global public have always been gormless and today they can spread their lack of legal knowledge and lack of education by way of cheap Internet-equipped telephones and computers, offshoots of billions of pounds of military research to get mankind to the moon and a computer to planet Mars.

    A lot of people jump into conclusion that Oscar deliberately killed Reeva, and do so with conviction. I have a hard time believe so. I think the reason why they jump into this conclusion is because of the prosecutor skills. It is hard to explain your mental state or why we act a certain way, especially with this prosecutor. In my opinion, it is not fair to conclude that he is guilty because he contradicted himself. I wonder when would you believe an accused did not act erroneously. If I was in his position and believe there is imminent danger, I would not count how many shots I would fire. I just feel sorry for this guy because of the way people inherently think an accused is a liar and want to escape prison.
