South African Olympic Hero Oscar Pistorius Sentenced (SEE DETAILS)


Judge Thokozile Masipa sentensed Oscar Pistorius to a maximum of five years' imprisonment for culpable homicide for the murder of his late girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. 

By law Oscar will serve at least 10 months before asking to convert the sentence to house arrest. Although, It will be up to the court to make that decision.

South African prisons are often a difficult environment even for the fittest of inmates. I wonder how a double amputee that needs prosthetic limbs to get around like Oscar will survive in such environment. Oh well, you commit a crime, you pay the price. 

I think that the crime were premeditated and that 5 years sentence is not enough punishment for murder.
