Give The Man An Oscar
Oscar Pistorius sentencing: Blade Runner is 'a broken man who has lost everything'. Excuse me???? He has his life, his health, his wealth, his fame, his family, etc etc. The woman he shot is the one who lost everything, and her loved ones lost her. Anyone seriously see Pistorius as the victim here?

It's like with all really high profile trials. I was convinced OJ was guilty - one big point being that leather glove not fitting his hand...whilst he was wearing a rubber glove doh of course it won't fit. I'm convinced he's guilty, but probably just because of the way the trial is publicised. I'm hoping there was so much that wasn't publicised that, if we had heard it, would swing favour his way. Otherwise, I'm back to being a total pessimist regarding justice for the rich and the poor being an uneven gamble.
Does a 'broken' man go out nightclubbing whilst on bail and get into an altercation?

Although I entirely agree with the point that Pistorious has lost nothing compared to his vicitm and her family, the defence has to put something forward. The alternative would be to agree that he is guilty as charged, and should be torn to pieces by wild animals.
The legal system depends on the production of evidence, for and against, and that includes any and all efforts to back up the evidence, however unreal such efforts may appear.
We shall see if the sentence fits the crime in due course.

He is not 'Guilty as charged' he's guilty as decided by the judge, of manslaughter. He will not 'get away' with anything as whatever sentence is doled out it will be one that is lawful in South Africa for the crime he committed. Of course Pistorius is not a victim, who is suggesting this other than the OP?

P was arguing with Jared M who had appeared for the other side ( had given damaging evidence )
Obviously it looked like a set up to me. P's 'jockey' should have been draggin him away ( perhaps they were ) as this would be enough to revoke bail
[ as I keep telling one of my bailed neighbours ]
