Oscar Pistorius Given 6 Years For Reeva Steenkamp Murder
South Africa Olympic athletic Oscar Pistorius has been sentenced to six years in prison for the murder of his girl friend Reev Steenkamp in 2013. The verdict comes after his initial five - year conviction for manslaughter was changed to murder last December on appeal..
He was taken immediately to jail. Both the prosecution and defence can appeal. Pistorius, 29, shot Reeva Steenkamp four times through a locked toilet door in February 2013. He admitted shooting her, but said he mistook Ms Steenkamp for an intruder and acted out of fear.
