Oscar Pistorius sentenced to 5 years in Prison

21 October 2014

On February 14th Oscar Pistorius was charged with maslaughter for the killing of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. He has finally been jailed for 5 years in prison. The defence asked for a house arrest while the prosecution asked for 10-5 years

According to legal experts  he may not spend all 5 years in prison as the commissioner of correctional services could convert the sentencing to community service at anytime they deem fit. He was calm through and after the sentencing and it's unsure if he would appeal.All the drama expected was absent. No words, no reactions as the judge handed the sentence.
