THE SHOCKING DEVELOPMENTS SURROUNDING OSCAR PISTORIUS.............

Six months ago South African runner Oscar Pistorius, a double legged amputee below the knee astounded the world with his performances in the London Olympics, and went on to win 2 Gold and 1 Silver medals in the Paralympic Games.  Today, he is charged with the murder of his 30 year  fashion model girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, was found dead in Pistoruis' Pretoria, South Africa home, the victim of multiple gunshot wounds.  Initial reports he made have shot her because of mistaken identity, thinking she was an intruder, gave way to the reality of previous domestic violence incidents at his home.  Yet another sports athlete to despoil himself and betray the acclaim his accomplishments gained him.  It is a sad, life taking tragedy and crime given the death of Ms. Steenkamp, and the destruction of the life of a man who against the extreme odds, made historical attainments.  Oscar Pistorius will now go from famous to infamous, and may well lose his life, for violently taking a life.  Let Justice be done.............tdp
