Today marks the beginning of Judge Masipa’s sentencing for last year’s Valentine’s Day tragedy that saw Oscar Pistorius shooting and killing his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
The trial, which has been broadcast live on television (as well as an online audience), has gripped the attention of the world, as everyone anticipates what Oscar’s fate will be.
Just last month, he was found guilty of culpable homicide, but the case of premeditated murder was dismissed.
