His reaction to the verdict is either the reaction of an innocent man or the that of a world class actor. He made a mistake and tried to hide it.

tyson55: The view I formed from watching the trial was that Pistorius is guilty of murder but the judge has to go on the evidence and what she is has said is that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. Yes, Pistorius shot at the bathroom door, knowing he would kill someone but in the absence of proof (other than his own evidence) how can she conclude that he knew Reeva Steenkamp was behind the door?

You hit the nail on the head, Tyson55. She is a top class and totally ethical judge and unfortunately the facts as reported do not allow her to hand down a sentence of murder. What she may privately believe is another matter.
Once again this shows that having the money to pay for good legal representation is the be all and end all in this type of case.
As has been speculated on here from the start, it seems more than a little unlikely that he would have left the bedroom, armed, looking for an intruder without making sure that his lover was safe.
He was still shooting with intent to kill and I hope she has it in her powers to send him down for a decent stretch.

The case is not over yet. There are still more charges that the judge is yet to read her verdict on

Within these 24hrs a lot of money could exchange hands and a lot of compromises made. Anyway, the international community is watching.

bizngr: Praise da Lord!
Praise da lord for killing is fiancé and getting away with murder? why are you praising the lord? Is it for pumping gun seven times through bathroom door while she was screaming for help? Its a matter of time mark my word he will kill again. I hope you or your love one don't end up in similar situation. I can only imagine what the parent of his girlfriend going through right now with this injustice...when a killer has been let loose.....

Donkunxex: since 2013,,,I thought there's someting they call "THE LIE DETECTOR!". .. ain't watchinq trisha again...
Polygraph tests are not characterized as "admissable evidence" in most courts...In the U.S, it won't make it past the D.A's office..Pistorius cheated the system...In courts, its not whether you are guilty or not, its a matter of if the Prosecution can prove it "Beyond Reasonable Doubt"...meaning that under normal circumstances, the side with the better lawyers will win! Chikena!
Re: Oscar Pistorius Found Not Guilty Of Murder by Nobody: 1:56pm On Sep 11, 2014
Many don't really understand the rudiment of prosecution. The first rule is that everyone is innocent until proved otherwise. I'm sick of Nigerians giving a conspiracy theory to anything not going as their wish.
The judge rightly said that the prosecution couldn't prove pre meditated murder and murder and hence leaving only culpable homicide which itself doesn't have a minimum sentence but a maximum sentencing of 15yrs. Lest we forget, he still has two other charges each worth 5yrs imprimprisonment for him. At least let's trust the judiciary. Btw , if it were to be in Nigeria, the highest briber will win the case......

Truly indeed there is no a perfect Jugde as Almighty Lord, He does not rely on the evidence put before him or charges to be proven beyond reasonable doubt because He is a witness to that which is hidden or couldnt be proven, He delivers His judgemenr with accurate precision.No wonder Yoruba would say 'Mo fa e le Kootu Olohun' I hand you over to God's judgement.God watches over all and shall deliver His right judgement to whomsoever. 'Alae sa llahu bi aakamil Aakimin?'
