EFT Report, Johannesburg: South African Paralympic and Olympic star Oscar Pistorius—accused of shooting his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp—appeared in tears at a Pretoria court on Friday, Feb. 15, 2013. He is facing a single charge of murder.
The police found Reeva Steenkamp, 30, in a puddle of blood, dead from gunshot wounds at Pistorius’s house on Thursday morning. Steenkamp was a model about to make her debut on a reality TV show.
Pistorius won two gold medals and a silver at last September’s Paralympic Games in London. In the 2012 Olympics, he reached the 400-meter semifinal and competed in the 4x400-meter relay.
In the Paralympics, Pistorius won individual gold, successfully defending his 400-meter title. He was a part of the gold medal-winning 4x100-meter relay team. He came in second in the 200-meter race.
Pistorius was born without fibula bones and had both legs amputated below the knee as an infant. Yet he became the first Paralympic sprinter to compete against able-bodied athletes at the Olympics in London 2012.
