Oscar Pistorius? Murderer? Say it isn't so!


Link.

This will no doubt be a changing moment in his career besides making it to the semifinals of the men's 400m at London 2012.

I've been a fan of his for the last couple of years. No matter if it was London 2012, Daegu 2011 or even any IAAF Diamond League event, he was there just to show everyone that he could run with able-bodied runners.

It is sad that some people will look down to him just like to others like O.J. Simpson, Ray Lewis, and others that have been in the negative spotlight over the past decades. I'm going to say that he probably didn't do it, instead someone came in and burglarized the home. Not surprising, that in post-Apartheid South Africa, burglaries have increased nationwide.

This will have the same light as the O.J. Simpson trial in the months to come. As a result, feminist groups will protest his actions once he's free, and if he ever returns to the track, I'm assuming he'll end up dealing with death threats as well.

With that in mind, he will be a free man soon. Think of the Badr Hari saga where the boxer/kickboxer was framed of murder in the Netherlands and has been undergoing legal wranglings the past few months. He will be free as well.

FREE OSCAR!
