Not guilty of 'premeditated murder'........Guilty of firearms charges.

Andrew Harding Africa correspondent tweets: Most witnesses got their facts wrong, says Judge, citing media attention and fact that witnesses had followed trial in news. Important.
Andrew Harding Africa correspondent tweets: Conclusion that #OscarPistorius version re. his screams not contradicted by state is crucial - premeditated murder verdict seems unlikely?

judge bottled it? legal jargon over "premeditated" IMO she had locked herself in the bathroom to get away from him. How many couples lock the bathroom door in the middle of the night when taking a pee? The premeditation might have only been minutes before he shot in anger.

11:48: To recap: Judge Thokozile Masipa has now dismissed all the possible murder charges in the Oscar Pistorius trial. The only two remaining charges are either culpable homicide or acquittal.

Culpable homicide" has been defined simply as "the unlawful negligent killing of a human being" Think she will go for that

It was the sound of her locking the bathroom door that made him fire. He thought someone was coming out.He was already armed at that point.

Lets hope that fame and the celebrity status don't detract from the right verdict, not premeditated as that would mean he planned it, but he is a volatile character with a love of guns, shoot first question later, argument teach you a lesson, no thought for safety, he may also face charges for discharging a gun in a public place.

If she was locking the door then presumably about 20 seconds earlier she was getting out of bed to walk to the loo in which time Oscar not realising she is next to him grabs his gun-- follows and shoots-- too improbable for me.

today found guilty of culpable homicide/manslaughter.
can be sentenced for up to 15years!
also heard he was found guilty of one of the possession/discharging of firearm charges too.
I've thought all along it was manslaughter not murder so glad that's been confirmed. But not happy that he could actually get off with just a fine.
