Encomium
The reduction of Paralympic champion Oscar Pistorious ‘ jail term from 15 years to 6 for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in 2013 has been declared untenable by concerned parties who claim the athlete is being pampered.
@JNyiggih The girlfriend is dead…we cant change that you know….I believe he didnt do it,it was accidental #OscarPistorius

The guy who impersonated maskandi singer Mgqumeni got 22 years but #OscarPistorius got 6 years for murdering someone? Where’s the logic?
— Senzokuhle Bhengu (@SirNZO_M) July 6, 2016
Only 6 years???? #OscarPistorius

So where murdering, lying about it being an accident and getting 6 years max fit this definition? #OscarPistorius pic.twitter.com/fFZmt6cRj7

I think Pistorius will only make the situation worse if he appeals… Too much points at him being guilty. Just do the time. #OscarPistorius

If six years is all you get for murder I would have turned into a criminal a long time ago. Outrageous #OscarPistorius #RIPReeva
— Rachel Walters (@RachelWalters94) July 6, 2016
Whether #OscarPistorius intended to kill Reeva is not clear to me, what’s clear is that he intended to kill whoever was behind the door
