He claimed he mistook his girlfriend for a burglar
when he shot her, but South African police has dismissed the claim. They
believe the blade runner killed his model girlfriend, 29 year old Reeva
Steenkamp, in a fit of rage possibly caused by performance-boosting steroids.
First steroids were found in his home. Then Reeva
was found in her night wear, which means she didn't just enter his home at the
time he shot her at 3am Thursday morning. The police found a bloody cricket bat
in the bedroom. Reeva's skull had been 'crushed' in the attack according to
police. They also found a smashed bathroom door. Plus neighbours claimed they
heard argument coming from his home earlier in the evening.

The police believe that Oscar first shot Reeva in
the bedroom, hit her in the hip. She ran and hid herself in the toilet; he
followed her and shot her three more times.
Police investigating the killing are focusing on
Reeva's iPad, they suspect she received an early-hours message that may have
sparked a row.
A South African news website today published a
colour graphic of what they believe happened in Oscar's home (above). He will
appear in court tomorrow and faces life in prison if convicted of premeditated
murder as alleged by the state prosecutors. Meanwhile Nike has dropped him as
their brand ambassador
