Oscar Pistorius vs The Truth: Five Stunning Claims by Author

Oscar Pistorius, a Paralympian superstar smacked his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp with a cricket bat before he killed her with a gunshot. A new book called “Oscar vs The Truth” claimed so after looking into the forensic evidence of the sensational case.
 
Statements by the Prosecution , in relation to sentence and OP's interview scheduled for 24th June

Andrea Johnson, the deputy prosecutor in the case, said they would push for the full 15-year minimum term, and would appeal if the judge ordered him to serve fewer than eight.

“This was a gruesome murder and we have dealt with other gruesome murders that were not even of an intimate partner as this was who have received a full sentence,” she said. “We will be seeking that for him.”

The athlete has given his first major interview since the crime, to the UK’s ITV news, although it will not be screened until June 24. The prosecution team warned this too will count against him at sentence.

Mrs Johnson branded the Pistorius family “arrogant” for agreeing to speak and said they would seek to determine whether his comments in the interview were a mitigating, or aggravating, factor in his sentence
.

Let's hope that the TV appearance gains him points in the aggravation stakes. Explaining his side of the story could, potentially imply a lack of acceptance and remorse AND balance out the predictable claims that "trial by media" has ruined his life.

Oscar Pistorius’s Murder Sentence Is Increased to 15 Years

The Supreme Court of Appeal increased the sentence on Friday to 15 years but deducted the time he has already served either in prison or under house arrest, meaning that he faces an outstanding sentence of 13 years and five months. South African law sets 15 years as the recommended minimum for murder, but it can be lower if there are mitigating circumstances.

- South Africa’s Constitutional Court has dismissed an application by paralympic gold medallist Oscar Pistorius to appeal his sentence for murdering his girlfriend, legal documents showed on Monday.

“The Constitutional Court has considered the application for condonation and leave to appeal. It has concluded that ... the application for leave to appeal should be dismissed as it does not engage this court’s jurisdiction,” read the court’s order dated March 28 and made public by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) on Monday
