My Name is Reeva: I Was Murdered by Oscar Pistorius on SBS – It was one of the world’s most notorious and shocking murders, South African Paralympian and international sports superstar, Oscar Pistorius, a.k.a. ‘The Blade Runner’, murdered his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine’s Day in 2013.
The investigation, trial and sentencing of Oscar should have revealed the truth, but it didn’t, instead, it muddied the waters. Oscar’s initial sentencing almost robbed Reeva of justice but her parents, Barry and June, along with the State fought to have the ruling overturned.

Some may argue that Reeva got justice, but can there ever be justice without truth?
