Pistorius’ lawyer read his client’s sworn affidavit to the judge, explaining that he believed an intruder was in his house on Valentine’s Day and he felt vulnerable because he was in bed without his prosthetic legs, and that’s why he pumped a round of bullets into the bathroom door.
The prosecutor didn’t believe a word Pistorius said, saying the motive was simple — “I want to kill.” Prosecutor Gerrie Nel said the Olympian took the time to put his prosthetic legs on, walk 23 feet, and then he began shooting.
According to him, he carried her downstairs and “She died in my arms.”
The prosecutors however said there’s no truth in Pistorius’ word noting that he just finished exchanging hot words with Steenkamp when he fired 4 shots into the bathroom, hitting Steenkamp 3 times.
