MURDER : BLADE RUNNER OSCAR PISTORIUS SINKS DEEPER ... Prosecutors Argue Oscar Pistorius’ Motive Was Simply To Kill Girlfriend

Oscar Pistorius swore in court today that he believes he was shooting at an intruder when he gunned down girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp who was laid to rest today. Prosecutors however scoffed, saying he killed her on purpose.
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.
Pistorius claims he had no idea he was shooting at Steenkamp until he realized she was not in his bed. He said, “It filled me with horror and fear.”He claims he did not have his prosthetic legs on when he fired. He says he put his legs on, walked to the door and bashed it open with a cricket bat and discovered Steenkamp mortally wounded.
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.
