A Bloody Cricket Bat And Roids Were Reportedly Found In Oscar Pistorius' House

And here comes that ROID RAGE defense everybody knew was coming.

"Police sources" are still whispering into the ears of the media in South Africa and one police source says that a bloody cricket bat and some steroids were found in Oscar Pistorius' house. The source tells The City Press that Reeva Steenkamp's skull was crushed and so police are doing tests on the cricket bat to see if Oscar Pistorius beat her with it. They are also testing Oscar Pistorius' blood to see if roids were in his system that night.

The source tells The City Press that the police are starting to piece together the events of that night. They think that Reeva and Oscar got into a fight in his bedroom and he either used the cricket bat to beat her or she used the cricket bat to defend herself. The police found a cartridge in his bedroom, so they think he shot at her upstairs and then chased her to the bathroom where he shot through the door. Oscar reportedly called his father after the shooting and told his sister Aimee that he mistook Reeva for a burglar. Oscar's burglar defense makes so much sense, because Reeva was wearing a nightie at the time and we know that most thieves where flowy nighties when they rob a bitch.

Reeva's overnight bag and her iPad were found on the floor of Oscar's bedroom. The Daily Mail says that the media in South African is speculating that Reeva and Oscar might've fought about one of her ex-pieces. One source claims that right before she was murdered, Reeva got a text message on her iPad from her rugby playing ex-boyfriend Francois Hougaard. Francois' agent told the media to leave him out of this tragedy, because it had nothing to do with him.

And the South African media is really trying to outdo the Taiwanese CGI wizards, because they recreated the night of Reeva's murder in a comic strip. How do you say "I can't" in Afrikaans?

The Afrikaans word you were looking for was "ek kan nie". This is such a tragic story.... wish it never happened.

Can you imagine the terror she felt in the final minutes of her life? NO ONE should die like that.

It sounds as if his legal team is using the "intruder" stuff. Actually there isn't anything else, so they grab the last straw and I hope they fail.

Whatever's picture

Roid rage. Makes sense.

Meatblocks's picture

the murderer is in court now, lying that he awoke and heard noises in the bathroom and thought it was an intruder and that he called out for reeva and got no response.
-just take the muthafucka out back now and put a bullet in his useless brain.

There's so much stories swirling around in SA
Right now, even we don't know what's true ans
What's a lie....but he will go down for this
There is no way he will be set free.

Along with guns, cricket bats should be illegal.

WR, it was his evil twin that he didn't know about but was being stalked by him and HE commited the crime!

If my brother murdered his girlfriend, once I was pretty sure he did it, I would be like, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. I love you but I can't save you from this and you'll have to face the music. Man up.

I just feel like they are going to pull out all stops to paint Reeva in a bad way and not let anything get in the way of getting him off scott free.

And her poor family. They may say they have no ill will toward him right now, but the nightmares haven't even begun. They will relive her last moments once the coroner's report is released. Months afterwards, they will think, "Oh, I need to call my daughter (sister, granddaughter, etc.,...) and tell her about so and so" only to get a knife in the gut in that split second realization that she is gone. The murder of anyone is tragic. The murder of a defenseless woman, who most likely knows she is going to die at the hands of a psychopath, is a neverending hell.

This will just get uglier and uglier...they will be digging into this girl's background, ex-bfs, boozin and whatever else they can find so they can paint this guy in the most favorable light. Reeva was so misbehaved and he, being sooooo in love, tolerated it until he just exploded. That text was the last of it! Ugh.

Not a lawyer but if this is framed as a crime of passion, it's still homicide. Could be a mitigating factor. Not sure, though.

Jury trails are even more fucked up.
A judge (in general) is better and more level-headed, you can buy both so if the system is corrupt neither will safe yer arse. A judge will cost ya much more $ to buy out though, general dumb-ass public is happy with nothing..a judge will laugh at anything that isn't above his general pay. On top of that a jury is often made-up of fucktards that are easily influenceable with proper propaganda..which is free.

The SA system is corrupt. He'll never plead guilt and will most likely walk (no pun intended). ;)
______________________________________________
I agree in that the SA justice system is probably quite corrupt and like in a lot of countries money often buys "justice" but this case is so high profile do you think Oscar's camp will be able to maneuver their way around with the whole world watching? I don't know, I think in this case the cops know the brutality in which she was killed and in spite of the fact he's a national hero they really seem intent on getting their man. I think this is why details are getting leaked. I guess anything is possible but I would be absolutely shocked if he got off on this. Having said that OJ got off so.... anything is possible?

They don't have jury trials there. Hopefully the judge doesn't f*ck this up or get paid off. And his family needs to STFU already.

I also have a half-baked theory about why there are so many leaks of information. Maybe the justice/police system is terribly corrupt and someone wants the public/world to know these little things that would otherwise be covered up. Possibly?

The story when it broke was very pro-Pistorius.

**************************************************
I was thinking this as well. It seemed to me that these leaks from the police started in reaction to the pro-Pistorius stuff coming from his family and the media.

Yup. I'd like to cite [something I read online], which said that the SA system involves a single judge with judicial assistants (maybe more like investigators, on the French model).

Having a jury is pretty much limited to systems modeled on the old English system.

Hey TR, I am waiting for the ridiculous moment his team blames it on the asteroid. I'm serious. He saw it on tv, it triggered violent memories and that drove him to attack her. The things they come up with. Just you wait.

Looks like they're laying the groundwork for "she was cheating on him" now.
___________________________________________

I'm not familiar with SA law, but a crime of passion is still considered murder, right? If (and it's a big IF) his girlfriend of two months was cheating, he could ask her to leave, break up with her, call her names. Nothing excuses shooting her 4 times unless she had a gun pointing back at him. And the fact that they tried to play it off as a burglar/accident first really makes this look bad. They're throwing out every possibility to see what sticks and I hope the judge can see through all of the nonsense.

I hope his lawyers won't play the disability card. It woudn't be fair. While I think his disability fucked with his brains and contributed to the man that he became (no self-esteem, jealousy)it would be hypocritical at this point as the guy fought to be able to compete in races with not disabled athletes. The mofo better be consistent.

Whamo, Haribo, from what I hear he's loaded so what else can we expect? And I don't buy the roids argument either. This reminds me of that Van der Sloot guy and how he went off on that poor girl. With or without roids/drugs/alcohol they'll try to use that argument. Independent of the trial, this man has screwed up his life. It makes me sick.

no doubt we will find out allll about his childhood trauma. i still don't know how he lost his legs, but i guess i'm even less interested than i was before.

WR, good point about the "asteroid rage" - perhaps some Kryptonite fell on him.

apeaking of making jokes - attempting to lighten things up with some silly passing remark isn't the same as a tasteless, disrespectful statement. i thought the "Mean Girls" joke was no big deal.

let's say you did believe his family's laughably hamhanded attempts to spin this ... even if a burglar were cowering in the bathroom with the door locked, why wouldn't you just call 911 instead of firing repeatedly through a door? if the burglar were hiding, they don't really pose a threat that needs to be met with deadly force

he needs to just shut his family's communal yapper and plead guilty to second degree murder 'cause any judge or jury's gonna find him guilty of first degree murder

Whamo,

My guess is this narcissist would try to flee the country, not commit suicide.

@ Reason......

A narcissist would be less apt to kill himself, good points and I guess I'm inclined to agree with you on that.

The only thing is where could he run to? I would think he'd have to surrender his passport and it would be near impossible for him to blend in so if he did make a run it he'd have to run to a country that had an extradition treaty sending someone back to SA. With this being such a high profile case of murder I can't see any country that would refuse to expell him.

I thought 'roids shrank a man's willy. Didn't know they also affected the brains to such a degree where they could be blamed for murdering someone. I mean I'm sure they do affect your behavior and conduct but holy christ...I think other inner factors are to be taken into consideration as well. If we just blame roids I'm afraid murderers are going to use em as an excuse...'Hey judge, I ain't done no shiz, blame da roids yo!'.

Off comment

I may have mentioned I taught French to two middle-aged men in my living room. After two years and gallons of coffee and wine they were still unable to make simple sentences. As far as my teaching abilities go, I don't think that there was much to brag about. It was fun, though.

As for me kissing lonely ass, there are some people on here who have always been nice and welcoming to me. I see no reason not to return the favor.

Your apology is accepted but not needed. Phrasing thoughts in a foreign language is not always easy. In the quest for verbal perfection content may sometimes inadvertently take a back seat. Looking back, some of my comments from the past merit the epithete of 'simple'. I guess it's all about living and learning.

You have a nice day too (really).

Fame and money are not everything. He had no legs. Isn't that enough to make you lose your brains?? People are different.

I think deep down he hated himself and just took it out on his gf. She had the misfortune to meet him and let him into her life. Wouldn't it be Reeva, it'd be somebody else.
