South African athlete Oscar Pistorius has been sentenced to 5 years in Prison for killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Judge Thokozile Masipa also gave Pistorius a three-year suspended sentence for a firearms charge. While his sentence was being read, Pistorius showed little reaction to the verdict other than to wipe his eyes before being led away to the cells downstairs. Judge Masipa said she considered her sentence "fair and just, both to society and to the accused". The bladerunner was convicted of culpable homicide but cleared of murder.
