A look at the first week following the murder of Reeva Steenkamp, a surreal sequence of drama and emotion, and a terrible crime chronicled by a ravenous global tabloid media.
A month after Pistorius shoots Reeva Steenkamp, he is out on bail; a forensics expert hired by his legal team helps him recreate his version of what happened that night.
When a judge is assigned to the Oscar Pistorius trial, the world watches closely; in this case, a judge, and not a jury, decide the defendant's fate; the judge, Thokozile Masipa, is a highly respected scholar who grew up in the Soweto Township.
The story of the Paralympic sprinter and gold medalist, who killed his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp in his home in the early hours of February 14th, and the world found a different person to the hero they thought they knew.
