Surely Oscar Pistorious can't be the only man to wake up legless on Valentine's day and shoot all over his wifes face imagining she was someone else?

As dodgy as the reason sounds, he may very well have shot mistakenly. Now if there was serious friction in the days leading up to the death, then it doesn't bode well for him.

Indeed....but...


The athlete's home is in a high-security up-market gated compound on the outskirts of Pretoria.

Burglars would not be the first thought in a place like that, surely?

One of the news articles mentions Pistorious sying that a gated community is ok unless the guards are in cahoots with the burglars.

I'm going with a Valentine's Day surprise by Reeva gone horribly wrong.
