Oscar Pistorius gets 5 years' prison

PRETORIA, South Africa -- Oscar Pistorius has been sentenced to five years in prison for killing girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

Judge Thokozile Masipa delivered the ruling on Tuesday after reviewing prosecution arguments for a tough sentence as well as the defense case for a more lenient punishment for the double-amputee Olympic runner.

Pistorius killed Steenkamp on Valentine's Day last year, shooting her through a closed toilet door in his home. Pistorius testified that the shooting was an accident after mistaking his girlfriend for a nighttime intruder.

Masipa convicted him of culpable homicide, or negligent killing, but acquitted him of murder.

Before announcing her decision, Masipa acknowledged that sentencing is "not a perfect exercise."

"A non-custodial sentence would send the wrong message to the community. But a long sentence would also not be appropriate, because it would lack mercy," she said.

Under the terms of the sentence, Pistorius could become eligible for a sentence conversion after he has served one-sixth of his sentence - 10 months in prison - at which time the prison term could be converted to correctional supervision.

he might not do a year

You would think it was the other way, since black folk are the majority in South Africa.
