Reeva Steenkamp and Oscar Pistorius - Part 2 of 3
Added 2026-01-03 22:13:50 +0000 UTCOn February 14, 2013, Valentine’s Day, the world was stunned by the news that South African Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius had shot and killed his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, inside his home in Pretoria.
What followed was one of the most closely watched criminal trials of the 21st century — a case that forced the public to grapple with uncomfortable questions about celebrity, justice, gender-based violence, and how much of a public figure’s private life we ever truly see.
This is not just a story about a famous athlete’s fall from grace. It’s a story about the gap between who someone appears to be and who they are behind closed doors, and how a young woman’s life was cut short in a moment of irreversible violence.

I hate hearing my own voice. It’s sounds child-like. You both have great audio voices. I’ve tried some pods and had to stop 3 min in due to the voice. So take my word for it lol. You all sound great.
