Oscar Pistorius, das Model, der Valentinstag und das war dann Notwehr

Testifying on the fourth day of the trial, neighbor Johan Stipp said he entered the athlete's home, minutes after hearing screams and shots, to find the distraught South African sprinter kneeling over the lifeless body of a woman.

"I shot her. I thought she was a burglar and I shot her," Stipp quoted the 27-year-old Pistorius as saying.

Stipp, a doctor, went on to describe his futile attempts to revive Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model and law graduate who had been dating Pistorius for a few months.

She died after being hit by three rounds, including one to the head, out of four fired by Pistorius through the locked door of an upstairs toilet. He denies murder, arguing that he made a tragic mistake after mistaking her for an intruder on Valentine's Day last year.

As Stipp checked Steenkamp for signs of life, Pistorius was begging him to save her life, Stipp told the court.

"Oscar was crying all the time. He prayed to God: 'Please let her live, she must not die,'" he said.

At one point when Pistorius left Steenkamp, Stipp and housing complex manager Johan Stander to go upstairs, Stipp thought the athlete might be about to kill himself.

"I noticed that Oscar was going upstairs and I asked Mr. Stander if he knew where the gun was because it was obvious that Oscar was emotionally very, very upset," he said.

"I didn't know the situation in the house so I thought maybe he was going to hurt himself."

Stipp, a radiologist whose home is 72 metres from that of Pistorius, said he was woken early on 14 February last year by screams and gunshots. He went to the athlete's home to investigate and found him kneeling over the body of a woman. "At the bottom of the stairs ... there was a lady lying on her back on the floor," Stipp recalled. "I went nearer and as I bent down I noticed a man on his knees on the left side. He had his left hand on her right groin and his right hand second and third fingers in the mouth.

Dass sie geschrien haben könnte ist doch weiß Gott nicht abwegig, nach dem sie von 3 Schüssen getroffen wurde.

After week one, there are strong opinions on both sides but few would dare to predict the judge's verdict on Pistorius, a double amputee known as the "blade runner" because of his prosthetic limbs.

Da heißt es nur, man hat eine männliche und eine weibliche Stimme schreien hören. Von markerschütternden Schreien keine Rede. Und Mr. Stipp wohnt näher dran und konnte sogar das Badefenster sehen... er hört aber keine markerschütternden Schreie, die müsste er aber gehört haben, auch wenn er drin am Telefon bei offener Balkontür zu dem Zeitpunkt vielleicht war..
