Why do you think he's innocent? I stopped following this ages ago. Didn't he shoot his girlfriend, who was one of the finest women in the world btw, several times through a bathroom door without warning? And wasn't he the jealous type and scared she was cheating on him (she was, because he was kind of a psycho apparently)? Didn't he claim he thought she was an intruder? Being paranoid is not a believable or valid excuse for what he did. What am I missing?
If anything, this light sentence was a show for the people after he got a pass from the South African gov't because he is one of their few world-recognizable icons and their beloved disabled Olympic athlete who "overcame adversity".
