Oscar Pistorius’ Apology: Did he hire an acting coach?

Have you heard that a well known South African journalist has come out and said that Oscar Pistorius hired an acting coach?

I haven’t seen the South African journalist talk of the alleged allegations to see if I believe her (she would have to talk in English for me to do an analysis), but I can tell you that to me Oscar Pistorius’ apology falls flat on its face.  Furthermore, his crying sounds like acting to me, so if he had a coach, they failed him.

Oscar said in his apology, “I would like to take this opportunity to apologize — to Mr. and Mrs. Steenkamp, to Reeva’s family — to those who are here today who knew her.”

He continued, “I’d like to apologise and say that there’s not a moment and there hasn’t been a moment since this tragedy happened that I haven’t thought about your family. I wake up every morning and you’re the first people I think of, the first people I pray for. I can’t imagine the pain and the sorrow and the emptiness that I’ve caused you and your family.”

“I was simply trying to protect Reeva. I can promise that when she went to bed that night she felt loved. I’ve tried to put my words on paper many, many times to write to you but no words will ever suffice” said Oscar.

I have to ask you what is Oscar apologizing for?  If you notice he doesn’t say.  He doesn’t claim what he has done on any level by owning that he accidentally took Reeva’s life nor does he talk of any regret!  Oh no.  In his apology he says he was SIMPLY just trying to protect Reeva.

Unbelievable!

I am also taken by his word choice when he says, “I can’t imagine the pain and sorrow and the emptiness.”

This stopped me dead in my tracks.

If you killed someone that you supposedly loved, would you not understand the pain, sorrow and emptiness left by her void?

Hello? Does that give you a clue to the callous mind of Oscar Pistorius?

Chilling, isn’t it?

If you cared and loved her as he claimed–you most certainly would UNDERSTAND!

Can you see how he misses the mark with his words?

His cry on an emotional level is void, too. He isn’t shedding any tears that are noteworthy if you ask me because if he did, he would have congested his sinuses, but he clearly didn’t.

Oscar Pistorius is a cold-blooded killer if you ask me.  A remorseless man who is only feeling horrible at the thought of losing his freedom!

My Thoughts on Oscar Pistorius

My thoughts on Oscar Pistorius haven’t changed any since we first heard that Reeva Steenkamp was killed in February 2013.    It was shortly after Reeva’s death that Oscar released a statement to the media and it was full of hot spots for me.  You can read my analysis back from that time here.

Now with Oscar on trial, while I haven’t had time to watch much, I can tell you from what little glimpses I have heard of him speaking on the stand, he hasn’t done one thing to change my mind any. I don’t believe Oscar’s version of events at all.

Reeva Steenkamp feared Oscar Pistorius

Did you read the latest news? Reeva texted Oscar: “I’m scared of you sometimes and how you snap at me and how you will act towards me.”

She also texted the week before her murder: “I can’t be attacked by outsiders for dating you, and by you.”

I didn’t believe Oscar Pistorius from day one when he released his statement to the media. It clearly told us what the truth was then when we analyzed it. Now, with the trial, we get the facts to support what we saw.

Fascinating, isn’t it? And yet so very tragic.
