Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko nga roia mo Oscar Pistorius (i whakaahuatia i tana whiu i Oketopa) kua kore i roto i ta raatau tono ki te aukati i nga kaituku whakawa ki te whakahe i te whakawakanga o te kaitakaro mo te patu i tana hoa wahine a Reeva Steenkamp i mate i te rua tau ki muri. Kua rahua ngā roia a Oscar Pistorius i a rātau whakamātau ki te whakamutu i ngā kaitōrangapū e tono ana ki te whakawātea i te whakawātea o te kaitākaro e rua nei. I whakakahoretia e te Kai-whakawa a Thokozile Masipa to ratou tono ki te whakahe i te tono a nga kaitohutohu, e hiahia ana kia whakawakia a Pistorius mo te whakapae nui ake mo te kohuru mo te pupuhi i tana hoa wahine, a Reeva Steenkamp, i nga wa maha i roto i te wharepaku i tona whare i te ra o Valentine i te tau 2013. 'Ko te whakahau e whakawhiwhia ana e au i roto i tenei take ko te whakakore i te tono,' i kii te Kai-whakawa Masipa i roto i tana whakataunga i tenei ra, i te whakakore i te tono a te kaitiaki. I te marama o Tihema, i whakaaetia e te Kai-whakawa a Masipa nga kaituku ki te kawe i te keehi ki te Kooti Nui o Awherika ki te Tonga me te whakahe i tana ake whakatau ki te whakawatea i a Pistorius mo te kohuru me te whakatau i a ia he hara, kaua he whakapae iti ake e rite ana ki te kohuru. I tautohe nga roia a Pistorius kia kaua e whakaaetia e te kaiwhakawa taua tono. Ko te toa o te Opepika me te toa Paralympic maha kei te mahi i te whiu herehere mo te rima tau mo te kohuru hara, te kohuru mangere ranei. Ka taea e te 28 tau te pakeke te tuku mai i te whare herehere i te taone nui, i Pretoria, i te marama o Akuhata ki te mahi i te toenga o tana whiu i raro i te whare herehere. Mēnā ka angitu ngā kaiwhakawā i roto i tō rātou amuamu ki te whakawā i te whakawā i te marae nui o te amuamu, ā, ka whakahoutia ki te kohuru, ka tū a Pistorius ki te 15 tau i te whare herehere. Ko te Kai-whakawa Masipa, nāna i arahi i te whakawakanga o Pistorius e whitu marama te roa, me te tīmatanga o te tukanga tono a ngā kaituku, i whakatau i tana whakataunga hou i muri i tētahi hui kōti poto i Johannesburg. I whakahaerehia te whakawa a Pistorius i tētahi atu whare whakawa i Pretoria. I rahua te tono: Ko te roia o te kaitakaro a Barry Roux (i whakaahuatia) i tohe ko nga kaitohutohu kua 'he' i whakaaetia kia tono ki a...
Ka whakakahoretia e te kaiwhakawa te tono a te kaitakaro ki te whakahe i te tono a te hunga whakapae. E rima tau a Pistorius e mauheretia ana mō te kohuru i tana hoa wahine a Reeva Steenkamp. Kua whakaritea kia arotakehia tana whakawakanga e te rōpū kaiwhakawa o te Kooti Runga Rawa.
