O.J. In Pretoria?

As most of you know, Oscar Pistorius killed his girlfriend.   His explanation — that he fired 4 shots though a closed bathroom door because he thought there was in intruder behind it — is both 1)implausible in the extreme (sure, whenever I hear someone in a bathroom with the door closed in a house I share with someone, I just assume it’s an intruder stealing my toenail clippers and toilet bowl cleaner, and start firing bullets) and 2)not particularly exculpatory even if true (when you make no effort to ascertain the person you’re shooting at isn’t your partner and it turns out to be your partner, that you thought it was an intruder with no basis at best would seem to make it second rather than first degree murder.)

And, yet, because the investigation appears to have been heavily botched by a lead investigator who is “facing seven charges of attempted murder himself,” he may well get away with it.
