Editor's note: Oscar Pistorius' full affidavit explaining his version of events (which the poster is referencing) is

History of a guy very worried about home security...by previous article where he takes the journalists shooting, and talks about false alarm the previous night.
1. Alcohol and/Ambien before bed.
2. Legs off...apparently he could walk on his stumps?
3. He awakes, groggy / disoriented, goes to close balcony screen door.
4. Hears a noise, over reacts...as he has already been know to react fast on home security with his gune.
5. He gets low and crawls to get gun under bed.
6. Doesn't notice girlfriend in bed. Okay so here is where it gets twisty...my currently girlfriend is so think and skinny, AND sleeps on her stomach, without having her head on the pillow. There have been many times I've had to pat over on her side of the bed to see if she is there...granted this is mostly winter with a down comforter involved...just saying in a large bed if you are the type to sleepover in your own little zone...it possible, possible that he would have noticed her when getting out of bed or heading under his side of the bed to get his gun.
None of us knows how each person in SA feels about home security, we do know that Oscar was either a gun nut, or took it very seriously. Possibly because of his not always having his legs on, he took it more seriously / freaked out.
Or was influenced by tail end of alcohol, or Ambien in his blood.
He hears noise in bathroom and thinks intruder has heard him and has locked himself in the bathroom. And still freaked, or under the influence shoots through the door.
7. Innocent reason for why the bathroom door is locked:
Most of the women I have dated have seen no reason to lock the bathroom door when it is just us in the house. I've dated a few women who had a strict lock the door policy when they went to the bathroom, considered it private. Keep the mystery alive. I know some of you are okay dropping a deuce in front of each other...there are some women who are just never going to not lock the door in case of dropping a deuce. That's my current girlfriend, so I totally get why the door could have been locked.
8. Oscars a guy who is probably used to hearing his gun fire...although he probably uses ear protection at the range. If he was in a rage, roid, or other wise, that might have shaken him out of it.
9. Returns to bedroom and finds Steena is not in bed. Panics, puts everyday prosthetic legs on, and goes and tries to kick door down. No luck, goes and gets cricket bat to break door open with.
Made whatever calls he made for help and took her down stairs to away help.
As we've seen from the numerous Darwin awards stories and what not sometimes the craziest stories turn out to be innocent and true.
.....
That said, there are a lot of questions to be answered.
1. Neighbors hearing arguments earlier in the evening - to be confirmed.
2. Did he really call for help out the balcony? Who heard what?
3. What's on her iPad, flirty VD message from hunky rugby player -- that set Oscar off?
Guilty or innocent, nothing is going to bring this lovely young woman back, nor undo the damage to her family and friends.
Oscars life, guilty or innocent, is ruined. He look back fondly at the days he was only considered an azzhole for accusing another paralymic athlete of cheating.
