Oscar Pistorius is a broken man

Oscar Pistorius is a broken man - Psychologist

Oscar Pistorius was convicted of murder at the end of last year for the 2013 murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

He faces a jail term of at least 15 years, but his sentence can be reduced due to time already spent in prison and mitigating factors.

Psychologist Jonathan Scholtz told the court:

"Since the offence he has developed a serious psychiatric condition which has become worse over the past two years - major depression and post-traumatic stress disorder."

"One would describe him as broken. In my opinion his current condition warrants hospitalization," Scholtz told the hearing that was attended by Steenkamp's mother.

"Since 2013, he becomes traumatized when he hears the sound of gunfire," Scholtz said. "He never wants to touch a firearm again."
