Oscar Pistorius, the former Paralympian who was convicted of murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in 2013, has been granted parole, effective from January 5, 2024, after nearly a decade in prison. South African prosecutors admitted a counting error in his time served, leading to a new chance at parole. The mother of the murdered girlfriend did not oppose his parole, but her brother made a last-ditch plea to keep Pistorius behind bars. During his time in prison, Pistorius reportedly became a spiritual leader and faced physical altercations with inmates. There are speculations about his potential return to athletics following his release. Reeva Steenkamp's mother expressed her belief that Pistorius is not rehabilitated and lacks proper remorse. Pistorius will undergo therapy for anger and gender-based violence upon his release.
