Oscar Pistorius, who was convicted of culpable homicide after killing his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, is slated to receive the fastest parole I think we’ve ever seen.
Pistorius will be released on parole August 21 after serving 10 months of a five-year sentence, according to Adam Withnall of the Independent.
“He’s behaving himself very well,” Zach Modise, the South African correctional services’ national commissioner, said in June, while noting that Pistorius wouldn’t serve his full sentence.
It’s still possible that Pistorius could be convicted of murder, as prosecutors are attempting to appeal the case to the South African Supreme Court.
