The are not done with him yet...........
PRETORIA (Reuters) - South African prosecutors on Wednesday won their bid to appeal the culpable homicide verdict handed down to Olympic and Paralympic athlete Oscar Pistorius for killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp and will now seek a murder conviction.
During the seven-month trial, the state failed to convince Judge Thokozile Masipa, 67, of Pistorius' intent to kill when he fired, leading to his conviction for negligent killing - culpable homicide - and a five-year jail term in October.
State prosecutor Gerrie Nel said in his application to appeal on Tuesday that the judgment was "shockingly inappropriate" and requested permission to seek a murder conviction, which would carry a minimum 15 year jail term.
Nel argued that even if Pistorius did not know Steenkamp was behind the door when he fired, the athlete showed intent to kill whoever was in the small toilet cubicle.
