Former Olympic and Paralympic runner Oscar Pistorius was denied parole and will have to stay in prison at least another 16 months.
Former Olympic runner Oscar Pistorius was denied parole Friday and will have to stay in prison at least another year and four months after it was decided that he had not served the "minimum detention period" required to be released following his murder conviction for the 2013 killing of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
The result was a surprise but there has been legal wrangling over when Pistorius should be eligible for parole because of the series of appeals in his case. He was initially convicted of culpable homicide, a charge comparable to manslaughter, in 2014 but the case went through a number of appeals before Pistorius was finally sentenced to 13 years and five months in prison for murder in 2017.
