Oscar Pistorius' former neighbor described him as "broken" and "desperate" moments after Pistorius shot dead his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, South Africa's High Court in Pretoria in on Monday as the athlete's murder trial continued.
Johan Stander told the court Pistorius asked him to come over to his house him early on Valentine's Day last year, saying he'd shot Steenkamp.
Stander daughter, Carice Viljoen, took the sand after her father. As Reuters reports, "The testimony from both painted a picture of Pistorius as a broken man in the immediate aftermath of the killing. Johan Stander said Pistorius was 'torn apart, broken, desperate, pleading' as he prayed for Steenkamp to stay alive.
"Earlier, he described the telephone call he received in the middle of the night from a distressed Pistorius telling him he had killed Steenkamp by mistake.
"'Oom (Uncle) Johan, please, please come to my house. I shot Reeva. I thought she was an intruder. Please, please come quickly,' he quoted Pistorius as telling him.
"If convicted of murder, Pistorius faces life in prison. The trial, which was adjourned on April 17 to allow prosecutors to deal with other cases on their books, has drawn huge interest both in South Africa and abroad. "
