Oscar Pistorius sobbed on the witness stand today while reading out a Valentine's Day card from his girlfriend that he was due to open on the day he killed her.
Reeva Steenkamp gave the Paralympian the card and a wrapped picture frame with photographs of the pair in loving poses on the evening of February 13 last year, hours before he gunned her down.
Under questioning from his defence lawyer at the end of a gruelling seven-day stint in the box, the athlete was asked to read out the front of the card and the handwritten message inside.
Choking back tears, he said: 'Roses are red, violets are blue. I think today is a good day to tell you that... I love you'.
He said the envelope said 'Ozzie' with 'some hearts and a squiggle' while the card was signed 'Reeves' with a smiley face and three kisses.
