Shamed athlete Oscar Pistorius has been released on bail despite being found guilty of the manslaughter of his girlfriend. Earlier, the Paralympian stood impassively in the dock, his hands folded in front of him, as the judge convicted him of culpable homicide after he shot Reeva Steenkamp dead at his home. He could now face a prison term of up to 15 years, but equally may walk free from court with a suspended term when he is sentenced at a later date.
