Will Oscar regain his good reputation back?


Oscar Pistorius known as the “blade runner” he is a south African Olympic and Paralympic runner who was once adored by millions around the world, once admired by every young and upcoming athlete. He was one of the most in demand sport personality and every brand and sponsors such as Nike, m-net and oarkley wanted him for advertising and PR campaign, until he murdered his model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on 14 February 2013.

The trial of Osca Pistorus started on 3 march 2014 at Pretoria high court, the case is still ongoing and it is handled by judge president Dunstan Mlambo. His final verdict is on 11 September 2014.Oscar pleads not guilty to all charges of murder against him, so basically he is deining that he killed Reeva on purpose, he argues that the night he killed Reeva it was a mistake because he thought that it was an intruder and he did not mean to kill Reeva. During the trial Oscar was found that he has a psychological problem and he had to be tested for mental issues at weskoppies psychiatric hospital.  Well despite the murder charges that the Paralympic gold medalist is facing, he has lost all his fans, sponsors and most importantly his reputation and credibility. I believe that we all know that it takes time and sometimes years to build credibility and it takes a second to ruin it. So do you think that it will be hard or easy for Oscar Pistorius to regain the love and good reputation he once had?

  3. I think he is going to lose his reputation because he used to be a man who held the world in his feet. And everyone was disappointed at him after being involved in such a thing.

    1. indeed I also don't think he will ever gain his reputation back, because I mean what he did was really sad and people obvious do not want to associate themselves with someone who has a bad reputation.

  4. i personally think that Oscar can regain his reputation back only if he can get the best PR team to build his personal brand from scrash.

  5. this Oscar issue really damaged his reputation but i think that he can regain his reputation back only after time because it will take time for people to forget what he did, but i think he will gain his reputation back.

  6. i dont think Oscar will ever regain his reputation back because he is guilty for killing Reeva, why would people want to work with a murder agin. the is no such thing that he killed Reeva by mistake, he new what he was doing that night, he should just go to jail thats all.
