Sword and Scale Episode 10

Any untimely death is a tragedy... but when the victim is young and beautiful, the whole thing seems to be much worse. Unfortunately, there are two high-profile cases in the news this week that fit this familiar mold. In 2011, Holly Bobo was abducted from her home and after three years the case had grown stale, until shocking news this week which suggest the perpetrator was someone that the entire community knew. Next we travel to the crime-laden land of South Africa, to cover the trial of Oscar Pistorius, who shot his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in his home on Valentines Day.
