Does anyone have updates on the trial?They were supposed to have closing arguments today. Did Oscar weep or throw up?

I haven't been following it, but I am anxious to hear what the verdict will be.

Source: AP (Excerpt of article) --

Judge Thokozile Masipa made the announcement after the prosecution and defense ended their final arguments. Masipa will decide with the help of two legal assistants if the double-amputee athlete faces prison for killing Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day last year in his home.

If found guilty of premeditated murder, Pistorius could face 25 years and up to life in prison.

It just defies all logic of why he fired into the bathroom when the door was shut without first finding out where his girlfriend was. Could it possibly be because of his disability and always feeling afraid as he stated? Are polygraph tests illegal there? I'd love to know if he passed one.
