Seems like a graphic way to show how upset you are and gain sympathy. Some people with eating disorders are easily able to induce vomiting. Too little too late.

What burglar goes into the bathroom and shuts the door??? Heaven only knows what his problem is.

The news reported he vomited repeatedly in court today when a witness (the pathologist who examined her body) described the condition of Reeva's body and blood soaked clothes.

I think it's fear of being convicted. Maybe he is starting to see, as the evidence is presented, how unbelievable his story really is.

I had planned to watch this trial, thought it would be interesting. It isn't.

That question has been on my mind all along also. I can't recall ever hearing of a break-in where the bad guy went into the bathroom and closed the door. Not a very bright thing to do. Rather implausible.

Very implausible! Since this is a bench trial (no jury), I have to laugh at Oscar's antics...he can't force out any tears, he vomits, what a Drama Queen he is! The judge isn't gonna "buy it"...

I agree. Also, since he's claiming that he thought it was a burglar, didn't he happen to notice that Reeva was not in bed next to him? Where did he think she was? He said he was supposedly protecting Reeva, yet she wasn't in the bed. Didn't he think it wise to confirm her whereabouts before firing a gun through a wooden door at someone that he couldn't see?

I think you may be right. He is not concerned about what he did to her, only about what they may do to him.

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

Why was his girlfriend in the bathroom with the door locked? Obviously trying to get away from him.

There are 2 choices here. Either he's stupid (Who starts shooting at supposed burglar through a wall when youre not sure who it is and who doesn't check where your mate is first?), or he is lying and they had a fight and he shot her. I think the fight/he shot her is the real truth because I too heard his girlfriend had met her ex days before. However I am not keeping up with this case much, I just know what I hear bits and pieces of. (I wont get involved in any more murder cases since KC, that was enough!)
