Former Paralympic runner Oscar Pistorius may be eligible for
parole after serving half of his murder sentence.
According to court documents,
Pistorius was sentenced to 13 years and five
months in prison for killing his then girlfriend,
Reeva Steenkamp in February of 2013.
Pistorius shot Steenkamp through a bathroom door of his home in South Africa.
Pistorius was reportedly eligible for parole in
March under South African law but was
denied early release over a miscalculation of when he began serving his sentence.
The former Paralympian plans to appeal with the Constitutional Court
in South Africa to get a new parole hearing.
