Oscar Pistorius

When discussing celebrities who have experienced a dramatic downfall, the case of Oscar Pistorius looms large. The South African athlete, renowned for his achievements in both the Olympics and Paralympics, was the first person with a disability to secure a non-disabled track medal.

Unfortunately, just one year following his remarkable performance at the 2012 Summer Olympics, Pistorius found himself at the center of a tragic incident. He fatally shot his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, which sparked intense media attention and dominated headlines worldwide. Subsequently, the former athlete faced a highly publicized court case, culminating in a 15-year prison sentence.
