Text Messages by Reeva Steenkamp Played in Court- 'Oscar i am scared of you'

It has been revealed in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial that girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp sent text messages to the athlete admitting she was scared of the South African track star.  The text messages were sent less than three weeks before he shot her dead, a police expert told his murder trial today.

Pistorius was in tears as the messages were read aloud in the Pretoria court, one of the messages read: 'I'm scared of you sometimes and how you snap at me,' and 'I can’t be attacked by outsider for dating u and be attacked by you the person I deserve protection from.' The couple argued about what she alleged was the athlete's short temper and jealousy, police Capt. Francois Moller testified, citing text messages he extracted from cell phones.

Another message sent by Steenkamp read: 'We are living in a double standard relationship. Every five seconds I hear about how you dated another chick. You really have dated a lot of people yet you get upset if I mention one funny story with a long term boyfriend.' another text read: ‘I was upset you that you just left me after we got food to go talk to a guy and I was standing right behind you watching you touch his arm and ignore me and when I spoke up you introduced me which you could’ve done but when I left you just kept on chatting to him when clearly I was upset.'

The trial continues.
