ROMANS: The Oscar Pistorius saga coming to a dramatic conclusion in a South Africa courtroom right now. This is the scene live at this moment in a courtroom where a judge is sentencing the Paralympic gold medalist -- he is known as the blade runner -- for the murder of his girlfriend three years ago. Let's get right to CNN international correspondent David McKenzie live in Pretoria for the very latest. Good morning, David.</s>DAVID MCKENZIE, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, Christine. Yes, this legal saga and soap opera has gripped South Africa and the world for several years now. It could be coming to its final act. And the same judge who was there for the lengthy trial is now reading out his sentencing judgment. It appears she is saying mitigating circumstances aggravating ones. In other words, she has bought some of the argument of the defense in last month's sentencing hearings. We saw dramatic moments of Oscar Pistorius coming up in front of the court without this prosthetic legs to show his vulnerability. And also emotional testimony from the father of Reeva Steenkamp, the model girlfriend he shot on Valentine's Day in 2013. He said their family has been devastated and will not recover. And certainly it seems now that in the coming hours, it could be the moment that Pistorius leaves his court behind me and heads straight to prison, though there is the option for him to continue with a form of house arrest. We just wouldn't know until the judge has finished the final sentencing.</s>ROMANS: All right. David McKenzie for us in Pretoria. Keep us up to date if there are any developments there inside that courtroom. Thank you.</s>HOWELL: Donald Trump attacking Hillary Clinton and the FBI, blaming a rigged system and accusing the Clintons of bribery after no charges are recommended in Clinton's email controversy.
