This is only a theory: With regard to Oscar Pistorius: his relationship with Reevaluate Steenkamp, I understand, was relatively new, The night of the tragic event Reeva had brought her overnight bag to stay. Oscar may have been used to staying/sleeping alone if Reeva did not stay over that often. This being the case, if Oscar heard a noise at the window his first reaction may have been intense fear – forgetting or not remembering that Reeva was staying over.
I can't imagine a intruder would lock themselves in a bathroom, instead of running out. Also, if I locked the door, in the bathroom, there would be a reason for that: such as afraid that my crazy, threatening boyfriend was going to hurt me. Let's hope justice is for the beautiful victim.
