PRETORIA, South Africa - Oscar Pistorius was taken away in a police van with barred windows Tuesday to start serving a five-year prison sentence for killing girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Paul Richardson Redskins Jersey .Delivering her sentence, Judge Thokozile Masipa cited the gross negligence the double-amputee Olympic runner showed when he shot Steenkamp multiple times through a toilet cubicle door in his home.Pistorius, who cried and retched during his murder trial, was unemotional as he stood to hear his sentence. His prison term begins immediately and he was led by police down a flight of stairs to holding cells before leaving the courthouse in the armoured vehicle.The world-famous runner later arrived at the nearby Kgosi Mampuru II prison in the South African capital, a facility that has had problems with violence and overcrowding and where during the years of apartheid death row inmates were executed before capital punishment was outlawed with the advent of democracy. Despite the prisons reported problems, authorities have said Pistorius would be held away from the general prison population because of his disability and high profile — possibly in a hospital wing or a high-security section.Pistorius could be released after 10 months to serve the remainder under house arrest, according to legal experts. Masipa last month convicted Pistorius of culpable homicide, or negligent killing, but acquitted him of murder after he testified he mistook Steenkamp for a nighttime intruder.Steenkamps parents were in court to hear the sentence and the dead models mother, June, said justice had been done. A close friend of Steenkamp, Gina Myers, said: I really dont think any of us will heal anytime soon ... there will always be questions.Pistorius uncle, Arnold Pistorius, appealed to reporters to give the family privacy after what he called 20 months of relentless public trial. He criticized prosecutors for pursuing a premeditated murder charge against Pistorius, and said they decided to inflict as much collateral damage as they could. He said Pistorius family accepted the sentence.Oscar will embrace this opportunity to pay back to society, Arnold Pistorius said.Judge Masipa earlier described the sentencing as a balancing act between retribution and clemency.I am of the view that a non-custodial sentence would send a wrong message to the community, Masipa said, taking just over an hour to summarize parts of the case and explain why she reached her decision. On the other hand, a long sentence would not be appropriate either as it would lack the element of mercy.Masipa asked Pistorius to stand as she delivered the sentence, and he faced her with his hands clasped in front of him. Pistorius was then led away, stopping briefly to grip the hands of his uncle and other family members as he headed to prison.Prosecutors said they are considering whether to appeal the sentence, where Pistorius, 27, could serve less than a year in jail for killing his 29-year-old girlfriend. They have 14 days to apply for permission to appeal.Nathi Mncube, the prosecution spokesman, said his office was disappointed in the culpable homicide conviction and had not yet decided whether to appeal. He said that there was an appetite to appeal but prosecutors would review their options.We are satisfied with the fact that he will be serving some time in prison, Mncube said.Masipa had a wide range of options available to her because South Africa does not have a minimum sentence for culpable homicide, which is comparable to manslaughter. Pistorius, a once-inspiring athlete, known as the Blade Runner because he competed on carbon-fiber blades, was the first amputee to run at the Olympics in 2012. He had faced up to 15 years in jail. He also could have received a completely suspended sentence or house arrest.The sentence raised questions over if Pistorius, a multiple Paralympic champion, would ever return to the career that made him famous. The International Paralympic Committee said he would not be eligible to run during his five-year sentence, ruling him out of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympics.Pistorius must serve one-sixth of his sentence in prison — 10 months — before he is eligible to be moved to house arrest, said Marius du Toit, a legal analyst and criminal defence lawyer.Its an appropriate sentence, du Toit said.As Pistorius left in the police van, a crowd gathered around the vehicle, with some whistling, shouting and banging on the caged windows.___Imray reported from Stellenbosch, South Africa.

New Senators coach Dave Cameron earned his first win with goals from Mika Zibanejad and David Legwand, along with 29 saves by Robin Lehner. Ottawa has won two of its last three games. Tuukka Rask also made 29 saves, including two in overtime, but it wasnt enough for the Bruins, who have lost five out of their last six. Craig Cunningham scored his first NHL goal, and Loui Eriksson tallied the other Boston goal. Ottawa scored the only third period goal of the game on its power play to even the score at two. Kyle Turris blast from the point caromed off teammate Mark Stone, and Legwand knocked the loose puck into the net to score at 4:17. In overtime with the shootout looming in one minute, each team got a great chance to end the game. Ryans deke-to-backhand shot was stopped by Rask, and the Bruins went the other way on an odd-man rush but didnt score. In the third round of the shootout with the teams tied at one goal each, Lehner made a sprawling save to deny Patrice Bergerons bid, and Ryan beat Rask by going to his forehand for the game-winner. Daves done a good job, said Legwand. We wanted to get that win for him, get that monkey off his back.

Zdeno Charas clearing attempt took a fortunate bounce off Turris skate into the neutral zone, and Cunningham chased the puck down and fired a slap shot past Lehner for his first NHL goal and the 1-0 lead at 11:45. Z made a good play, kind of chipped it out of the zone, said Cunningham. I think their d-men kind of got a little flat-footed, I took off, buried my head and tried to get it on net. Luckily it went in. The Senators tied the game not even three minutes into the middle period. Mike Hoffmans pass through the neutral zone helped Zibanejad split the Bruins defense, and after faking a slap shot, Zibanejad slid the puck by Rask for the equalizer. Eriksson retook the lead for Boston just past the halfway point of the second period. After spinning away from a defender, he made a beeline to the net, got a pass between an Ottawa defenders legs from Kevan Miller and beat Lehner for his fifth goal of the season.
