Oscar Pistorius is up for parole consideration after serving more than half of his 13-year sentence for the 2013 shooting death of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. The South African parole board is hearing submissions from both Pistorius and the Steenkamp family, with the latter opposing an early release. June Steenkamp, Reeva's mother, arrived at the hearing on Friday and the parole board will consider Pistorius' conduct and disciplinary record, training courses, and mental and physical state to assess whether he poses a threat to public safety.
