CENTURION, South Africa (AP) — The mother of Oscar Pistorius’ slain girlfriend will attend the double-amputee Olympian’s murder trial next month to get “closure,” Reeva Steenkamp’s family said Tuesday as the anniversary of the shooting death that shocked millions and put a national hero in the dock approaches.

“June and other family members will be at the trial in Pretoria,” Steenkamp’s parents, Barry and June, said in a statement released through the family lawyers. “All we are looking for is closure and to know that our daughter did not suffer on that tragic Valentine’s Day.”
