Oscar Pistorius trial: 'I don't have to look at a picture, I was there' image

Oscar Pistorius became distraught Wednesday at his murder trial when prosecution pressed him to look at a graphic image of Reeva Steenkamp's bloodied head.

In the video above, you can hear the testimony, which became emotional after prosecutor Gerrie Nel told Pistorius "it's time that you look at" the image.

"I remember," Pistorius said. "I will not look at a picture where I'm tormented by what I saw and felt that night. As I picked Reeva up, my fingers touched her head. I remember. I don't have to look at a picture, I was there."
