00:00 What I'd like to read to you today, as a representative of June Steenkamp, is her victim impact statement.
00:11 At the time of writing this victim impact statement, my memories go back to when my
00:17 beautiful daughter, Reva Rebecca Steenkamp, was born.
00:21 From a young age, she became a skillful equestrian and liked nothing better than helping Barry,
00:31 who managed stables and trained racehorses.
00:37 From a very young age, she had the ability to light up a room with her presence.
00:45 When she fell off a horse at the age of 20 and had to spend months recovering, she decided
00:54 to become a model and use her public profile to garner support for victims of domestic
01:02 abuse and rape.
