Wrapping up five days of relentless cross-examination of Oscar Pistorius at his murder trial, the chief prosecutor insisted Tuesday that the Olympic runner intentionally shot his girlfriend to death after they argued before dawn on Valentine's Day last year. Prosecutor Gerrie Nel said he had no further questions after presenting the prosecution's case that Pistorius is lying in his account of mistakenly shooting Reeva Steenkamp through a toilet cubicle door. In the adjournment after his cross-examination, Pistorius rubbed his eyes and briefly sank his head into the shoulder of a man sitting with his family. Throughout the grueling questioning, Nel accused Pistorius of ''tailoring'' evidence and ''concocting'' a story that he shot out of fear of an intruder in the toilet cubicle in his bathroom in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14, 2013.
