"At a time like this, when people are grieving, I think it's hard to keep a clear mind on anything," Steenkamp said. "And with the added pressure and the media coverage and the interest, you know, from the world looking into this story, it's a rather unnatural situation. So, I suppose I would agree with everyone is flipping from one side to the other. We just don't know. You know, all that we want is we want to know what the truth is, and I think that's what everyone else would like as well. You know, to be able to make something of this -- to be able to deal with this and have something positive come out of this."
Steenkamp said the worst is over.
"We are all holding up very well considering the circumstances. We've now had just about a week to let things sink in. And we've had a very busy few days as well," he said. "I feel like we have done the most difficult thing for us as a family, so far, in viewing my sister's body, and then attending her memorial yesterday. We're doing OK."
