One could hope that someone in the General Population takes exception to his brand of crazy and decides to expedite Breivik's appeal to The Higher Judge.

That's about three months and eight days per killing.

What kind of prisons do they have in Norway? My only experience is the TV show Lillyhammer where they looked pretty nice. But I don't know if that is just low security and my ignorance is so vast on this subject, where is Nadin when one needs her expertise?

House arrest ? Can't be too harsh on the frail criminals.

It's effectively a life sentence.  They don't release prisoners after there sentence in Norway, unless they're no longer deemed a threat to society.

Very interesting video on Bastoey prison in Norway.  Honestly, it is nice enough that I could probably live there happily.

So before people bitch about the (in)justice system in this country, look at Norway.

He's never going to be set free, which is good. Under a better prepared justice system, he'd be given the death penalty.

First, Norway doesn't have the DP.  Second, 21 years in a country club prison ain't exactly like doing a stint at San Quentin.
