Meanwhile - in Norway's Jail
Scandinavian countries are quite liberal.
I guess it works for them...
I guess it works for them...
Kristine Lowe and Charlotte Henley report in the U.K. Daily Mail:
"Last year Anders Breivik killed 77 people; now it's room service, his own suite and Japanese meditation.
Breivik enjoys a ‘suite’ of three adjoining 86 sq ft cells. One is a bedroom, one the gym and the third has a computer – without internet access – and serves as a study.
Randi Rosenqvist, a court psychiatrist who has assessed Breivik’s mental health, has said he has compared his time in prison with being in ‘kindergarten’.
Indeed, the leniency with which he is being treated has outraged some in Norway but is, in fact, entirely in keeping with the country’s penal system, one of the most ‘progressive’ in Europe. The focus is on rehabilitation rather than punishment."
