Anders Behring Breivik, the man convicted of the massacre in Oslo, Norway that cost the lives of 77 people last year, was sentenced to 21 years in prison today, reports Businessweek:
The question of how to deal with Breivik has left Norwegians torn as they weigh the need for punishment against the ideals of a welfare model in which rehabilitation is the ultimate goal. While the maximum jail sentence in Norway is 21 years, the term can be extended by five years at a time if an inmate is still deemed a danger to society.
