Anders Brievik Trial

Anders Behring Brievik, the notorious mass murderer who claims responsibility for the 77 deaths in twin terrorist attacks in July 2011 is currently on trial in Norway for his crimes. Anders is responsible for a road side bomb infront of the Norweigian parliament building that killed 8 people and injured dozens more. Anders is also responsible for the shooting on Utoya island. A Youth group movement was on the island in the summer of 2011. Anders, dressed like a police officer took a boat to the island and using a Ruger mini rifle proceeded to hunt down and kill 69 children, young teens and several adults. He would approach people who heard gunshots and claim to be a police officer to help and once he earned their trust he would kill them. It took 90 minutes for SWAT to respond to the scene where Anders surrendered without fight. Almost a year later Anders is now on trial for the crimes.In an emotional day of trial, he recollects the voices in his head telling him to not do this. Anders also explains how he methodically executed people of the Youth Labor movement. By the end of the trial it is expected that anders will receive the maximum sentence in Norway of 21 years- because the country does not carry life in prison laws or death penalties. Anders tried to plead insanity but after psychological testing it was found he was sane and fit for trial and punishment.

Anders is a Christain who had massive fears about Norway hiding a muslim invasion and he decided to take the law into his own hands and kill the "muslims" and also decided he was going to try and decapitate the former 2008 Norweigian Prime Minister on Utoya island as a message to everyone in the Norweigian Government. Anders also had plans to destroy two more buildings with car bombings. He wanted to attack the Norway government headquarters, and also attack another youth headquarters. Both attempts failed, Anders stated if he was to have succesfully blown up both buildings he would not have went to the island and killed all the innocent people. But because the plan had failed he said he had to "make a point" and take to the island and kill everyone. Anders also stated if norwegian media had not blocked out images of muslim attacks in local areas just for the sake of re-electing the prime minister he would not have contemplated as much destruction.
