Lawyer: Norway terror suspect will never walk free


OSLO, Norway (AP) — The defense lawyer for the man who confessed to the mass killings of government workers and Labor Party youth in Norway told The Associated Press today that there’s no way his client will walk free, saying Anders Behring Breivik’s rampage was absurd and horrible and he’s likely insane. Geir Lippestad said at his first news conference that he considered the case for 10 or 12 hours before finally agreeing to take it because he felt the tragedy underscored the need to safeguard democratic traditions, like the right to defense counsel.
