Judge: Norway terror suspect is not insane

In the first public appearance since his mass murder spree on an island in Norway Anders Breivik has made his first public appearance. He was summoned to court to decide if he would remain in jail until his official court date later on. It was ruled he should stay in jail. The criminal was ruled sane, and he admitted to the bombings that killed 8 people and the shootings that killed 69 people, most of which were children. However Breivik pleaded not guilty. When attempting to speak and read from a note he had written for court he was stopped several times by the judge, who explained this was not the venue in which Breivik had any right to explain himself. The court room was packed with hundreds of people, some of which were parents of the children murdered on the Norwegian island. The parents were seeking any explanation to help them understand how this could happen. Breivik is a Christian extremist who is critical of Muslim immigration and European liberalism.
