For the first time in Norwegian history, a person under 18 to be sentenced to custody. It became clear when the prosecution presented its procedure for Asker and Bærum District Court, where a 15 year old girl from the area sits on charges of premeditated murder of Anna Kristin Gillebo Backlund under very stringent conditions.
– Consideration the girl’s best is the best reason to impose her perpetual punishment. The worst that can happen NN (defendant journ.anm.) Is that she is doing something similar again, said prosecutor Erik Forde during their procedure.
The prosecution Thursday, the claim that 15- old sentenced to custody for ten years, with a minimum sentence of six years. The girl has admitted killing but denies that it was planned.
– Absolutely extraordinary case
The penalty for people who were under 18 at the time of the offense is 15 years. They also can not be sentenced to custody unless there are “absolutely extraordinary circumstances.”
– In our view, this matter quite extraordinary case. Ensuring it is a 15 year old girl in the dock is in itself extraordinary, he pointed out.
If the court judges the girl in line with the prosecutor’s contention she will be the first person under 18 who are sentenced to detention in Norwegian legal history.
Hazardous
Forde rattled off several reasons weigh against the detention of children: They are not labeled as hazardous, it hampers the way back to the community and it is assumed that the takes a maturing from the age of 15 and into the early twenties. Prosecutors believe none of the arguments relevant to the case.
– There are not any forvaringsdom as pistons girl as dangerous. NN was considered dangerous even then she was admitted to the institution in February 2012. Unfortunately, it will because of the girl’s personality nor take any general maturation. She will unfortunately have difficulty getting back to a functional life for the same reason, said Forde.
He added that the court with certainty that there is repetition danger. The same thought just psychiatrists who testified Tuesday.
