I think their sentences... for anything... max out at 20-something years as well. In the case of that domestic terrorist in Norway who shot up a bunch of people, I heard that after the 20-something years his time in prison is going to be "reviewed" and they can keep him there (which they probably will, if not for posterity over anything)... but still. I remember reading in VICE (before the website... before the internet was big actually... the print mag they used to give out for free) some article about a Norweign Death Metal band singer who burnt down a bunch of churches and killed some people. He was eating well in prison and they even gave him keyboards and music equipment so he can keep on making music in there
We're too entrenched in capitalism and having our criminal justice system (not just jails but police force, lawyers, contractors for jails, etc...) being a pretty big spoke in our economic wheel. shyt like this will never, ever happen here. if anything it'll unfortunately get worse than it already is
