that guy hasn't killed anyone else, so I dunno what point you're trying to make

17 years on prison with no weird porn, nazi snuff parties, or hookups with women who get turned on by murder roleplay might be just what he needs to be found sane again. or maybe not, in which case he'll be kept locked away.

also it was less about the French system than international justice and incompatible courts in general. it got turned into a media circus by Japan so the French said "gently caress this, you can deal with him".

I sincerely doubt he will ever see the outside of the cell, but it's a founding notion of our justice system that literally anyone can be rehabilitated. Giving someone like Madsen or Breivik a fair trial and a theoretical road to redemption does a lot to give Scandinavians faith in their respective justice systems, even if they're still flawed on a lot of the lower rungs of criminality.

Probably not. He can try, but Procesbevillingsnævnet decides what cases can go to the supreme court, and it is usually only cases where there is a principle at stake.

Yeah, his only real chance of getting it through to Supreme Court is if he argues that getting life for just one murder is unprecedented.

And well, I don't believe in his chances.

Submarine Psycho Madsen appealed the sentencing, not the verdict; ie. he is hoping for a finite term instead of the sentence of life (life convicts serve on average 17 years) + forvaring that he got. The supreme court appeal is scheduled for September 5, 12, & 14 this year.

Google translation of Danish wikipedia "Forvaring" with some corrections:


It's basically "storage", putting him a place where he can't hurt anyone again until such a time where he might be deemed harmless.

Since it was discussed that it is similar to the one we have in Finland, the guy is locked up in a prison/mental asylum until he is clinically a vegetable or confined to a bed rest for the rest of his short life left. So life in prison, literally.

Bonus: You may or may not be considered a person while in forced custody for the criminally insane; there is a good chance that the nation will be your custodian and sole guardian, and you will have no legal rights whatsoever, besides some UN-mandated stuff.

Normally here, even the prisoners get to vote in the elections and request some services or other stuff.

I'm fairly sure those sentenced to forvaring don't lose their legal personhood. In crimincal cases it is afaik only done to the non compos mentis ("of unsound mind", for whom there is a separate "anbringelse"/placement sentence that is basically forvaring but in a mental hospital instead of a special prison).

In any case, it entails losing your right to vote in national elections but retaining your right to vote locally, and someone will be your appointed guardian in financial matters. I think it's mostly done in cases of senile dementia, profound mental retardation, and severe psychosis.

Absolutely not. That guy fell through a bureaucratic crack along international, inter-jurisdictional administration lines. Unless wacky murder Madsen had surreptitiously established a tiny, secret, undisclosed but also UN recognized underwater nation with a case for extradition prior, there's zero domain confusion or contention about the legitimacy of the Danish state authority in the criminal trial, sentencing and incarceration.

Ugeskrift for Læger (Danish Weekly Journal of Medicine) has a interview with the head of the autopsies you know the case is hosed when that word is pluralized :( of Wall. She keeps it very professional in the interview, but it appears to have been a challenging autopsy due to the amount of time the remains spent in the water, and the destructive nature of the investigations.

Available in Bork here.

It's been about a year. The appeal case is in about a month.

I wasn't planning on writing any more in this thread but a couple of things came up.

Three days ago, PM's Facebook profile suddenly resurfaced. It had been de-activated and apparently vanished within the first two weeks of the murder. The de-activation prevented his friends and acquaintances from updating their friend status until now. Within the first few hours the friend count adjusted southwards and is currently somewhere below 400. It used to be higher.

A delegated, anonymous proxy re-activated his account and posted the following:


Peter has no email or internet but has access to postal mail. He is no doubt bored and apparently want some pen pals.

So now everyone knows which prison he's stashed in. This was not generally known prior. Storstrøm Fængsel is a brand new high security prison built in the Jutland desolate godforsaken countryside, and authorities have been mum on the matter. Most people assumed he would go to one of the older prisons for harder cases.

And today it is revealed that Peter was assaulted by a fellow inmate. He was briefly hospitalized with facial injuries.. This happened on Wednesday, the day after his FB proxy post.

Who knew social media for murderers was so complicated.

They're talking about damages.

He was sentenced to pay 120k dkk to Wall's boyfriend, and 33k dkk to the Danish coastguard (for putting out a marker buoy during the recovery of the sunken submarine).

Cheapskate-Madsen contests the former, but not the latter.

Also, the parents of Wall and the boyfriend each asked for 150k in damages but the lower court rejected the parents' claim entirely as Wall was no longer living at home.

Isn't he broke as gently caress and more or less bankrupt anyway? What good are damage awards if the guy is broke and also going to be in jail forever and thus unlikely to be able to earn and pay it off.

Inmates can earn about 10DKK/hour doing some light production, so he could in theory pay off the 150k in a bit more than 5 years.

Inmates have to work/go to school 37 hrs per week, both of which are paid (albeit a measy amount). They also get an allowance to buy food & clothes etc. The intent is for their stay to be similar to the outside world.

In total it's not very much though & it would take years to save up 100k.

As for why? Why not?
