Breivik trial: Shoe thrown at Norway mass killer
Source: BBC
A brother of one of those killed by Anders Behring Breivik has thrown a shoe at the defendant, interrupting his trial in the Norwegian capital Oslo.
"You killed my brother! Go to hell!" the relative screamed in the courtroom.
The shoe missed Breivik, hitting his defence lawyer.
Breivik, 33, admits killing 69 people at a youth summer camp on Utoeya island and eight in a bomb attack in Oslo on 22 July 2011. But he denies criminal responsibility.

Apparently the guy suffered some kind of breakdown and was taken away in an ambulance. He was applauded by the spectators in the courtroom for throwing the shoe.

I just wish it had been able to hit the **** excuse for a man in the back of his head - then he might at least get some form of symbolic punishment for what he did... The shoe hit one of the attorneys who was defending the man.. And the person who was trowing the shoo, was leaving the court, with the help of the police, and sent to a hospital for check up.. Hopefully he also get help from his grief in some way or another...
And yes, he was also applauded by some of the spectators, I guess many would have thrown that shoe - rather than sit quiet in a court rome full of sorrow and sadness..
I'm little surprised that no one have tried to do something with him before to be honest.. but it is a statement to where we as a people really are I guess.... A lot of sadness, a lot of anger.....
And I am also really sure, when the time come, he would end up in a deep hole where the sun never shine....
