The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
The Western Uusimaa District Court sentenced Norwegian Rolf Nordmo to the life imprisonment of Janne Puhakka.
Criminal law experts consider the murder sentence well justified, even though only the criterion of brutality was met.
Tatu Hyttinen, assistant professor at the University of Turku, and Sakari Melander, professor of criminal law at the University of Helsinki, also consider that there are also features of a crime.

On Tuesday, the Norwegian Norwegian Nordmo District Court sentenced to a lifetime imprisonment of a former hockey player Janne Puhakan murder.
Not yet known, Will Normo appeal against the judgment to the Court of Appeal.
Nordmo killed his former male friend in their former joint home at Hentta, Espoo on October 13, last year.
The crime title was perhaps the most important open issue in Tuesday’s judgment. The prosecutor had demanded a penalty for Nordmo for his murder, but the defense of the accused considered the act to be killed.
Nordmo has admitted that he has caused the death of Puhaka. However, he has denied that the act was planned and considered.
District court He considered that only brutality was met by the criteria for the murder. The prosecutor had started from the fact that stable judgment, brutality and cruelty were all filled.
« Of course, it is enough if, as a whole, the assessment can be considered exceptionally outrageous, » says Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice at the University of Turku Tatu Hyttinen.
According to Hyttinen, the evaluation of brutality is particularly related to the way of committing a crime. For example, brutality may be that several different tools are used.
« Here’s a shotgun for both shooting and after the head -to -head attacks. It is exceptional brutality. »
Cruise, on the other hand, refers to the killing of another’s goal and to prolong the victim’s pain, says Hyttinen.
Although the District Court held that the cruelty criterion was not met in the case of Puhakka, Hyttinen estimates the features of a crime of cruel crime.
With regard to steady consideration, Hyttinen believes that there were both favorable features and factors that spoke against steady consideration.
« There was a viable suspicion that there was a steady consideration, even though many of the factors spoke for it.
University of Helsinki professor of criminal law Sakari Melander is on the same line with Hyttinen.
According to him, the District Court has used comprehensive consideration and taken into account the high court’s decision -making practice.
According to Melander, the court considered that there were features of both brutality and cruelty.
« Shooting, and then, while the victim is still alive, the strong use of violence show persistent killing of death. It was described that the procedure was furious, » Melander says.
The overall assessment of the act as a whole was probably influenced by the features of the cruelty of the act, Melander estimates.
According to him, the threshold for the fulfillment of a steady criterion is high in Finland.
« Bringing a weapon alone (to Finland) does not necessarily reflect it when there may have been other purposes, » Melander refers to the hunting hobby of Nordmo, who has been convicted of murder.
Also, according to Melander, the messages sent by Nordmo did not directly manifest a stable killing of the killing of Puhakka.
However, Melander believes that there were also indications of the discretion of the act.
« At least on the basis of this judgment, it did not seem to have remembered it (a crime of life) in that situation. »
