Talk:Ragnar Skancke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm removing the statement about the postwar trials being considered a miscarriage of justice. It carries no source & it's ambiguous—it might mean the postwar trials in Norway are considered a miscarriage of justice, in which case I'm not qualified to evaluate if it's true or not (but if it is, it needs a source), or it might mean that the postwar trials in general are considered a miscarriage of justice, in which case it's just wrong. Furthermore, the anon who introduced the statement has made only two edits to Wikipedia; both were to this stub, and taken together they would appear to have been intended to introduce a pro-Quisling POV.

- This text translates from the Norwegian article: In later times these verdicts became controverial, as the death penalty was reintroduced into the Norwegian legal system by the exiled cabinet towards the end of the war in order to deal with the post-war trials. __meco 17:22, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Statement about lifetime sentence
There is no mention of him being sentenced to prison in the Norwegian article. On the contrary, it reads: Skancke was surprisingly unanimously sentenced to death on May 21, 1946 for treason. After the Supreme Court on March 17, 1947 upheld the death penalty verdict Skancke attempted to have the case reopened. __meco 17:22, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
