Excerpt:
Norwegian gunman Anders Behring Breivik has prepared remarks he hopes to read out in court after the verdict is given in his trial for killing 77 people, his lawyer said in remarks published Wednesday.
"He wants to be held responsible," lawyer Geir Lippestad told the daily newspaper Aftenposten. "He thought about what he wanted to say to the judges and so has prepared a few lines for every outcome."
Lippestad said he was unsure if Breivik would be able to address the Oslo court on Friday, when five judges will announce whether they consider the 33-year-old legally responsible for his crimes.
