Artist Odd Nerdrum sentenced to jail

First, let me express my disbelief and disappointment over the ruling of Odd Nerdrum VS. the Norwegian Government. Odd Nerdrum is to be sentenced to two years in prison, however the case is subject to appeal. <see source>
 However, after reading many comment from supporter of Odd, I grew very concerned over some of the comments...the Norwegian government is very likely to read and document comments from Nerdrum's family and friends, particularly if it provides new information for the prosecution.  Please, Stop giving NUMBERS, ANALYSIS and unsubstantiated speculative information.  Let the lawyers do their job. If you want to help, focus your efforts on a petition for leniency without the other hyperbole.
