    It depends. Norway avoids sending people to jail willy nilly but it also has provisions to remove dangerous people from society if needed. And the court will probably be under pressure not go easy on him in order to create even more resentment towards the royal family.

      Yeah, he is an easy target for the courts aince he isn’t actually a member of the royal family. He’s the crown prince’s step son and not in line to the throne.

        Even if was an actual prince they would probably use him an expiatory goat to show the royal family takes the law seriously, which is particularly critical with Märtha Louise’s shenanigans already staining their reputation. Him being just the prince’s step-son just makes it a no-brainer.
