No jail time, but his license to practice medicine and dentistry were revoked. No big fat fine and no community service--maybe the authorities decided that prosecution was too much effort. I still think that at the very least he should have to clean the toilets at a dental clinic every week for a few years. (But no, I don't think I should be punished for the false theorem I published--that's different since it was a mistake, not fraud.)</p> http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~cook/movabletype/archives/2007/02/norwegian_fraud.html
