About Bente Lyon

Bente Lyon was a drug trafficker.

Bente Lyon is a Norwegian convicted of narcotics trafficking, and she has been convicted of organizing a brothel in Norway from 2000 to 2002. She has worked as a prostitute.

In 2006 she was portrayed on NRK'''s TV show "Bokprogrammet" in connection with her book Horemamma (female manager of whore/whores). NRK's website says that the book is about Lyon's "time of greatness as Oslo's brothel queen". There are also other ways in which the dangerousness of Bente and her crimes, are downplayed (ufarliggjøres). In other trials of pimping, details about the events and consequences for the victims are often emphasized. But from Bente's trials, media's focus is often on her juicy punchlines such as "Herregud'', Prosecutor, this was no common enterprise—this was a whorehouse". I can not envision that the looks of others tried for pimping, would be described in detail, as in Bente's case."
