Marius Borg Hoiby had pleaded not guilty to the most severe accusations against him, including those of rape, while admitting to some lesser ones, and can appeal the verdict.
The stepson of Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon has been found guilty of two counts of rape, one count of domestic violence and other crimes and is sentenced to four years in prison, an Oslo court ruled on Monday.
Marius Borg Hoiby, 29, who joined the royal family when his mother Mette-Marit married Haakon in 2001, was acquitted on two other accounts of rape.
He had pleaded not guilty to the most severe accusations against him, including those of rape, while admitting to some lesser ones, and can appeal the verdict.
Prosecutors had asked that Hoiby should be sentenced to seven years and seven months of prison.
Exactly. Complete opposite of the US where they run prison for profit.
And if anything American prisons make criminals into better criminals. It’s called con college for a reason.
