US EditionMarius Borg Høiby: Woman Tells Norway Rape Trial of Crown Princess's Son She Suspects She Was Drugged
- On Tuesday, Marius Borg Høiby pleaded not guilty as prosecutor Sturla Henriksbø read a 38-count indictment in Oslo District Court, room 250.
- After an investigation that began in 2024, prosecutors expanded the 38-count indictment in January to include possession and transport of 3.5 kilograms of marijuana as more accusers came forward.
- At issue are images and videos prosecutors say show assaults recorded on his phone, with court testimony describing a December 20, 2018 after-party at the Skaugum royal estate where an unnamed alleged victim said she blacked out.
- The trial is set to run for weeks, and the royal couple will not attend; Høiby faces up to 16 years in prison, damaging the royal family's image.
- Amid the hearings, the trial is fueling broader debate as the new batch of Epstein documents released on Friday revived scrutiny of Mette-Marit, while parliament voted yesterday to keep the monarchy despite falling support.
