Marius Borg Høiby News & Current Events Part 1: December 2023 -

[Michiru-Kaiou]

By the way, destroying a SIM card is actually quite useless, as the police can just get a duplicate from the service provider, there is surprisingly few data on it. And, usually, professional data recovery is quite good with destroyed phones. So, even if they did destroy the phone and SIM the chances, that they destroyed actual data beyond recoverability is quite low. The father of my married-in aunt is a technician at the police for exactly that and is always quite amused how people think smashing phones or hiding SIM cards works.

Crown Prince Regent Haakon cancelled a job event yesterday, which is highly unusual. Mette-Marit hosted alone a lunch for the state administrators at 14.00. According to the Palace's communications manager Guri Varpe, Haakon was prevented from attending the lunch due to "private reasons".
Se og Hør can reveal the likely reason for the cancellation. Passengers on board SK805 from Gardermoen to London could observe at 13.00 yesterday that Haakon entered the flight together with Marius. Why does Haakon travel with his bonus son to London when he has duties at home? According to what Se og Hør has reason to believe, he accompanied Marius to a rehab stay.

Tok med Marius på rehab?

Torsdag ettermiddag meldte kronprins Haakon avbud på en jobb, svært ulikt ham. Nå kan Se og Hør avsløre hvorfor.

So much speculation, we will have to wait for the trial for the truth to come out. I think it was a big mistake for MM to go to his house and call the woman if that is true. As someone said you have to want to get better before anything will work for you.

My thoughts exactly. We have to assume that Norway has a functioning system of justice and if the prosecutor deem the evidence enough to prosecute Marius BH, then it comes to a trial. If not, the victims can act against that decicion. In any case there are more that one person involved in figuring if there is to be a trial and what they'll prosecute. They surely know how it will look if they don't prosecute the son of the CP, they'll know what will be made public by a trial and they'll think about what will happen if the facts become public. But most of all they'll think about the law, I hope.

Yes the phone and its contents are a crucial piece of evidence. When Marius was arrested, the officers had a search warrant for the phone and as such they seized the phone with hopes of obtaining it contents. However the phone was damaged and the SIM card was missing. Now we have Marius in essence saying that SIM card disappeared while his mother was "tidying up".

So yes, the Crown Princess should be arrested and interrogated for tampering evidence and obstructing justice. She needs to provide answers about what happened to the SIM card!

There is no evidence right now that MM did something against the law. We don't know even if that's what happened. Considering Marius' tendency for rages it could well been him. So it is very early to ask for the CP to be arrested! I'm sure hte trial will give answers, will establish the facts and the judge (s) will either send Marius to jail or not. But never believe the tabloids - while there could be the truth in anything they print, it mostly is not because they work under different aims that the judicial systems. They want to sell papers through scandal, while the courts try to establish some facts. I'll wait for the Court to tell me the facts.

My call for the Crown Princess' arrest and interrogation are based on information and repeated statements by her own son Marius. The information comes not exclusively from tabloids like S&H but from reputable Norwegian newspapers like NRK, Dagbladet, and VG (thanks Ladyfinn!).
Heck if Juliane Snekkestad's lawyer who certainly has more information and knowledge of the case(s)has also called for the Crown Princess to be interrogated and provide answers surely I'm on the right track!

Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall reading that there was a search warrant for the phone.

To me the actions of law enforcement do not square with them deeming the SIM card a crucial piece of evidence. If it was a crucial piece of evidence you are stating that Mette-Marit should be arrested and interrogated, I don't know about the arrested part, but yeah she should be interrogated and since she was not, nor was Marius' residence searched - IIRC Marius was in custody for 30 hours, it makes me question if the missing SIM card was crucial evidence. Also, as someone stated, most if not all SIM card content can be recovered other ways.

Nevertheless the missing SIM card is a serious thing. I am not convinced that it is crucial evidence but the media getting the information and reporting it is definitely a bad thing in terms of optics and scandal. This brings to mind the Watergate mantra, the cover up is often worse than the crime. In this case, I am not referring to Marius' crime of physical violence and threats but whatever was on the SIM card, and I will tack on whatever needed to get "cleaned up", whatever was trying to get accomplished by the SIM card going missing and the cleaning up, I suspect is superseded by the fact that these two factoids are now in the public domain.

So is Marius going to a rehab facility in the UK? I am surprised that he is allowed to leave Norway while facing criminal charges.

Well, he was on a holiday in Italy too...

TV2 writes also about Haakon and Marius going to London:
Haakon arrived in a black car (photo) together with Marius, according to a passenger TV 2 has spoken to. Haakon was regent and acted as supreme commander in connection with the King being on a private trip. According to §41 of the Constitution, the government must govern the country itself if both the King and Haakon are abroad.
On Thursday, the Prime Minister's Office was notified of the trip.
- The Prime Minister's office was notified by phone on Thursday morning that the Crown Prince Regent would go abroad. The Prime Minister's office had previously been notified that the King was abroad until Thursday evening. The King is now back in the country, says communications manager Anne Kristin Hjukse.
The flight to London landed at Heathrow Airport yesterday at 14.22. Due to the trip, Haakon will not participate in the Cabinet meeting today. The Palace doesn't comment on the background of the trip.
