The 29-year-old son of Norway's crown princess, Marius Borg Høiby, has been sentenced to four years in prison after an Oslo court found him guilty of multiple offenses, including two counts of r*pe, domestic abuse, and assault. The ruling marks the end of one of the most closely watched criminal cases in recent Norwegian history.
The verdict was handed down on 15 June following a trial that lasted several weeks and examined allegations that spanned several years. Prosecutors had sought a significantly longer sentence, while Høiby's legal team argued for a much lighter punishment.
