“I Saw Only Hatred”: Nora Haukland’s Emotional Testimony Shakes Høiby Court in Oslo

0:03 Calarugus Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Crown and Controversy Norway I Am Your Palace Intrigue host to Mark Francis, Norwegian influencer, model and former Love Ireland Norway contestant Norah Hauckland took the stand Friday in Oslow District Court, giving an emotional account of her relationship with Marius Borgheby. Weby is charged with domestic abuse against Halkland. He denies criminal guilt. Halcland described what she said had become a pattern over the course of their relationship, which lasted a little over a year from around April of twenty twenty two to July twenty twenty three. Prosecutors argue she lived under what they call a regime of fear and Helkland's testimony focused on incidents she says involve violence, jealousy, control, and repeated infidelity.

0:55 At one point, Hawkland described a confrontation at Skalgum in late twenty twenty two, after she says she challenged Towaby over a rumor that he had been unfaithful. In court, she said, and then he says I hate you, and he gets right up in my face. He says I'm ruining his life and pushes me down on the sofa. He has both hands placed around my neck, his arms straight, and I can see I can't get through to him. I remember again. Then I start to black out, and I can see his eyes, and there I see only hatred. How Come said, The incident continued, and then he slaps me, and I come too, and then he starts smashing things around him, she told the court, describing what she says happened next as he broke objects and through things. In another account of the same episode, she said, I remember I start to black out. All I see in his eyes is just hate. And then he slaps me and I come to, and then he starts smashing things around and I remember he threw colory at me and at a door, and then he screams how much he hates me.

1:50 He was so angry, She said. The aftermath was confusing and emotional. I'm very shocked, and then I go over to him and hold him. Then he cries, and then I cry, she said. How Can also told the court she felt the relationship changed her sense of reality and confidence. There were early things that didn't add up. I felt a bit like an object she said, she spoke about messages She says she discovered involving another woman. The content hurt me deeply, and then I was told that the reason he was unfaithful was because I wasn't willing to do the same things she had done. She described what she'd called repeated denial and manipulation in court. She explained the concepts she set applied to her experience. It's when you've experienced an incident and you want to know how you experienced it and what happened. But then someone wants to tell you that everything you think is wrong and that you were crazy, what happened didn't happen, and you have a completely warped picture of everything. In the end, you start to believe it and you become uncertain. She then added how it affected her personally. I became very uncertain about whether everything I said was actually not funny and nice, and that people perceived me completely differently because maybe I had a completely warped image of how I was seen. Prosecutor Stirler henrixburg her on why she stayed.

3:01 He asked, why didn't you leave him? Hal Clan responded, you had a lot of hope that it would get better. There was something so beautiful in the good parts too, and it was very intense, and I cared about him so incredibly much. She described a split and the person she felt she was dealing with. I feel Marius has two faces, one that is very sweet and charming and one that is determined and angry, hard in his grip different. Henrix Spurr asked, was there anything you feared? Halcln replied he could say things like that he absolutely didn't want to live anymore, that he didn't want a damn thing to do with me, that he hates me, but it often ended with him doing something that made me afraid. Despite everything she described, she told the court she continued to feel protective of him. I really wanted to save him.

3:44 I have always been, and still am, very fond of Marius, she said, wiping tears. He has a lot of good qualities that I wish he would feed. That is the Marius I was very in love with and fond of, and I feel very sorry for him. Halclin testified about additional episodes she said curred in Oslo and elsewhere, including one where she locked herself in a bedroom as he threatened to break the door down. She told the court, he said, for how's sake, open that door. I'll kick it down. She described what she says happened when she opened it. The moment I opened it, I get the door in my face and then he grabs me by the throat. He pins me against the wall and screams in my face, and then he pushes me down on the bed. When I asked what she remembered him shouting during those moments, halcn said, it's probably as always, you efing whare for f's sake, I hate you go off and die if you burn in hell. Everything just comes like a loop every time. Prosecutors also played or referenced material from that period. In one sequence described in court reporting, a video filmed and a taxi showed a phone call discussing an incident with a person saying, but I saw in the hall that you grabbed her by the throat, The reporting says, Huebi replied, yes, that's fine, before the video ended, how can identify the caller as a witness, saying it was the security guard who saw that Marius choked me. Halclinn told the court that when she tried to confront Hoibe about it, She says he denied it.

5:05 When I said to Marius that he grabbed me by the throat, he said, absolutely not. I just wanted someone to say you did. But he acted like it never happened, and he always did that, she said. She added that was something I felt I never got, referring to an apology. She also described the broader social and professional impact. She says the relationship had. I think he tried to stop but he couldn't, and I didn't go out partying. I didn't want to be seen. After a while, I feel it was difficult for me to be around Hoibe because he was up and down in mood. In one moment he loved me, and in the next I had ruined his life. My career went to hell, and being a public pillary and a symbol of how wrong it can go and how stupid influences were, it was just embarrassing. She told the court she felt isolated from others after all the incidents. There were so many who didn't want Hoibi to come to things anymore, which meant me, she said, there were fewer invitations you could tell. People felt they couldn't talk to me because they read messages and she added, if I went somewhere and he wasn't there, it was always something, It was always a problem. It became exhausting for me and my friends. It wasn't just that we could have a nice time. Court reporting also noted Hoebe's demeanor during her testimony, saying he rarely looked at Halcland and spent much of the time drawing. The court day ended with how Cland expected to continue her testimony on Tuesday, more crown and controversy in just a moment. The schedule for next week is now clearer. Holckland is due to continue on Tuesday morning and after lunch. Hoebi is expected to give his account on the charges related to how Cland.

6:36 Reporting indicates he may continue on Wednesday morning as well, before additional witnesses and forensic testimony are expected, including police and technical evidence review. The court has also been told to expect testimony later in the week from Sophie Elise, as well as friends, neighbors, and other witnesses mentioned in today's coverage. Separately, Netavisen also reported on Hoibi's earlier statements and another part of the case where he denied criminal guilt and said after this case came out, there have been quite a lot of false accusations. Maybe there is an economic motive. When asked directly by the prosecutor, you think there could be an economic motive what she told the court yesterday, he replied, I'm not in her head, but to me, it doesn't make sense at all. It could be that claim was rejected in the same reporting by several complain inside lawyers and the witness. A sister of one complainant said she doesn't if she had financial intentions, There's a lot she could have said and done to get money. She has a lot of information about him she could have handed over if she wanted money. She also said, yes, I think she has been offered to take part in podcasts and then there was something with Netflix.

7:40 There are several who have contacted her and offered money. A striking sign of how deeply the Marius Borgoebe cases penetrated Norwegian society came from outside the court room. Earlier in the week. Actor Mad's Sugard Peterson, who has been setting through the proceedings day after day, is now developing a theater production based on the scandal. The play, titled The Sun, will premiere at Dennet National Scene in Bergen in June and will not be a documentary retelling, but a fictional story inspired by real events, something its creators explicitly compare to the crown. The story will be told through the eyes of the King's bodyguards, the people who, in their words, see everything, but are never allowed to speak.

8:21 The creative team says the goal is not to pass judgment on the case, but to ab nuance and open a wider conversation, using the trial as a springboard to explore questions of power, privilege, justice, gender, sexuality, and Norway's drinking and drug culture. At the same time, they stress they must not get too close to the real details because there are complainants who must be protected.
