About the book and Haakon:
Two investigative journalists write about how Marius and his friends can be connected to some of Europe's most notorious drug gangs. They write also about new details around August 4, 2024 - when Marius was arrested and charged with damage and violence against his then-girlfriend.
According to the authors, the Police Security Service (PST) was supposed to notify the Palace that the arrest was going to take place, but before that time, the PST itself was said to have been called by Haakon.
This was before the case was made public, and before the Palace had been informed. The authors believe that someone from within the police leaked information to Haakon that Marius was to be arrested.
Mette Marit also answered the phone, the authors write. She is said to have called her son to warn him. When the police arrested Marius about half an hour later, his cell phone was broken and the SIM card was gone.
Dagbladet contacted the Palace on Monday afternoon to hear if they wish to comment on the allegations surrounding Haakon. The Palace has responded that they will get back at a later date.

About the book and Mette-Marit
The authors claim that Mette-Marit was furious when she learned that her son had been arrested for the second time at the raiding of the cabin in Skeikampen – without the police having notified her first.
According to the authors, Mette-Marit was still informed – but via a completely different channel. A friend of Marius is said to have called her directly on a secret private number and told her what had happened.
En ny bok om Marius Borg Høiby og miljøet rundt ham skaper sterke reaksjoner. Ifølge forfatterne skal kronprinsesse Mette-Marit ha blitt rasende på politiet da sønnen ble arrestert – fordi hun ikke ble varslet på forhånd.

A good column by Jan Bøhler, a columnist for Nettavisen, previously a member of the Parliament for 16 years and deputy chairman of the Parliament's Justice Committee. There, Bøhler worked extensively with criminal gangs and child and youth crime, which he has continued to do since.
He writes about the book among other things:
They give us new information that the police observed Høiby in the middle of Karl Johan one late summer night in 2023. There he is said to have stood in our main street up towards the Palace and sold bags of cocaine, without them opening a criminal case – as they would have done for everyone else.
The police have also reportedly found several money transfers between him and a former football player with close ties to a large drug network. "For two decades, the police had left Marius Borg Høiby alone," the authors write.
And about Haakon and Mette-Marit at the book:
They are quoted in several places as having known Høiby's friends. They have even been present when they have come to a party in Skaugum. The more we read about them, the more we wonder how it has worked out. They must also have realized that Høiby has had a lifestyle that could not be financed with NOK 20,000 a month, and should have questioned this. Or whether it is a proper use of their apanage, i.e. our tax money.
Politiet har forsømt seg i behandlingen av nettverkene rundt Marius Høiby, mener spaltist Jan Bøhler.
