A processoSommario
Two people were found killed at a house in Ski, in Akershus outside Oslo, on Saturday 14 December 2024: a woman in her seventies and her son, a man in his forties. A third member of the household, the woman's daughter and the man's sister, then in her forties, was arrested and charged with both killings. All three were registered at the same address. In the days after the killings her defence lawyer said she had given a detailed account, accepted criminal guilt as charged at that stage and wished to cooperate with the police, and that the police had requested a preliminary psychological assessment. Her trial ran for five days at Follo og Nordre Østfold district court. On Friday 21 August 2026 the state prosecutor asked for a sentence of 17 years' imprisonment, arguing that the killings were carried out in a particularly ruthless manner against two people who were in her care and who trusted her. Counsel for the victims' family sought damages, compensation and forfeiture of her inheritance rights. Her defence asked for acquittal. What happened is not disputed at trial. The accused has admitted killing her mother and her brother but does not accept criminal guilt, and the question before the court is whether she was criminally sane at the time. If the court finds she was, she can be sentenced to prison; if it finds she was not, the alternatives are compulsory psychiatric care or acquittal. A forensic psychiatric assessment was central to the case. No verdict had been delivered at the time of the cited report.
