For two and a half weeks, they have been face to face with the four men charged with murder or complicity in the murder of Jonas Aarseth Henriksen. Inside the courtroom, they have not said a word, but they have been angry, and dried tears, while listening to the explanations of the defendants, and eventually other witnesses. Today, Mom Elin, Dad Trond, Sister Ida and cohabitant Pernille testified in the trial. And for Trond Henriksen it cooked at some point over. After explaining how Jonas was as a person, Trond Henriksen turned to the defendants, and hit the table. – Now you have to fuck me up. That it is possible to be so damn cowardly. It is an incredible rotteri, he shouted. Henriksen then apologized to the judge. Missing remorse after the court was raised, Trond Henriksen told about the background of the outbreak. – I’ve probably gone on an anger for over a year and a half. I was thus prepared for that mind to be expressed today. But I had no idea how it was coming, or if it came at all, he tells news – what was you wanting to convey with what you said? – I feel that there is very little sign of remorse in some of the defendants. And it’s incomprehensible. So it was really an attempt to evoke something. He says it was a special, and important, day for the family in court. – It has been intense, painful and painful. I think we got a lot about how Jonas was as a person and how he experienced the hell he was exposed to. – He was terribly afraid of his father Trond Henriksen is the one of the four who has been closest to the witness box. Already on the first day he was determined to see them in his eyes. Later he experienced a very tough day when the scenes from the scene were described. He was in place early, and stroked his son, who was dead then on the cheek as the police arrived. Prior to that, he had told of a sacrificing son that he was very proud of. He eventually found his professional route in transport and trucks. Five years ago, he also created the profile trucking at Tiktok. – He posted things from his everyday life, something he got a great response to. He had not attended the influence school, it was neither polished nor any selling, but there were moments from life. Raw as it is, the father said. Eventually, 50,000 followed his profile. In social media, he also shared the vandalism and violence he was exposed to. – He was terribly scared, and he also reported all the matters that happened. And he was terribly frustrated that he was not taken seriously by the police. I have regretted it in hindsight that we did not just do more ourselves. We trusted that the police took hold of the information they received and that it was handled. In a separate report just over a month ago, the police regretted the handling of all the reports Jonas submitted. Talked about having children cohabitant Pernille Andersson was the first to take a seat in the witness box in courtroom 1 in Hønefoss. That summer Jonas was killed, a year and a half ago, they rarely lived at home. They were a lot with mother Elin Aarseth and stepfather Ivar Borgen in Drammen, as a result of several cases of vandalism and violence against Jonas. – That door to them was a bit twisted, and then he said that “if anyone comes after me here, I have no chance to get away”. He always went thinking about scenarios about what could happen. He thought it was embarrassing that he was so scared. – He always looked over his shoulder and was in readiness. He lived in readiness. Although they often slept separately and lived under strong external pressure, they were determined to stick together. – We were going to get married and have children. And having children was one of what Jonas wanted most in the world. I was just going to finish school, and we would become a family and start life, the cohabitant said. The last contact they had was on Snapchat the night before the murder. – We always sent messages in the evening, and the last thing we sent was that we love each other and good night. Pernille Andersson told today about the fear she and Jonas Aarseth Henriksen lived this summer he was killed.

No mothers are prepared for what she was going to do, but to do it at all, she had some notes with her. – Jonas was scared, desperate and frustrated. Did not know where to turn. He had confidence in the police, and so had I, the mother said. The mother told in court about a document Jonas team, which news has shown excerpts from earlier, where he wrote down details about what he was exposed to. – I get angry and provoked when I hear that some of the defendants do not want to say names, because they are afraid of being injured themselves. But they went on Jonas and troubled and terrorized. They made his life a hell, and then it ended that way. It is pure evil, what they have been doing. Elin Aarseth said that just a few days before the murder, she talked to Jonas about the future. – Then he said “Amma, when this is over, I will be free to Pernille”. He was looking forward to becoming a dad, and I was looking forward to becoming a grandmother. – I’m a little unsure if I’m ever going to be really happy again. They have taken some of me away, said the mother, who also showed several videos of the son in court. Mother Elin Aarseth and stepfather Ivar Borgen at Grava to Jonas.

The sister also told of a conversation she had with the police. – Then I said “if you don’t do anything now, I’m afraid he’s dead the next time we talk together”. “And that’s how it was,” said assistant lawyer Marijana Lozic. “That’s how it was,” said Ida, with tears in her eyes and a lump in the throat.
