Trond Henriksen is worried about the police hunt on Millehaugen – news Norway – Overview of news from different parts of the country

Three days ago, the police alarm went off on double murder convict Stig Millehaugen. He never showed up at the prison door after a six-hour leave. The police are working hard to find the man who is described as “Norway’s most dangerous”. But the title has never been protected. In the 90s, it was Trond Henriksen who got this nickname. After escaping from prison with another inmate, snatching police officers with a gun and kidnapping a police officer, he eventually ended up back in the cell. It has been several years since Henriksen served his sentence. Today he is a camper for the Church’s City Mission in Halden, where he helps young people who are in danger of falling outside. Trur mention makes the police scared But he is worried that the police hunt that is now taking place will have unfortunate consequences for Millehaugen. They have been our friends since adolescence, and sat in teams in every cell. When he heard that his friend had been absent after the leave, he thought: ‘Oh damn father, that was stupid. That was damn stupid, Stig. ” He knows what it’s like to be on the run. He knows it’s tiring. – It took me back 20-30 years. The feeling of being, quite simply, a predator being hunted. Because that was how it was known at the time. Trond Henriksen knows what it is like to be on the run, and how dangerous it can be.

The comrade disappeared when the leave was over. He wanted to be with the children and his girlfriend, Henriksen said. – He was actually shot and killed by a policeman who was to arrest him. I think it was very much about the police feeling that this was Norway’s most dangerous man. Henriksen fears that something similar could happen to Millehaugen. He is afraid that the mention of him gives unfortunate consequences during an arrest. – It is very unfortunate to label people as Norway’s most dangerous. I can say with my hand on my heart that I know of many who are much more dangerous than Stig, he says. – But this makes the situation much more complicated as well. I think it is not only he who is afraid, but also the police who are looking for him and will arrest him. Stig Millehaugen, convicted of double murder, did not appear after leave. Now he is wanted nationally and internationally.

Then he gets to take the extra penalty and the years it takes to get new chances. Trond Henriksen fears that Millehaugen’s actions will have negative consequences for others on their way out of prison. The debate over leave rules for remand prisoners is already underway. But leave is an important tool for being able to adapt to society, says Henriksen. – Therefore, I hope that the prison service keeps its tongue straight in its mouth, and will not introduce such a collective abolition in the wake of this incident. Because we are not ignited as a society.
