1
00:00:03,308 --> 00:00:06,018
We have heard here two
witnesses explain that
2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:07,640
the accused
3
00:00:08,141 --> 00:00:10,845
Ronnie Askov,
was not in Copenhagen
4
00:00:11,501 --> 00:00:13,731
but instead in a summer cottage
5
00:00:14,319 --> 00:00:15,911
in North Jutland when
the killing took place
6
00:00:16,389 --> 00:00:17,910
and therefore cannot have
been the perpetrator.
7
00:00:19,841 --> 00:00:23,292
I refute those claims as we
have numerous witnesses that
8
00:00:23,392 --> 00:00:27,839
have identified the accused
from the CCTV that we have seen
9
00:00:28,084 --> 00:00:33,032
and also we have the text messages
that were sent from the phone of the
10
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:37,312
accused to the phone of the victim in
the weeks leading up to the killing.
11
00:00:38,088 --> 00:00:39,870
I would like to quote:
12
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:43,274
"I will kill you crazy"
13
00:00:45,199 --> 00:00:46,282
"Sleep tight...
14
00:00:47,864 --> 00:00:50,752
...I know where you and
your whore are hiding."
15
00:00:54,918 --> 00:00:56,780
Message....
...after message.
16
00:00:57,454 --> 00:00:58,881
Leading up to the
day of the killing.
17
00:00:59,778 --> 00:01:00,964
And then they stopped.
18
00:01:02,285 --> 00:01:05,486
So even with the witnesses
telling the court that the
19
00:01:05,486 --> 00:01:08,931
accused, Ronnie Askov, wasn't
in the flat in Copenhagen,
20
00:01:09,582 --> 00:01:13,309
the prosecution remains convinced that it
has been thoroughly proven
21
00:01:14,621 --> 00:01:18,934
that the accused, Ronnie Askov,
shot and killed the merely 18
22
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,321
year old Brian Ottesen on the
morning of Sunday the 23ʳᵈ of March.
23
00:01:23,808 --> 00:01:27,881
A shooting of this kind can only have been
planned and a deliberate act.
24
00:01:29,407 --> 00:01:33,661
And therefore it is beyond
any reasonable doubt proven
25
00:01:33,686 --> 00:01:37,940
that the accused, Ronnie
Askov, has committed a murder.
26
00:01:53,813 --> 00:01:54,967
Aren't you the head
of Serious Crimes?
27
00:01:56,416 --> 00:01:56,884
Yes, I am.
28
00:01:57,419 --> 00:01:59,039
Well.. the head of the Criminal
Investigation Department.
29
00:02:01,192 --> 00:02:03,735
It was...
..my boyfriend that was killed.
30
00:02:05,519 --> 00:02:06,528
I'm very sorry to hear that.
31
00:02:09,693 --> 00:02:11,900
How long does it normally take
for them to reach a verdict?
32
00:02:12,530 --> 00:02:13,847
Oh well. That is hard to say.
33
00:02:15,473 --> 00:02:16,519
Do you think he will
be found guilty?
34
00:02:17,611 --> 00:02:18,525
I really don't know.
35
00:02:22,450 --> 00:02:23,534
How far are you gone?
36
00:02:25,395 --> 00:02:26,472
34 weeks.
37
00:02:27,356 --> 00:02:28,251
Congratulations.
38
00:02:31,466 --> 00:02:33,290
He didn't even know he
was going to be a dad.
39
00:02:40,049 --> 00:02:42,609
We have now reached a
verdict in this case.
40
00:02:42,804 --> 00:02:44,232
And the verdict is:
41
00:02:44,380 --> 00:02:47,760
The accused, Ronnie Askov,
42
00:02:47,860 --> 00:02:51,928
is found Not Guilty in the case of the
murder of Brian Ottesen.
43
00:02:52,519 --> 00:02:53,563
You may be seated.
44
00:02:58,249 --> 00:03:03,314
I can inform the court, that this was not an
unanimous verdict between jury and judges.
45
00:03:03,613 --> 00:03:09,651
There were one judge and two jury
members that found the accused guilty,
46
00:03:09,676 --> 00:03:15,216
while the rest determined there was
not enough evidence to convict.
47
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,194
Did you see him look up?
48
00:03:28,262 --> 00:03:30,783
Yes.
I know he did it.
49
00:03:32,395 --> 00:03:33,342
Yes, I know that also.
50
00:03:34,023 --> 00:03:35,545
But clearly we failed to prove it.
51
00:03:37,047 --> 00:03:38,144
Let's appeal the case.
52
00:03:38,627 --> 00:03:40,805
I need to read through
the verdict first.
53
00:03:41,577 --> 00:03:44,331
If the CCTV and the
threats were not enough,
54
00:03:46,979 --> 00:03:48,604
then I am not sure
what else we can do.
55
00:03:51,550 --> 00:03:52,626
I hate the court.
56
00:03:56,179 --> 00:03:57,243
I'll see you later.
57
00:04:09,245 --> 00:04:14,140
The Investigation
58
00:04:17,554 --> 00:04:23,601
Day 1
11ᵗʰ August 2017
59
00:04:29,612 --> 00:04:30,049
Morning.
60
00:04:30,656 --> 00:04:31,831
Do you know where my cup is?
61
00:04:33,087 --> 00:04:33,754
Your cup?
62
00:04:33,778 --> 00:04:34,478
Yes.
63
00:04:35,796 --> 00:04:37,001
Someone has stolen your cup?
64
00:04:37,225 --> 00:04:38,025
Ha ha ha.
65
00:04:39,281 --> 00:04:40,013
There it is.
66
00:04:44,287 --> 00:04:45,044
Do you want coffee?
67
00:04:46,288 --> 00:04:47,635
Yes, please.
That would be great.
68
00:04:52,208 --> 00:04:52,708
Thanks.
69
00:04:58,856 --> 00:04:59,658
Are you busy?
70
00:05:01,411 --> 00:05:02,259
I hope not.
71
00:05:04,186 --> 00:05:05,540
I am busy.
Apparently.
72
00:05:07,515 --> 00:05:11,790
I'll probably
not be home until after 4.
73
00:05:13,620 --> 00:05:14,840
Okay. I can buy the fish.
74
00:05:15,241 --> 00:05:15,824
Great.
75
00:05:17,479 --> 00:05:19,428
Remember that your daughter
is bringing her boyfriend.
76
00:05:21,638 --> 00:05:22,188
See you later.
77
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:22,750
Yes.
78
00:05:33,155 --> 00:05:34,247
Nero!
Come!
79
00:05:35,867 --> 00:05:37,765
Globus!
Come!
80
00:05:41,095 --> 00:05:44,786
It is very nice to
take the back-roads...
81
00:05:46,442 --> 00:05:47,373
Yes, it is very beautiful there.
82
00:05:47,373 --> 00:05:48,185
Indeed.
83
00:05:48,215 --> 00:05:49,894
Good reason to go that way.
84
00:05:51,027 --> 00:05:53,027
Because all the....
85
00:05:53,465 --> 00:05:53,984
Good Morning.
86
00:05:55,096 --> 00:05:56,867
Morning.
Morning.
87
00:05:58,820 --> 00:06:00,465
Okay.
Let's start.
88
00:06:01,431 --> 00:06:02,487
Hmm. Yes.
89
00:06:02,511 --> 00:06:03,747
Of course they say that.
90
00:06:06,620 --> 00:06:07,017
Nicolaj?
91
00:06:07,041 --> 00:06:09,916
Yes.
I have a peculiar one here.
92
00:06:10,807 --> 00:06:15,167
At about 01.00, a young man called and
reported his Swedish girlfriend missing.
93
00:06:15,540 --> 00:06:20,036
She is a journalist and at around
19.00 she sailed in a home-built
94
00:06:20,061 --> 00:06:24,692
submarine in relation to an interview
but didn't return as intended.
95
00:06:24,716 --> 00:06:26,364
Home-built submarine?
96
00:06:27,049 --> 00:06:30,669
Yes, she apparently wanted to
interview one of those who built it.
97
00:06:31,394 --> 00:06:32,593
And it was just the two of them?
98
00:06:33,013 --> 00:06:34,282
Yes, as far as we know.
99
00:06:36,057 --> 00:06:36,815
What is the status now?
100
00:06:37,024 --> 00:06:41,075
The submarine has been reported
missing and the Navy has been alerted
101
00:06:41,099 --> 00:06:46,469
in case it is at the bottom of Øresund in
which case it becomes a rescue operation.
102
00:06:47,208 --> 00:06:47,771
Worst case?
103
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,859
That they run out of
oxygen before we find them.
104
00:06:55,089 --> 00:06:55,569
Okay.
105
00:06:58,673 --> 00:06:59,355
Musa?
106
00:07:00,076 --> 00:07:00,962
What have you got?
107
00:07:00,986 --> 00:07:01,486
Yes.
108
00:07:01,511 --> 00:07:03,834
I have two and maybe three shootings
that are likely all linked.
109
00:07:03,858 --> 00:07:05,858
One in Mimisgade
One in Tingberg
110
00:07:05,882 --> 00:07:06,556
and one in Unisgade.
111
00:07:06,940 --> 00:07:11,435
And it says here that one person was wounded. He
appears to have been an innocent bystander and not
112
00:07:11,460 --> 00:07:15,811
linked to the gangs. He was suddenly
hit by shots from a passing by car.
113
00:07:23,466 --> 00:07:24,078
Jens Møller.
114
00:07:24,102 --> 00:07:25,014
It's Jakob.
115
00:07:25,294 --> 00:07:26,121
I had a missed call.
116
00:07:26,121 --> 00:07:29,142
Yes. I just wanted to hear if there was
anything new in the Ronnie Askov case?
117
00:07:29,166 --> 00:07:32,853
No. not yet. I am still waiting to hear
from the Prosecution office.
118
00:07:32,877 --> 00:07:36,225
But it is not like we have
anything new to bring.
119
00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:36,779
No.
120
00:07:37,246 --> 00:07:37,780
Okay.
121
00:07:37,827 --> 00:07:39,358
I'll be in touch.
Have a good weekend.
122
00:07:45,953 --> 00:07:46,770
PULL!
123
00:08:05,264 --> 00:08:05,964
It's Jens.
124
00:08:08,928 --> 00:08:09,686
Yes. Hi Nikolaj.
125
00:08:12,719 --> 00:08:13,992
Okay.
The submarine.
126
00:08:16,211 --> 00:08:17,258
Okay. Yes.
Yes.
127
00:08:20,966 --> 00:08:21,439
Okay.
128
00:08:21,463 --> 00:08:22,757
And all aboard are fine?
129
00:08:24,546 --> 00:08:25,638
And also the journalist?
130
00:08:27,099 --> 00:08:29,664
Great news.
Have a good weekend.
131
00:08:48,183 --> 00:08:48,815
PULL!
132
00:08:55,405 --> 00:08:55,894
PULL!
133
00:09:08,074 --> 00:09:08,913
Yes, Hello.
134
00:09:12,708 --> 00:09:13,170
Hello!
135
00:09:25,503 --> 00:09:26,149
Hello.
136
00:09:26,502 --> 00:09:27,395
Yes, It is Jens again.
137
00:09:28,329 --> 00:09:32,080
Right. Now we have been told that the
submarine did sink.
138
00:09:33,503 --> 00:09:34,265
It sank?
139
00:09:34,687 --> 00:09:35,127
Yes.
140
00:09:35,130 --> 00:09:35,726
Ohh!!
141
00:09:35,809 --> 00:09:40,457
Yes. It sank suddenly, shortly after
the sailing boat had contact with it.
142
00:09:40,588 --> 00:09:41,814
And what about those on-board?
143
00:09:42,686 --> 00:09:45,814
Well, it appears the submarine builder has
been rescued.
144
00:09:46,234 --> 00:09:47,016
Hmmm!
145
00:09:47,831 --> 00:09:48,712
And the journalist?
146
00:09:49,897 --> 00:09:51,012
There was no
information about her.
147
00:09:52,276 --> 00:09:56,339
The colleagues from central are asking if they
should arrest him?
148
00:09:58,155 --> 00:09:59,148
Well... for what?
149
00:09:59,899 --> 00:10:00,940
Oh...I don't know.
150
00:10:05,272 --> 00:10:08,385
We should ask him to come to the station
for an interview.
151
00:10:08,869 --> 00:10:10,263
Okay.
And if he refuses?
152
00:10:10,342 --> 00:10:12,242
Then, we will know that there
is something dodgy going on.
153
00:10:12,937 --> 00:10:13,931
Okay.
Understood.
154
00:10:14,589 --> 00:10:17,399
I will then ask them to
bring him to the station.
155
00:10:17,399 --> 00:10:18,717
Perfect!
I'll come there now.
156
00:10:18,741 --> 00:10:20,141
Okay.
Great.
157
00:10:33,661 --> 00:10:36,841
He claims that he brought her
back at 22.30 but the boyfriend
158
00:10:36,841 --> 00:10:40,767
hasn't heard anything from her since
she sent him a text at around 8pm.
159
00:10:42,024 --> 00:10:43,108
Where did she go?
160
00:10:43,727 --> 00:10:44,391
What do you mean?
161
00:10:44,391 --> 00:10:47,106
Did he not see where she
went after he brought her back?
162
00:10:47,206 --> 00:10:48,041
Hmmm!
163
00:10:48,793 --> 00:10:50,530
Have we asked for the
dog squad to go there?
164
00:10:50,681 --> 00:10:52,184
Yes, they have already
been out there.
165
00:10:54,055 --> 00:10:54,576
Yes?
166
00:10:54,576 --> 00:10:57,036
I was told to report here with regards to
the missing Swedish journalist.
167
00:10:57,036 --> 00:10:57,834
Yes.
Come on in.
168
00:10:59,451 --> 00:11:00,401
You can sit over there.
169
00:11:05,007 --> 00:11:06,096
Where were we, Nikolaj?
170
00:11:06,464 --> 00:11:10,148
Oh yes.
He didn't see where she went.
171
00:11:10,173 --> 00:11:15,303
But he claims to have sent a text
message to his wife after he left her.
172
00:11:17,691 --> 00:11:19,459
And what about the boyfriend?
173
00:11:19,643 --> 00:11:22,400
Maybe he was jealous that she
went sailing with another man?
174
00:11:23,085 --> 00:11:24,753
Could he have waited for her
when she came back on land?
175
00:11:24,964 --> 00:11:28,167
No, I doubt it. He has
a very solid alibi.
176
00:11:28,428 --> 00:11:31,459
He was with their joint friends all
evening and that has been verified.
177
00:11:34,061 --> 00:11:35,028
It's Jens Møller.
178
00:11:37,547 --> 00:11:38,168
Yes.
179
00:11:41,870 --> 00:11:42,390
Okay.
180
00:11:44,670 --> 00:11:45,950
And, she is completely sure?
181
00:11:47,104 --> 00:11:47,950
That's good.
182
00:11:48,289 --> 00:11:48,841
Thank you.
183
00:11:50,628 --> 00:11:51,575
That was the Navy.
184
00:11:52,917 --> 00:11:55,030
Their experts don't see
how the submarine can
185
00:11:55,055 --> 00:11:57,147
just sink like that, unless
it was done on purpose.
186
00:11:57,371 --> 00:11:59,803
The yachtsmen that found the guy.
What did they say?
187
00:11:59,805 --> 00:12:03,447
He had told them he had gone for
a dive and when he submerged
188
00:12:03,472 --> 00:12:07,215
then he had jumped into the sea
after which the submarine had sunk.
189
00:12:24,336 --> 00:12:25,316
This is Jens Møller.
190
00:12:26,108 --> 00:12:27,829
Yes.
Listen.
191
00:12:28,343 --> 00:12:31,034
I.. I think we need to charge him with
murder right now.
192
00:12:34,641 --> 00:12:36,155
You will see to it?
Thank you.
193
00:12:37,938 --> 00:12:40,655
Musa, Nikolaj.
You two need to prepare to question him.
194
00:12:54,896 --> 00:12:56,638
I hear that you are
charging him with murder?
195
00:12:56,971 --> 00:12:57,434
Yes.
196
00:12:59,853 --> 00:13:00,903
On what grounds?
197
00:13:01,179 --> 00:13:03,916
On the grounds that I
believe he has killed her.
198
00:13:06,181 --> 00:13:07,431
And what makes you think that?
199
00:13:08,534 --> 00:13:10,632
Because they sailed out
together and he returned alone.
200
00:13:10,684 --> 00:13:13,565
And then there are indications that
the submarine was sunk on purpose.
201
00:13:13,565 --> 00:13:14,589
Some indications?
202
00:13:17,032 --> 00:13:18,425
What else should I
charge him with?
203
00:13:19,903 --> 00:13:21,368
Have you made it
into the submarine?
204
00:13:21,826 --> 00:13:24,331
The divers from the Navy
are on their way now.
205
00:13:26,304 --> 00:13:26,804
Okay.
206
00:13:28,162 --> 00:13:31,157
He needs to go in front of a judge, no
later than 10.30 tomorrow morning.
207
00:13:32,123 --> 00:13:36,223
And before then, I really need a bit more than
just your hunch if we want him locked up.
208
00:13:40,418 --> 00:13:41,475
See you later.
209
00:13:43,174 --> 00:13:43,960
Yes.
210
00:13:52,505 --> 00:13:53,454
Yes. Hi. It's me.
211
00:13:56,241 --> 00:13:57,924
No. Unfortunately I haven't
been able to do that.
212
00:13:57,955 --> 00:13:59,434
I had to go back to the office.
213
00:14:01,295 --> 00:14:02,482
Yes...There is a new case.
214
00:14:04,524 --> 00:14:06,649
We know very little as yet.
Hopefully it's nothing.
215
00:14:09,359 --> 00:14:11,769
No, no. I will be back tonight.
Just not sure exactly when.
216
00:14:15,052 --> 00:14:17,076
Tell her that I am looking
forward to see her.
217
00:14:18,391 --> 00:14:19,391
Thanks love.
218
00:14:49,811 --> 00:14:52,171
And the journalist allegedly
was set off here.
219
00:14:52,310 --> 00:14:55,636
She lives with her boyfriend in
some sort of a commune over there.
220
00:14:55,984 --> 00:14:57,830
The accused has a workshop
in the same area.
221
00:14:59,283 --> 00:15:02,141
We begin to search here
and then drive westwards
222
00:15:02,225 --> 00:15:04,408
and here are some restaurants.
223
00:15:05,015 --> 00:15:07,780
We are in the process of
getting their CCTV footage.
224
00:15:09,275 --> 00:15:11,596
How far is it between the
workshop and her home?
225
00:15:11,696 --> 00:15:14,155
Some 2-300 metres, I would guess.
226
00:15:16,322 --> 00:15:17,903
But, they didn't
know each other?
227
00:15:19,108 --> 00:15:20,606
Well, that I don’t know.
228
00:15:29,226 --> 00:15:31,036
It's the central police station.
I'll answer.
229
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:32,260
Sure.
230
00:15:33,211 --> 00:15:33,978
This is Maibritt.
231
00:15:39,666 --> 00:15:40,130
LM!
232
00:15:40,255 --> 00:15:41,108
Møller!
233
00:15:41,260 --> 00:15:42,055
It's been a while.
234
00:15:42,177 --> 00:15:42,841
Indeed.
235
00:15:44,554 --> 00:15:46,587
I understand you have had
divers down to the submarine.
236
00:15:46,660 --> 00:15:48,366
Yes, I had a couple
of guys down there.
237
00:15:48,813 --> 00:15:49,897
But no sign of life?
238
00:15:50,026 --> 00:15:50,599
No.
239
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,163
No banging noises.
240
00:15:52,466 --> 00:15:54,419
We could not see any sign of
life through the windows.
241
00:15:54,453 --> 00:15:55,639
You haven't made it into it yet?
242
00:15:55,932 --> 00:15:59,845
No. The entrance is very small. There is no
reason to take unnecessary risks with the men.
243
00:15:59,885 --> 00:16:00,906
There is no sign of life.
244
00:16:01,085 --> 00:16:02,793
So we don't know if
she is in there?
245
00:16:02,807 --> 00:16:04,567
If she is, then she is not alive.
246
00:16:05,816 --> 00:16:08,004
Didn't he say that he
had dropped her off?
247
00:16:08,181 --> 00:16:10,820
Yes, but we have just been out there
and there are no signs of her.
248
00:16:12,373 --> 00:16:14,399
We need to get this submarine
up as quickly as possible.
249
00:16:14,892 --> 00:16:15,569
Why?
250
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,943
Because the accused comes in front
of the judge tomorrow morning.
251
00:16:19,095 --> 00:16:19,737
Okay.
252
00:16:21,689 --> 00:16:23,998
It's down 10 metres in
the middle of a strong current.
253
00:16:24,055 --> 00:16:25,371
It weighs probably 60-70 tonnes.
254
00:16:25,827 --> 00:16:26,896
It's full of water.
255
00:16:27,734 --> 00:16:28,989
Can you not get it up?
256
00:16:29,082 --> 00:16:31,497
Yes, we can.
But it won't be easy.
257
00:16:32,575 --> 00:16:33,475
No.
That's life.
258
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:37,378
Indeed.
259
00:16:39,946 --> 00:16:41,257
We will do our best.
260
00:16:52,551 --> 00:16:54,946
The parents of the
journalist, have apparently
261
00:16:54,971 --> 00:16:57,215
seen on TV that we are
charging for murder.
262
00:16:57,282 --> 00:16:58,507
No-one informed them?
263
00:16:59,086 --> 00:17:01,578
No. They thought we were still
looking for her alive.
264
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:03,306
We are.
265
00:17:03,820 --> 00:17:05,994
Yes, but they don't
understand how we can charge
266
00:17:06,019 --> 00:17:08,077
for murder, yet at the same
time look for her alive.
267
00:17:10,930 --> 00:17:13,992
Give them my phone number and tell them they
can call me if they have any questions.
268
00:17:16,234 --> 00:17:17,330
Did you get that?
269
00:17:17,835 --> 00:17:18,652
Yes.
270
00:17:30,717 --> 00:17:31,695
This is Jens Møller.
271
00:17:31,999 --> 00:17:35,004
Hello.
My name is Joachim Wall.
272
00:17:37,037 --> 00:17:39,129
It is my daughter
that is missing.
273
00:17:39,130 --> 00:17:40,379
Yes.
Hello Joachim. Hello.
274
00:17:40,803 --> 00:17:42,143
Do you have time to talk?
275
00:17:42,143 --> 00:17:43,309
Yes. Sure, I do.
276
00:17:44,031 --> 00:17:47,127
We don't quite understand
what you exactly are doing?
277
00:17:48,077 --> 00:17:50,465
You say that he is
suspected of murder.
278
00:17:51,115 --> 00:17:55,846
But at the same time you don't know if
Kim is still alive? What are you doing?
279
00:17:56,428 --> 00:17:58,741
No. It is too early for
us to draw conclusions.
280
00:17:59,131 --> 00:17:59,568
So...
281
00:17:59,683 --> 00:18:00,145
Uhhuu..
282
00:18:01,021 --> 00:18:02,021
Yes, but...
283
00:18:02,568 --> 00:18:05,545
Is she alive or....?
284
00:18:09,095 --> 00:18:11,528
I mean, is there still hope?
285
00:18:17,795 --> 00:18:19,285
Joachim.
Are you still in Copenhagen?
286
00:18:20,629 --> 00:18:23,008
Yes, we are still here.
287
00:18:37,303 --> 00:18:39,041
He has at least not
dropped her off there.
288
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:42,665
Go back again.
289
00:18:55,923 --> 00:18:57,892
When can you and Nicolaj
question him?
290
00:18:58,437 --> 00:19:00,525
His lawyer is coming
in from Jutland so at
291
00:19:00,550 --> 00:19:03,080
earliest this evening or
only tomorrow morning.
292
00:19:04,247 --> 00:19:05,324
Where is Nikolaj now?
293
00:19:05,744 --> 00:19:07,927
He is preparing request
for ongoing detention.
294
00:19:08,507 --> 00:19:10,407
Could you call him and
ask him to come here?
295
00:19:10,730 --> 00:19:11,298
Sure.
296
00:20:05,549 --> 00:20:06,205
Okay.
297
00:20:06,612 --> 00:20:09,212
We fear that she is dead, even
though we still hope for the best.
298
00:20:10,035 --> 00:20:13,205
That she has slept somewhere
in the city last night.
299
00:20:13,755 --> 00:20:14,811
But if she is dead.
300
00:20:15,883 --> 00:20:19,625
Then there are 4 ways that she can have died:
- Natural Death, Accident, Suicide or Murder.
301
00:20:20,066 --> 00:20:21,728
If we focus on Murder,
then there are 7 motives:
302
00:20:21,740 --> 00:20:25,343
Lust, Jealousy, Revenge, Money, Extremism,
Loathing and Excitement.
303
00:20:25,757 --> 00:20:29,499
90% of all murders committed by men against
a woman are due to lust or jealousy.
304
00:20:29,524 --> 00:20:29,900
Mmmmm.
305
00:20:30,012 --> 00:20:33,216
But jealousy requires that the victim and
perpetrator know each other.
306
00:20:34,202 --> 00:20:35,820
That is not the case with lust.
307
00:20:35,845 --> 00:20:37,928
So the key question is:
Did they know each other?
308
00:20:39,639 --> 00:20:41,366
The boyfriend claims
they did not.
309
00:20:41,679 --> 00:20:43,566
However they live only
300 metres from each
310
00:20:43,591 --> 00:20:45,415
other so it wouldn't be
unlikely if they did.
311
00:20:45,418 --> 00:20:50,528
Maybe she lied to him and perhaps
she lived a double life?
312
00:20:50,773 --> 00:20:51,880
We've seen that before.
313
00:20:52,101 --> 00:20:55,177
But are we still fully
excluding the boyfriend?
314
00:20:55,180 --> 00:20:57,963
Yes. His alibi is pretty
strong for the whole evening.
315
00:20:58,171 --> 00:21:02,366
After all she is a journalist, so he is
used to her talking to different people.
316
00:21:02,665 --> 00:21:03,916
Okay.
This is what we know now.
317
00:21:04,384 --> 00:21:06,725
Until we get to question the
suspect and recover the submarine.
318
00:21:06,754 --> 00:21:11,075
I've been told we can start
questioning him at 23.00.
319
00:21:11,610 --> 00:21:12,351
Okay. Very good.
320
00:21:12,815 --> 00:21:14,117
It's gonna be a long night.
321
00:21:14,563 --> 00:21:15,262
Yes.
322
00:21:15,598 --> 00:21:17,778
Maibritt. You need to go to the
harbour tomorrow at 6.30 am and
323
00:21:17,803 --> 00:21:20,182
meet up with LM and the divers and
be on hand with the recovery.
324
00:21:20,236 --> 00:21:22,478
And I will meet with the parents
later and tell them what we know.
325
00:21:22,669 --> 00:21:24,743
Why do you meet them
already tonight?
326
00:21:25,063 --> 00:21:27,405
Because they learned from the press
that we are charging him with murder.
327
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,495
If there is anyone we don't want
as enemies now, then it's them.
328
00:21:31,561 --> 00:21:32,453
Indeed.
329
00:21:34,139 --> 00:21:34,559
Alright?
330
00:21:34,659 --> 00:21:35,122
Yes.
331
00:21:36,445 --> 00:21:37,384
You get the coffee?
332
00:21:38,279 --> 00:21:38,735
Yes, sure.
333
00:21:53,603 --> 00:21:57,136
It is all so strange. The
Swedish police called and
334
00:21:57,161 --> 00:22:00,422
said that everything was
okay with both of them.
335
00:22:01,486 --> 00:22:06,380
And then they call again and say
that it was only him that was safe.
336
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,543
We didn't get it, and we still don't.
337
00:22:09,784 --> 00:22:11,736
What do you think has happened?
338
00:22:13,167 --> 00:22:16,349
I'm afraid it is much too
early to say but we are doing
339
00:22:16,374 --> 00:22:19,100
everything we can to look
for any signs of life.
340
00:22:19,597 --> 00:22:21,495
Have you been into
the submarine?
341
00:22:22,180 --> 00:22:24,513
No.
It is too risky to get into it.
342
00:22:24,940 --> 00:22:26,857
Too risky?
For whom?
343
00:22:27,378 --> 00:22:28,378
For the divers.
344
00:22:29,023 --> 00:22:30,839
They say the entrance
is far to narrow.
345
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,732
If you can climb in and out, then
surely you can swim into it.
346
00:22:35,161 --> 00:22:38,818
I.. I can promise you that we are
doing everything we possibly can.
347
00:22:39,548 --> 00:22:42,667
We are looking to recover the
submarine tomorrow morning.
348
00:22:44,058 --> 00:22:45,714
Do you think she is inside?
349
00:22:48,855 --> 00:22:50,308
We really don't know.
350
00:22:53,154 --> 00:22:56,107
But you suspect him of murder?
351
00:22:57,178 --> 00:22:59,518
Well, that is more of a technicality.
352
00:22:59,755 --> 00:23:03,007
If you are arrested in Denmark,
then you have to be charged.
353
00:23:03,797 --> 00:23:06,777
And if we don't charge, then we
have to let them go. That's why.
354
00:23:07,243 --> 00:23:08,592
So, there is still hope?
355
00:23:09,118 --> 00:23:09,726
Yes.
356
00:23:10,411 --> 00:23:11,373
Until we...
357
00:23:12,955 --> 00:23:14,743
Until there is no clear
proof otherwise.
358
00:23:14,929 --> 00:23:15,991
Then there is hope.
359
00:23:20,584 --> 00:23:25,953
There is one thing I have been wondering
about. How the hell can it sink?
360
00:23:27,316 --> 00:23:28,441
That we don't know.
361
00:23:30,183 --> 00:23:33,280
How can a submarine sink?
362
00:23:35,175 --> 00:23:37,500
I think we will find out
a lot tomorrow morning.
363
00:23:42,996 --> 00:23:45,404
I was a diver myself
in the old days.
364
00:23:46,435 --> 00:23:51,281
And a good friend of mine is a
diver and knows Øresund very well.
365
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,443
So if there is anything we can help
with, then please let me know.
366
00:23:57,131 --> 00:23:58,091
Yes.
Thank you.
367
00:23:58,913 --> 00:23:59,770
That's good for us to know.
368
00:24:01,379 --> 00:24:02,496
Do you have children?
369
00:24:04,935 --> 00:24:05,960
Yes. I do
370
00:24:06,950 --> 00:24:09,726
But, if there is anything else.
Whatever it may
371
00:24:09,751 --> 00:24:12,138
be. Then please do
not hesitate to call.
372
00:24:16,238 --> 00:24:17,647
Find my daughter!
373
00:24:26,502 --> 00:24:28,886
Just...Find her.
374
00:24:33,205 --> 00:24:34,574
Thanks for giving us your time.
375
00:24:35,599 --> 00:24:36,617
Yes, of course.
376
00:25:32,408 --> 00:25:33,472
Hello, to the two of you.
377
00:25:34,295 --> 00:25:35,442
Hello, to the two of you.
378
00:25:42,532 --> 00:25:43,034
Hello.
379
00:25:43,091 --> 00:25:43,756
Hi there.
380
00:25:44,314 --> 00:25:45,356
Hello.
Welcome.
381
00:25:45,639 --> 00:25:46,437
Good to see you.
382
00:25:47,549 --> 00:25:48,299
Hi my love.
383
00:25:48,374 --> 00:25:48,853
Hi Dad.
384
00:25:50,656 --> 00:25:51,443
It's been awhile.
385
00:25:51,543 --> 00:25:52,123
Yes.
386
00:25:54,458 --> 00:25:55,462
Do you want a glass?
387
00:25:55,561 --> 00:25:56,650
Yes, please.
388
00:25:57,228 --> 00:25:58,089
Have you looked around?
389
00:25:58,089 --> 00:25:58,449
Yes.
390
00:25:59,474 --> 00:26:00,584
It's a lovely place.
391
00:26:01,903 --> 00:26:02,685
It's big, isn't it?
392
00:26:02,695 --> 00:26:03,045
Yeah.
393
00:26:03,956 --> 00:26:05,162
We pushed the boat out a bit.
394
00:26:14,833 --> 00:26:17,492
Well, there is
actually something..
395
00:26:17,646 --> 00:26:20,010
That I...
Well, we would really would...
396
00:26:20,222 --> 00:26:21,070
like to...
tell you..
397
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:22,775
Hi Nikolaj.
398
00:26:26,531 --> 00:26:26,961
I see.
399
00:26:28,980 --> 00:26:29,659
Okay.
400
00:26:30,989 --> 00:26:31,985
How is he?
401
00:26:35,124 --> 00:26:37,616
How does he explain that we
can't see her on the CCTV?
402
00:26:38,807 --> 00:26:39,381
Okay.
403
00:26:41,356 --> 00:26:42,839
When do you expect
to finish with him?
404
00:26:44,676 --> 00:26:45,477
Alright.
Bye.
405
00:26:48,048 --> 00:26:48,848
Yes?
406
00:26:57,249 --> 00:26:58,249
Yes.
Well...
407
00:27:00,133 --> 00:27:02,122
Well, what we wanted to say
408
00:27:02,134 --> 00:27:03,134
is that....
409
00:27:08,606 --> 00:27:11,618
I am pregnant..
and you're going to be a Grandad.
410
00:27:17,012 --> 00:27:18,012
Seriously?
411
00:27:23,736 --> 00:27:24,438
Well...
412
00:27:26,719 --> 00:27:28,170
Wow, that is fantastic.
413
00:27:28,808 --> 00:27:29,639
Yes, it is.
414
00:27:30,384 --> 00:27:32,285
How long are you gone?
Umm. When?
415
00:27:32,306 --> 00:27:34,347
It's actually in February.
416
00:27:35,069 --> 00:27:36,109
Yes, gone 12 weeks.
417
00:27:36,188 --> 00:27:36,936
Yeah.
418
00:27:37,794 --> 00:27:38,825
Oh sorry.
I don't know..
419
00:27:38,964 --> 00:27:40,281
But why didn't you
tell me sooner?
420
00:27:40,281 --> 00:27:43,738
Well.. you know...
Oh.. I wanted to... but
421
00:27:44,333 --> 00:27:46,216
Well you know.
We wanted to do the first scan..
422
00:27:46,216 --> 00:27:46,983
Yeah.
423
00:27:49,065 --> 00:27:49,720
Sorry, all.
424
00:27:50,230 --> 00:27:51,187
Nikolaj, what's up?
425
00:27:53,407 --> 00:27:54,423
Yes?
426
00:28:13,347 --> 00:28:13,735
Yes.
427
00:28:13,740 --> 00:28:15,985
Maibritt goes with them tomorrow
to raise the submarine.
428
00:28:16,030 --> 00:28:17,209
And then we see what happens.
429
00:28:17,213 --> 00:28:17,813
Okay.
430
00:28:35,758 --> 00:28:37,158
Oh, did they leave?
431
00:28:38,660 --> 00:28:39,259
Yes.
432
00:28:48,819 --> 00:28:50,026
Have you seen Jens?
433
00:28:50,051 --> 00:28:50,661
No.
434
00:28:52,522 --> 00:28:58,825
Day 2
12ᵗʰ August 2017
435
00:29:01,421 --> 00:29:01,820
Jens!
436
00:29:02,423 --> 00:29:02,767
Yes?
437
00:29:03,127 --> 00:29:04,752
He has asked to be
re-interviewed.
438
00:29:06,776 --> 00:29:07,364
When?
439
00:29:07,415 --> 00:29:07,809
Now.
440
00:29:07,812 --> 00:29:09,176
Before going in-front
of the judge.
441
00:29:09,330 --> 00:29:11,832
The detention request has been
pushed to this afternoon, but when he
442
00:29:11,857 --> 00:29:14,759
heard that we are lifting the submarine
he requested to be re-interviewed.
443
00:29:16,081 --> 00:29:18,838
He said that if we recover
the submarine then
444
00:29:18,863 --> 00:29:21,662
there was something he
should better tell us now.
445
00:29:22,162 --> 00:29:22,762
Okay.
446
00:29:23,543 --> 00:29:25,110
They are bringing him here now.
447
00:29:26,134 --> 00:29:27,856
We have prepared room #5.
448
00:31:09,020 --> 00:31:09,741
He has...
449
00:31:10,552 --> 00:31:12,119
just explained that...
450
00:31:13,383 --> 00:31:14,783
she is dead.
451
00:31:19,679 --> 00:31:20,714
How did it happen?
452
00:31:20,739 --> 00:31:22,964
Well apparently,
there was an accident.
453
00:31:23,185 --> 00:31:25,067
The hatch of the submarine
hit her on the head.
454
00:31:28,519 --> 00:31:29,105
Right!
455
00:31:39,869 --> 00:31:41,207
So her body is in the submarine?
456
00:31:41,334 --> 00:31:41,975
No.
457
00:31:42,904 --> 00:31:45,880
He said that he gave
her a 'burial at sea.'
458
00:31:46,984 --> 00:31:48,011
He did what?
459
00:31:48,496 --> 00:31:49,819
'Burial at sea.'
460
00:31:50,259 --> 00:31:52,672
As in, disposing of her
body into the sea.
461
00:31:56,733 --> 00:31:57,844
How was he when he said it?
462
00:31:59,348 --> 00:32:00,971
Hmm, very calmly.
463
00:32:02,698 --> 00:32:05,002
So, he didn't seem
overly upset about it?
464
00:32:08,058 --> 00:32:10,546
No.
Not really.
465
00:32:12,013 --> 00:32:12,825
Okay.
466
00:32:13,626 --> 00:32:17,738
But, how did he exactly word it?
What had happened?
467
00:32:18,233 --> 00:32:18,746
Here.
468
00:32:22,013 --> 00:32:26,571
They climbed up to the bridge to
get some fresh air. He went ahead
469
00:32:26,596 --> 00:32:30,745
and when she came up the hatch
fell by accident onto her head.
470
00:32:31,368 --> 00:32:34,023
He heard something fall down to
the bottom of the submarine.
471
00:32:34,781 --> 00:32:39,051
And when he finally managed to open
the hatch again he saw that she was
472
00:32:39,076 --> 00:32:43,048
lying in a pool of blood at the
bottom of the sub. He climbed down
473
00:32:43,696 --> 00:32:47,970
and saw that she was so badly
injured that she would not survive.
474
00:32:49,037 --> 00:32:50,333
He saw that she would not survive?
475
00:32:50,358 --> 00:32:53,826
Yes. It was all so horrible
that he had decided
476
00:32:53,851 --> 00:32:56,558
to sail out to sea
and commit suicide.
477
00:32:57,204 --> 00:33:00,068
On the way, he had come to his
senses and wanted instead
478
00:33:00,093 --> 00:33:02,705
to go home and say goodbye
to his cats and his wife.
479
00:33:02,975 --> 00:33:04,108
Okay.
Stop now!
480
00:33:05,489 --> 00:33:06,814
How did the submarine sink?
481
00:33:07,100 --> 00:33:08,508
That he gave no explanation of.
482
00:33:09,694 --> 00:33:12,261
Why didn't he try to save her?
Why didn't he call for help?
483
00:33:12,261 --> 00:33:15,827
Because it was like everything was over.
He had lost everything.
484
00:33:21,241 --> 00:33:23,670
Did he say anything about
where we may find her body?
485
00:33:23,695 --> 00:33:29,660
Yes... He said that he had thrown her
body in the sea somewhere in Køge Bay.
486
00:33:34,260 --> 00:33:35,206
Okay, tell me again.
487
00:33:36,809 --> 00:33:38,207
Why did he throw
her into the sea?
488
00:33:38,446 --> 00:33:42,387
Well, because it was all so horrible and
it was the only way for it to go away.
489
00:33:44,715 --> 00:33:45,557
Yeah!
490
00:33:49,524 --> 00:33:50,382
What are you thinking?
491
00:33:56,442 --> 00:33:59,080
I think he has come up with
a story to explain why
492
00:33:59,105 --> 00:34:01,504
we most likely will find
blood in the submarine.
493
00:34:02,113 --> 00:34:04,677
And why the body will
have head injuries.
494
00:34:06,838 --> 00:34:07,993
We say it is murder.
495
00:34:08,785 --> 00:34:10,166
He claims it's an accident.
496
00:34:11,267 --> 00:34:13,163
Is that what he is going to
say at the detention hearing?
497
00:34:13,163 --> 00:34:14,463
Yes.
I would think so.
498
00:34:19,063 --> 00:34:22,089
Then I think we best talk to Swedish police
and get them to talk to the parents.
499
00:34:22,096 --> 00:34:24,493
They need to know that
most likely she is dead.
500
00:34:24,978 --> 00:34:26,574
Before it becomes
public knowledge.
501
00:34:27,178 --> 00:34:27,818
Yes.
502
00:34:29,383 --> 00:34:32,511
Well, we need to wait and see
what we learn from the submarine.
503
00:35:35,127 --> 00:35:35,637
No.
504
00:35:36,116 --> 00:35:37,987
It's unfortunately not
as easy as we had hoped.
505
00:35:38,570 --> 00:35:42,069
The problem is that the sub simply weighs too
much for the crane to lift it all the way.
506
00:35:42,617 --> 00:35:45,394
The first attempt failed due to
change in the weather conditions.
507
00:35:48,154 --> 00:35:48,939
Yes.
508
00:36:46,766 --> 00:36:48,118
Just back from the court.
509
00:36:49,413 --> 00:36:50,657
Negligent homicide.
510
00:36:51,698 --> 00:36:53,789
4 weeks detention
on negligent homicide.
511
00:36:56,503 --> 00:36:57,285
What did he say?
512
00:36:57,393 --> 00:36:58,465
That it was an accident.
513
00:36:59,599 --> 00:37:00,535
Did the judge believe him?
514
00:37:00,536 --> 00:37:01,090
No.
515
00:37:02,053 --> 00:37:05,073
But I do not have any evidence
to the contrary right now.
516
00:37:11,151 --> 00:37:12,735
What if he is actually
telling the truth?
517
00:37:13,826 --> 00:37:15,191
Maybe it was just an accident.
518
00:37:17,112 --> 00:37:19,051
What would you do if you
were driving with a
519
00:37:19,076 --> 00:37:21,000
journalist in your car
and she suddenly died?
520
00:37:25,667 --> 00:37:26,216
I don't know.
521
00:37:28,145 --> 00:37:29,113
No.
522
00:37:31,490 --> 00:37:34,659
But you wouldn't throw her body
in a ditch, drive your car
523
00:37:34,684 --> 00:37:37,898
into the sea and then go home
to say goodbye to your cats.
524
00:37:39,023 --> 00:37:39,544
No.
525
00:37:42,568 --> 00:37:44,610
Is there anything new
regarding Ronnie Askov?
526
00:37:45,509 --> 00:37:47,737
We have decided not to
appeal to the high court.
527
00:37:48,435 --> 00:37:50,261
It looks like he will walk.
528
00:38:02,937 --> 00:38:04,174
We are ready to try again.
529
00:38:21,550 --> 00:38:23,185
We are ready to lift!
530
00:38:23,791 --> 00:38:25,073
Everyone, look out.
