挪威王储妃梅特-马里特的长子马吕斯·博格·霍伊比周一被判强奸罪等两项罪名及另外32项罪名成立，获刑四年。
法庭认定他面临的四项强奸指控中的两项罪名成立，另外两项无罪。
他还被判定犯有袭击罪和亲密关系虐待罪。除监禁刑罚外，霍伊比还被勒令向受害者支付赔偿金。
现年29岁的霍伊比被控在2018年至2024年间性侵四名处于熟睡或其他无法反抗状态的女性。
他总共面临40项刑事指控，其中包括袭击、涉毒犯罪以及违反限制令等较轻罪名。
霍伊比否认了强奸指控，但承认了数项较轻的罪名。
检方曾要求奥斯陆地方法院判处他七年零七个月监禁，而辩方律师则主张他应就强奸指控无罪释放，仅就其承认的罪名判处不超过18个月的监禁。
该判决尚未生效，霍伊比可以上诉。
“考虑到他被定罪且并未认罪的严重指控提起上诉是理所当然的，”辩护律师埃伦·霍拉格·安登内斯告诉法新社。

检察官斯特鲁拉·亨里克博称该判决“是我们司法系统的胜利”，并告诉法新社：“这表明，无论你是谁，也无论你与谁有亲属关系，都没有人能凌驾于法律之上。”
霍伊比因健康原因未出庭受审，他通过视频链接从监狱观看了判决宣读。
这场为期六周的审判于今年3月结束，期间有多名指控者出庭作证，并提交了包括霍伊比手机中的短信、图片和视频在内的证据。
这起案件因霍伊比与王室的关系引发了国际社会的广泛关注，王室也因此陷入尴尬。霍伊比是梅特-马里特在与挪威王储哈康结婚前所生的儿子，哈康是挪威王位的推定继承人。尽管霍伊比由这对王室夫妇抚养长大，并在未来国王的家庭中长大，但他并没有继兄弟姐妹那样的官方公职或王室头衔。

随着案件的推进，梅特-马里特的健康状况不断恶化。这位患有肺纤维化、正在等待肺移植的王储妃，成为了围绕其子在判决前是否应获得临时释放的法律争议的核心人物。上诉法院裁定，霍伊比在等待判决期间应继续被羁押。
此次审判之际，正值外界对王室的 renewed scrutiny（重新审视）升温，此前有消息披露梅特-马里特过去与已故性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦有过接触。她已公开为这段关联道歉，并表示自己与爱泼斯坦保持联系是判断失误。她并未被指控有任何不当行为。
Norway crown princess’s son convicted of rape, sentenced to 4 years in prison

Marius Borg Hoiby, the eldest son of Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit, was sentenced to four years in prison Monday after being convicted of two counts of rape and 32 other offenses.
He was found guilty of two of the four rape charges he was facing and acquitted of the other two.
He was also convicted of assault and abuse in close relationships. In addition to the prison sentence, Hoiby was ordered to pay compensation to the victims.
Hoiby, 29, had been charged with sexually assaulting four women who were asleep or otherwise unable to resist between 2018 and 2024.
He faced a total of 40 criminal charges, including some for lesser offenses, such as assault, drug-related crimes and violations of a restraining order.
Hoiby had denied the rape allegations but admitted to several of the lesser offenses.
Prosecutors had asked Oslo District Court to sentence him to seven years and seven months in prison, while defense lawyers had argued that he should be acquitted of the rape allegations and receive no more than 18 months for offenses he had admitted to.
The sentence is not final and Hoiby can appeal.
“It is only natural to consider appealing the serious charges for which he was convicted and which he did not admit,” defense lawyer Ellen Holager Andenaes told AFP.

The prosecutor, Sturla Henriksbo, called the verdict “a victory for our justice system” and told AFP that it “shows that no one is beyond the law, despite who you are and who you are related to.”
Hoiby was not present in court on Monday because of health reasons. He watched the reading of the verdict via a video link from prison.
The six-week trial concluded in March after testimony from multiple accusers and presentation of evidence, including messages, images and videos from Hoiby’s cellphone.
The case has generated intense international attention because of Hoiby’s connection to the royal family, who have been embarrassed by it. Hoiby is Mette-Marit’s son from a relationship she had prior to marrying Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon, the heir apparent to the country’s throne. Although he was raised by the royal couple and grew up in the household of the future king, Hoiby doesn’t have an official public role or royal title, as his step-siblings do.

Mette-Marit’s health has deteriorated as the case has drawn on. The crown princess, who has pulmonary fibrosis and is awaiting a lung transplant, has been at the center of legal arguments over whether her son should be granted temporary release from custody before the verdict. Appeals courts ruled that Hoiby should remain detained while awaiting judgment.
The trial has also unfolded amid renewed scrutiny of the royal family following disclosures about Mette-Marit’s past contacts with Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased sex offender. She has publicly apologized for the association and said she exercised poor judgment in maintaining contact with him. She isn’t accused of any wrongdoing.
