PR strategy from end to end’: Høiby blasts influencer photo as explosive audio rocks court

A controversial “pose photo” posted by Sophie Elise Isachsen becomes central to the trial as Marius Borg Høiby claims it was deliberate PR, not an accident, and describes it as a crisis for his family. In court, he admits smashing phones, throwing one “into a thousand pieces,” and having a long-standing anger problem, but denies strangulation and assault allegations tied to the Alta incident. Jurors hear audio in which he shouts abuse and says, “I grabbed you really f---ing hard,” while Nora Haukland is heard pleading, “Don’t strangle me.” Høiby insists the relationship was mutually volatile, says he feels “extremely used,” and defends his parents as proceedings fall behind schedule.
