The ongoing court case against Marius Borg Høiby has garnered significant media interest. During a recent session, one of the women affected by the case criticized how the media has handled its coverage, describing her feelings of invasion and discomfort. She indicated that the extent of public interest in her identity and the proceedings had taken her by surprise, reinforcing her sense of being scrutinized.

The emotional toll on the woman has been exacerbated by the attention from journalists and the public.
