The statement given by Trausti Einarsson,
confirms the testimony of Ívar Kristjánsson
about what transpired during his interrogation.
You will have no further involvement with the investigation
and the use of excessive force will be noted on your permanent record.
You will be suspended from the Metropolitan Police,
but the police commissioner
has recommended you for an open position at Siglufjörður.
As long as you pass the psychological evaluation.
Let me know if you want me to take over.
Nah, I'm good.
Hello, Ísak. You're on speaker.
Yeah, hello. Listen, I'm trying to reach Trausti.
Yes, I'm here. Go ahead.
We managed to track Kristján's phone.
And he seems to have been, uh-- One moment.
Morning.
He seems to have been near Höfði.
His phone went off right after he made the trip up.
How long was it off?
Around 12 hours.
Then it's turned on again at 10:00 in the morning.
At that time, he's detected in Garðabær.
Then he's back home.
Thanks so much, Ísak. Later.
No problem. Bye.
He had the time to do it.
He could've driven up north and back.
I never thought it could've been him.
No.
POLICE STATION
Did he have a reason for killing his son?
They were estranged. Something must've happened.
He obviously has something to hide.
They're already up here. I saw Kristján and Magdalena at the hotel today.
Let's go talk to him.
Uh, let's not forget that you two are on suspension.
You're not allowed to be a part of this investigation.
Does he know about it?
No, I don't think he's in the loop on that.
Hinrika. You ask the questions. We'll just observe.
Then we won't be breaking any rules.
At least not as blatant.
Okay, I'll ask the questions and you two observe.
Haraldur. Can you finish the paperwork for Hopper?
Yep.
-Hello. -Hello.
Are you alone?
Yes, the girls went over to the pharmacy. Uh, what can I do for you?
Can we talk for a minute?
Yeah, yeah. Sure. Come in. I'll get dressed.
I know this doesn't look good.
No, it doesn't.
The idea that I would hurt my son like that is preposterous.
Where were you on the night of your son's murder?
-At work. -At work?
Yes, I have an office near Höfði. You can look it up.
-KG Contractors. -Why were you working so late?
I was finishing an estimate. We made a proposal on a big project.
How come your phone was off?
What about my phone?
You turned your phone off shortly after being there.
Have you been tracking my phone?
The battery went dead.
If you were at work and you have nothing to hide,
then why did you tell the police that you were at home that night?
I mixed up the dates. I'm very busy.
That's a day I think would be hard to forget.
Like I said before, I was finishing the cost estimate.
Late into the night.
The girls were sleeping when I got home.
Can anyone confirm that?
Are there any security cameras there?
No, nothing like that.
Thank you for picking me up.
I never would've found the way from the airport.
Yeah, no problem.
Have you been there before? To that… What's it called?
-Ásar. -Yeah.
No.
Hi.
Hey, man.
Can I talk to you?
-Here? -Sure.
Yeah.
We can sit here.
It's good you're here.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Any news from Hopper?
No. Fortunately, no.
He killed Sverrir.
I know.
Were you involved in it?
No. Of course not.
He betrayed us all.
Got me arrested.
I was being interrogated when it happened.
We never should've gotten involved with him.
It was me who sent Sverrir here.
I'm gonna hurry over to Ásar. To get there on time.
Trausti and I are not going up there.
No, definitely not.
So we just sit here on our asses, doing nothing?
I'll let you know if there's any new developments.
-Haraldur? I'll see you there? -Mm-hmm. Just finishing up. I'll be there.
-Good luck. -Thanks.
-Hello. -Hello.
Good morning.
That's quite the feast.
Yeah, for the service today.
We're going to a funeral.
Yes, of course. My name is Hinrika. I've taken over the investigation.
My sincere condolences.
-Thanks. -Thank you.
-Hi. -Hi. Are you going to the funeral?
Yes, I was thinking of going to the funeral, if that's okay with you.
Yeah, that's fine.
Eva, get in the car, honey.
Magdalena,
I was hoping we could have a chat in private.
Now?
Yes, we could, uh, drive up there together.
Have a chat in the car on the way over.
-Yeah. -Great.
I'll see you there.
SECURITAS
Hey. I'm just popping out.
So, I took your advice and went to see my mother.
Well done.
And was she happy to see you?
Sure, I think so.
Glad to hear it.
We shouldn't take it for granted that we feel connected to our loved ones.
No.
Clear something up for me.
I thought that you were suspended from this murder investigation?
Uh, don't tell me you came all the way up north
just to drink coffee with this old geezer.
No.
The father of the boy who was murdered lied about his alibi.
Said he was at home all evening, but that was a lie.
I was hoping you could help us.
How can I help you?
I remember you saying that you had a contact at Securitas
who helped you solve some old insurance fraud cases.
Uh, yeah.
-Go-- Goði. That's it. -Yeah?
Anyway, the boy's father has an office right by Höfði.
He says he was there.
There are no witnesses and no security footage.
But across the street from his office, there's a car dealership.
And it looks to me like they've got cameras from Securitas.
And I was hoping they might have one pointed across the street.
It's been a while since I have spoken with him.
I can check to see if he's still working there.
Have you and Kristján been together a long time?
Mm-hmm. Yeah, it's, uh, our 30-year anniversary this summer.
Thirty years. That's a long time.
We've got children, a home, a company.
Some couples divorce after the kids leave home.
Mm-hmm.
Did you want to talk about something specific?
I wanted to know why you didn't tell the truth about Kristján's whereabouts
at the time of your son's murder.
We know he wasn't at home all night.
He was captured on a red light camera.
Possibly leaving the city.
Where was he going?
Well, he-- He had to go to the office.
He'd left something.
And when he was asked his whereabouts, he forgot and said he was at home.
Why didn't you correct him?
Well, uh… I completely froze.
I… I was burned
after what had happened last time with Ívar.
He was kept in custody for many days.
You're talking about the case with Lína a few years back?
Yes.
Hmm.
Lína wasn't quite the angel some make her out to be.
Oh? What do you mean?
She had a dark side.
She had no self-control.
Yes. Yes, hold on, he-- He's here. He wants to talk to you.
Hello.
So, can you see across?
Yes, partially.
There was a lot of traffic there that Friday night.
People coming and going.
Okay, can you send me the footage?
Yeah, sure.
You can email it to andriolafs@gmail.
You should get it shortly.
Okay, great. Thank you so much.
Bye.
He's sending it.
Yeah, look. There's Kristján.
Fast-forward a bit.
-Here comes another car. -Yes.
Is that him? Bergur?
Looks like it. That's his car at least.
They go inside.
What's he doing?
Wait, he's smashing his phone. That's why the phone went dead.
Mm-hmm.
Is everything all right?
Yup.
How did you know Ívar?
I was his girlfriend.
Ívar was like a son to me.
And to my son, he was like a brother.
I will be eternally grateful to my Gunnar, for introducing me
to the unfailing life force that Ívar carried with him.
And even though we do not all share the same views…
-What's going on? -…we see this as a symbol…
We have a video.
It shows Kristján,
and it looks like Bergur, arguing at his office.
What's he doing there?
Didn't the girl from the bar say he was there all night?
Yes.
Let's confirm this with Kristján. I'll get him.
Say it with me.
"Cattle die, kindred die,
as you yourself shall die,
but the good name will never die of him who has earned it."
Kristján, can you step outside?
-Now? -Mm-hmm.
Could I ask that you respect the deceased
and hold off with all this until we are finished with the wake?
-All right? -It's okay.
Carry on without me.
Can't we do this somewhere else?
Yeah. Follow me.
In here. We can use Ívar's room.
Who's with you there?
It's Bergur, right?
Yes.
Why did he smash your phone?
Shouldn't you just ask him that?
Kristján, I'm asking you.
Why did he smash your phone?
You two finish this, we'll go find Bergur.
Go to the assembly hall and see if Bergur's there.
-I'll check the caves. -Okay.
I wasn't the one who started this.
Start what, exactly?
We spent a night together.
Who's that?
Lína and I.
Lína? You slept with Lína? Your son's girlfriend?
They had been out, partying.
Ívar was plastered as usual and fell asleep.
Where was this?
At our house. I was drunk when they came home.
We… started talking
and had more red wine and then…
I don't know how it happened. We only did it once.
-Did you kill her? -No.
No. I never saw her again after that.
Did Ívar know?
No, he didn't.
And Bergur? Did he know?
Yeah. Mm, she told him about it.
Sóley?
You're Sóley, right? You came with Bergur?
Yes.
Where is he?
I don't know. I saw him in the cave.
Why did you lie about Bergur's whereabouts the night of Ívar's murder?
You know you could go to jail for giving false testimony.
Where was he?
Um, he was taking care of some important business.
What kind of business?
You know he's a dealer.
So you lied for him like it was nothing?
He paid me for it.
Then what?
Did he tell anyone about it?
We made a deal.
I paid him around
three or four million krone a year to keep quiet.
What happened between you at your office?
Bergur was into some racket.
A drug racket?
I have no idea.
He needed more money.
A lot more.
Twenty million in one payment.
And you didn't have that.
Twenty million, without notice?
I… I couldn't have paid, even if I wanted to.
He…
He said he was going to destroy me.
And after that? Do you know where he went?
No.
The next thing I heard was that…
…Ívar was found dead.
And you never suspected he went up north to kill him?
And how was I supposed to think of that?
All that mattered to you
was that nobody found out you slept with her.
Magdalena, I'm sorry.
Why ask about this now?
Has it got something to do with Ívar's murder?
Wait here.
Bergur?
Where's Hinrika?
She went to the cave.
Bergur!
Where are you going? Bergur, wait!
Bergur, wait. Wait a minute, I need to talk to you.
-Haraldur. -Hello? Hinrika?
If you see Bergur, catch him.
-Where are you going? -Fuck!
Bergur!
Wait, Bergur!
Did you have something to do with Ívar's murder?
Get the hell out.
-Did you kill Ívar? -Get out of the fucking car!
Bergur!
-Bergur! Hey! -Help!
He's got a gun!
We need backup. He's armed and he's got Sóley in the car.
I've already asked for roadblocks.
They should try and cut him off before he reaches the bridge.
We live on a fucking island, he's not getting away.
He's unstable
and we have to stop him before he hurts her.
Stop the car. Please.
Please. I'm begging you. Stop the car.
Let me out. Now.
-Stop the car. -Shut up.
-Stop the car. -Shut the fuck up!
-Let me out, please! -Shut up or I'll fucking shoot you.
Seriously. Seriously!
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. No. Fuck!
Let me out.
Think you're leaving? No, you're fucking not.
Andri! What are you doing? Andri!
Hey! Hey!
Don't come any closer! Or I'll shoot her!
Bergur. Bergur.
Talk to me. Bergur. Bergur!
Let her go. We'll let you drive off, okay?
He deserved it.
Who deserved what?
Kristján was screwing my sister.
We knew that guy when we were kids. He's fucking disgusting.
Did you drive up north after talking with him that night?
To tell Ívar what happened?
Kristján destroyed her life and I was going to destroy his.
What are you doing here?
-Bergur, what the fuck are you doing here? -Okay, I just have to tell you.
Lína and your dad slept together.
Why do you think we broke up?
You knew that?
Don't you remember anything?
She told me the night when you hit the kid and drove off.
I came over to your place to help you
and there she was, she kept on about it,
claiming she'd been drunk and that my dad hit on her.
And you, crying like a fucking bitch, man.
And blacked out.
Ívar, are you telling me that you are the murderer?
She fucking deserved it.
She was a fucking slut.
Why didn't you tell the police about this?
It wouldn't have mattered. She'd still be dead.
At least Ívar would've gone to prison.
Really? I think you would've fucked it all up again!
It's your fault that he got away with murdering my sister.
And it's your fault that Sverrir is dead.
If you hadn't fucked it all up, none if this would've happened.
Lína is dead.
Sverrir is dead.
I've got nothing to live for anymore.
Okay. Bergur.
Shoot me.
-Or I'll kill her! -Bergur!
She hasn't done anything to anybody.
-Come on, you're not going to shoot-- -Shoot me.
-You don't have to do this. -Shoot me.
-Bergur! -Shoot me!
-Come on! -Shoot me!
Bergur!
No! Bergur!
Are you okay?
It's all right.
The Reykjavík district court is in session.
Case number S-1090/2021.
The People vs. Andri Ólafsson.
The defendant is charged with a violation of penal code section 23,
involving manslaughter and bodily harm.
Even though the defendant is a member of the Metropolitan Police force,
he was not on active duty on the night in question
as he had been suspended
from the investigation of this particular case.
Therefore, his offence cannot be defended by police laws in any way.
Furthermore, his previous history should be taken into account,
as he was found guilty of misconduct in 2013
after having used excessive force during an interrogation
in a case connected to this one.
But the victim then was close to the deceased.
And you arrived on the scene after the defendant.
Yes.
And what happened on the bridge between the defendant and the deceased?
Andri was forced to shoot him.
Bergur would've killed her.
He saved the girl's life.
You testified against Andri eight years ago.
Yes.
Have you ever witnessed him using excessive force since then?
No.
Not even on that bridge?
No.
So, by your assessment,
it was necessary for him to shoot that man?
Yes, it was necessary.
I'd like to use this opportunity
to apologize to Andri for testifying against him that time.
He was right.
I was wrong.
Ívar was the one who killed Lína.
I made a huge mistake eight years ago during my work as a police officer.
And now three young men are dead.
I have failed in this case.
And I have no justification for my actions.
So I'm ready to face the consequences.
According to the testimony presented here today,
it seems evident that the defendant saved a young woman's life
when she was threatened with a firearm.
However, the court cannot overlook the fact
that other police officers were present at the scene, who could've stepped in.
Furthermore, it is important to note
that the defendant was not authorized to carry a firearm at the time.
Therefore, the court finds him guilty of manslaughter.
Place all personal items in the basket.
Yeah.
Could I make one short phone call?
-Hi. -Hi, Andri.
I just want to call you.
Good to hear from you.
I had promised…
…to call you more often.
Hey, listen.
I'm going to be taking some time off.
Oh, yeah. I read about it in the paper.
Two years. Is there anything I can do for you?
I'm okay. Don't you worry about that.
-Andri? -Yes.
I am proud of you.
Thanks, Mom.
It's good to hear that from you.
Now try to get some rest.
Okay.
Bye.
