[3] On Saturday August 3, 2013, Linn Madelen Bråthen, age 33, was found dead on the shores of Sandøya.
[5] CCTV footage of the suspect together with Bråthen walking towards the bridge the night she died caused suspicion.
The suspect was eventually charged with first-degree murder as the police thought he had pushed or thrown Bråthen off the bridge.
Due to a lack of evidence the charge was changed to leaving Bråthen helpless, which lead to her death.
[6] In Lower Telemark district court, the suspect was found guilty and sentenced to 3 years in prison.
