OSLO, Norway (AP) — The eldest son of Norway's crown princess was back in court on Wednesday for Day Two of a trial at which he is facing allegations of multiple alleged offenses, including rape. Marius Borg Høiby, 29, pleaded not guilty to the most serious charges as the seven-week trial opened on Tuesday. He is the first son of Crown Princess Mette-Marit from a previous relationship and the stepson of the heir to the throne, Prince Haakon.
