He is also charged with a misdemeanor. Møller should have made several announcements in the police case management system, Polsas, without having an official reason for it.
– I can say that I deny guilt in all circumstances. I do not think that I have broken my duty of confidentiality, it sounds from Jens Møller.
The prosecution believes that Møller should be fined, and Møller is ready to take the consequence if it should end with a verdict.
– Of course I’m really sorry to get in this situation. I had not expected that when I started on the book. But if I have violated something, then I, like everyone else, must be held accountable for it, he says.
The accusations against Møller are that he should have broken the law in connection with a number of specific cases. He will not comment on the cases in question, but emphasizes that this is not the Submarine case.
Jens Møller became seriously nationally known in connection with the investigation into the murder of the Swedish journalist Kim Wall. She was killed by the now life-sentenced Peter Madsen in his submarine “Nautilus” back in 2017.
Last year, a TV series was made about the case, “The Investigation”, in which actor Søren Malling played the role of Jens Møller.
Møller was also head of homicide – or rather head of the department for dangerous crime – when the culture house Krudttønden and the synagogue in Copenhagen were attacked in February 2015.
In addition, he has been the head of investigation of a number of major criminal cases.
But in the autumn of 2018, Jens Møller was moved as head of the department for personal crime to a less prominent position as head of the department for enrichment crime.
It later turned out to be connected with the fact that the management of the Copenhagen Police had asked the Independent Police Complaints Authority to investigate a number of matters in connection with the publication of the book.
A few months later, Jens Møller chose to stop in the police altogether.
– I’m not bitter. The management of the Copenhagen Police could not do anything else on the basis of the articles that were written after the book was published, than to ask the police appeals authority to investigate it, says Jens Møller.
He says that he was initially questioned about 32 points of suspicion, but that charges were only brought in six cases. And four of these charges have thus resulted in an indictment.
That it should come to the point at all that he now, after 37 years in the police, is in the role of accused, what he did not imagine.
– I think I have written a book in a way that I did not violate current rules. I think I did what I was supposed to.
Jens Møller is now employed by TV2 as an expert commentator within the police and judicial area.
In addition, he is a co-owner of the company True Crime Agency, which runs the author and lecture business.
The company is also owned by, among others, journalist Stine Bolther, with whom Jens Møller wrote the book. Among the owners is also Jakob Buch-Jepsen, who was a prosecutor in the Submarine case in the city court, and who is now a lawyer in Koch / Christensen Advokatfirma.
