Shot to Pieces in His Car for Killing 700 Jews – Brutal End of Norwegian Nazi Collaborator-ZZ

Oslo, February 8, 1945.

Winter blankets the Norwegian capital in thick snow and somber light.

On the road leading through the Blindon district, a black car moves slowly.

The wheels grind against the hard ice, emitting a dry, sharp sound.

In the cabin, sitting in the passenger seat, is a man.

He has a small build, a scholarly face, and a police uniform, meticulous down to every crease.

At a glance, he looks like nothing more than a diligent official returning home after a day’s work.

But behind that harmless facade is the most hated man in Norwegian history, Carl Marinson.

In an instant, figures emerge from both sides of the road.

Three bursts of automatic gunfire tear through the freezing air.

The car door swings open.

The man in the passenger seat collapses [music] as a deep red liquid stains the white snow by the roadside.

At the age of 48, [music] just 24 hours before his birthday, the director general of the Norwegian security police has drawn [music] his last breath in the heart of the city he once controlled through fear.

Marinson’s death did not bring [music] immediate peace.

On the contrary, it triggered an even more brutal chain of tragedies.

Hours later, the occupying authorities ordered a violent response.

34 innocent lives, people [music] with no connection to the incident, were taken by firing squad to compensate for the loss of a traitor.

The cruelty of these retaliations was merely the tip of the iceberg.

Marthinson was not an expeditionary general [music] from Germany.

He was a local, an officer who had once sworn to serve the laws of his homeland.

But under his command, [music] the police force was transformed into a system of purging, responsible for the arrest of over 700 Jews [music] and the destruction of countless silent resistance networks.

How did an ordinary officer become an indispensable [music] link in the brutal machinery of Nazi Germany in Northern Europe? Was his death an act of justice or a tactical [music] error that claimed the lives of dozens of other innocent civilians? To find [music] the answer, we must travel back in time to April 1940.

The moment Norway fell into the darkness of occupation [music] and the time when Carl Marinson’s choices officially set him on a path of no return.

Portrait [music] of a traitor, Carl Alfred Nikolai Marinson.

Carl Alfred Nikolai Martinsson [music] was born on October 25, 1896 on the remote island of Carsoy in the far north of Norway.

Growing up in the harshness of the [music] Arctic wilderness, Marthinson early on forged a hardened will and a cold persistence.

As soon as World War I ended in 1918, he joined the Norwegian army and [music] quickly proved his capability within the disciplined military environment.

In 1919, [music] Marthinson was promoted to sergeant after successfully completing non-commissioned officer training.

This was the first foundation forming a man who worshiped [music] order and absolute obedience.

After a brief period, leaving the military to work as a sailor, Marthinson reinlisted in 1928 and was [music] deployed to Finnmark, the frontier land bordering Russia and Finland.

Here as an intelligence officer for the local defense forces, Marinson directly supervised espionage activities and [music] prevented communist infiltration.

The isolation and atmosphere of suspicion at the border molded an extremist [music] political outlook.

Finnmark not only provided with sharp professional experience, but was also [music] where he met Jonas Lie, the chief of the emergency police.

The bond between these two minds laid the first bricks for a future system [music] of domestic oppression where the law no longer existed to protect civil rights but became a sword of purging.

1933 became a fateful milestone [music] when Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor of Germany sending shock waves across Europe.

In Norway, Vidkun Quizling, the former [music] minister of defense, quickly seized the opportunity to establish the Nazol Samling, [music] National Unity Party, an organization steeped in fascist ideology.

Marinson did not take long to recognize the ideal [music] home for his ambitions.

He was one of the first members to join Quizzling’s party in 1933.

[music] For Marinson, this was not just a political choice, but an ideological [music] salvation.

He saw in fascism a mechanism of supreme [music] power that could eliminate the instabilities of the democracy he long loathed.

His connection with Yonas lie within the party helped Marthinson quickly [music] ascend into the core inner circle of power, preparing for a subversion from within when the time came.

Those who encountered him described Carl Marinson as a small, thin man with dark, [music] weary eyes.

However, hidden behind that scholarly and somewhat frail appearance [music] was an extremely ambitious and energetic mind.

Marthinson possessed an astounding shrewdness in operating the machinery of state, but it was accompanied [music] by an icy heart and uncompromising ruthlessness.

He was the type of person who could handle administrative procedures meticulously while simultaneously signing orders to take the lives of his own countrymen without hesitation.

It was this combination of high efficiency and the absence [music] of conscience that made Marthnson one of the most terrifying figures in the history of the occupation in Northern Europe.

He did not need bullets to instill fear.

He used his very devotion and discipline to operate a silent killing machine.

The war within Norway, resistance and collaboration.

Immediately after the Norwegian government was forced to surrender [music] in June 1940, a silent but powerful resistance network spread its reach [music] across the country.

Leading this effort was Milorg, the military branch responsible for guerilla operations, intelligence [music] gathering and sabotage missions targeting the infrastructure of the occupying forces.

Under the training and supply of the British Special Operations Executive, S OE, Milog made its mark with worldshaking feats.

The most prominent example was the operation to destroy the Veor Heavy Water Plant, [music] a fatal blow that halted the Third Reich’s efforts to develop nuclear weapons.

However, resistance was not limited to gunfire.

The entirety of Norwegian society [music] participated in a quiet but persistent civil war.

from publishing underground newspapers to shatter [music] Nazi propaganda waves and organizing large-scale strikes to establishing secret lines helping the [music] Jewish community escape the drag net into neutral Sweden.

This stoicism was the greatest stumbling block to Hitler’s [music] ambitions of pacifying northern Europe.

While most of the nation chose confrontation or preserved their integrity, Carl Martinsson saw an opportunity [music] to realize the radical ideals he had nurtured since his time in Finnmar.

Thanks to the absolute backing of his partner Jonas Lie and [music] the trust of Vidkun Quizling’s inner circle, Marthinson rose through the ranks [music] at a speed unprecedented in the history of law enforcement.

He soon held the baton of director [music] general of the security police stats polit directly operating the domestic [music] security network under the close supervision of the German Gestapo.

The link between Marthinson and German secret service officers [music] was not merely a superior subordinate relationship but a close collaboration to [music] systematize fear.

He transformed the police force from protectors of the law into hunters of their own countrymen.

[music] For Marinson, the stability of the occupying regime was the ultimate priority, and anyone harboring liberal thoughts was considered an obstacle to be eliminated [music] immediately.

Marthinson’s brutality lay not only in his actions, but also [music] crystallized in an inhuman management mindset.

He once uttered a statement that became a searing indictment of [music] his soul.

It is better to arrest an innocent person by mistake than to let a guilty one escape.

To him, the safety of the system was more [music] important than the life of any individual.

This philosophy led to one of the darkest chapters in the history of the Norwegian police [music] in 1943.

That was the case of Gunnar Eiffen, a model officer who courageously refused an order to arrest five young women who would [music] not participate in forced labor for the German army.

Ifson’s act of following [music] his conscience was viewed by Marthinson as an unforgivable rebellion.

[music] Despite having no legal authority, Marthinson appointed himself judge in a special court and directly [music] signed the death warrant for his colleague.

On August 16th, 1943, [music] ifson was executed, marking the first time a Norwegian police officer was murdered by his own domestic [music] law enforcement system.

That shot not only ended a life, but also officially killed the integrity of the police force [music] under the iron fist of Carl Marinson.

family tragedy [music] and the Holocaust in Norway.

Carl Martinsson did not stop at running the police.

[music] He craved to create a new generation absolutely loyal to fascist ideals.

In his role as leader, he directly commanded the herd, a paramilitary organization modeled after the German SA stormtroopers.

Under Marinson’s training, [music] thousands of Norwegian youths were infected with racist ideology and extreme [music] hatred for communism.

Marinson’s ambition went further than domestic pacification.

He worked [music] tirelessly to mobilize and send local volunteer units to the Eastern Front to support the German army.

In the eyes of this traitor, shedding blood on the battlefield against the [music] Soviet Union was the only way to affirm the status of the Nordic race in the new order.

He viewed the lives of the nation’s youth as pawns on Hitler’s geopolitical [music] chessboard.

Marthnson’s fanaticism made no exception even for his own flesh and blood.

Kel Andreas, his [music] youngest son, joined the Waffan SS at a very young age under his father’s powerful influence.

However, fate [music] dealt a fatal blow to the pride of the director general of police.

On October [music] 16, 1944, the aircraft carrying Kiel Andreas crashed, taking the life of the 20-year-old young man right on the battlefield.

The death of his son was an event that fractured Marthinson’s already cold [music] psyche.

Instead of awakening, this pain turned him into a cornered beast.

From late 1944, Marinson became more reckless, desperate, [music] and brutal than ever.

He vented his fury and personal loss upon the resistance [music] movement and civilians with ruthless sweeps, as if wanting to force the entire world to share in his mourning.

transcending all acts of political oppression, Marthinson’s greatest crime was his role as the director [music] of the Jewish genocide tragedy.

At the time the war broke out, approximately 2,100 Jews lived [music] peacefully in Norway.

However, under Marthinson’s operation, the domestic security police coordinated seamlessly with the German [music] secret police to carry out a campaign to wipe out this community with terrifying efficiency.

In the autumn of 1942, [music] Marinson activated phase 1, ordering the confiscation of all property and the arrest of Jewish males over the age of 15.

Immediately following, the campaign expanded to [music] women and children.

He did not need massive military support.

He used administrative procedures [music] and the household registration system to scour every home.

A total of 772 people were crowded [music] onto death ships, journeying through the port of Stetin before the final stop at the gas chambers in Ashvitz.

Among them, only [music] 34 were fortunate enough to survive and return after the war.

Operation Buzzard, the ultimate punishment.

Entering the early months of 1945, the state of World War II was already decided as German troops [music] continuously retreated across all fronts.

However, in Norway, concerns of a bloody last stand [music] remained.

Allied intelligence and the Morg resistance force assessed that Marthinson, [music] with his fanatical nature and absolute power in hand, would never surrender.

He was suspected of secretly gathering the most radical members of the herd organization to turn Oslo into a final fortress, ready to sacrifice thousands of local civilians as human [music] shields.

Faced with that grim prospect, the government in exile in London, along with the milorg command, officially approved [music] an unprecedented decision.

Eliminate the director general of the security police through a [music] direct assassination campaign.

This sentence was not only punishment for the past, but also a measure to prevent a disaster in the future.

eliminate the director [music] general of the security police through a direct assassination campaign.

This sentence was not only punishment for the past, but also a measure to prevent a [music] disaster in the future.

When the car slowed down to cross a layer of slippery ice, the assassination team suddenly appeared from [music] hiding spots along the roadside.

Bursts of automatic gunfire tore through the morning silence, [music] focusing directly on the passenger seat where Marthinson sat.

The creator of fear for the entire nation [music] died instantly in a cabin filled with shattered glass.

The blood of the traitor soaked into the white snow, [music] marking the collapse of the most brutal power symbol of the occupation era.

Looking back at the events of the assassination, [music] historical researchers have raised haunting theories about Marthinson’s [music] attitude in his final days.

After the death of his son Kel Andreas at the front, [music] the director general of police seemed to have become a soulless corpse.

He moved through the heart of a city seething with resentment while lacking [music] even minimal precautionary security measures.

Perhaps that recklessness [music] and lack of vigilance was not a professional error, but rather an expression of a mindset that had [music] already given up.

Marinson knew his reign was collapsing, and personal loss had crushed his will to [music] survive.

Marthinson knew his reign was collapsing and personal loss had crushed his will to survive.

Brutal consequences and the historical debate.

Immediately after receiving news of the death of his most effective henchmen, German Reich commisar Joseph Turboven ordered the execution of a brutal retaliation policy aimed at breaking the spirit of the resistance.

Tbboan demanded the execution of 75 locals as a deterrent.

Although Vidkun Quizzling made efforts to protest, fearing that a wave of public outrage would topple the puppet government, all intercessions were futile against the will of Berlin.

Within 48 hours after the assassination, 32 innocent lives, people completely unrelated to the Milorg campaign were taken for execution.

The pinnacle of the atrocity was the presence of Minister of Justice Sa Risnas.

In a state of intoxication and loss of control, Riusnas directly participated in the firing squad, calling it an act of revenge for a good friend.

This brutality was so extreme that the Norwegian resistance movement was forced to make a painful decision.

Suspend all assassinations of highranking officials to protect the blood of civilians.

On February 14, 1945, Carl Marinson was buried with solemn military honors at the Vestra Grlin Cemetery.

The vibrant wreaths and eulogies praising loyalty could not hide a cold truth.

It was a funeral without the mourning of the people.

As one historical observer recorded, not a single tear was shed for the man who betrayed his own blood.

Marinson was laid to rest as the country counted down each day to regain freedom, leaving behind a legacy consisting only of pain and division.

From the perspective of a historical researcher, when deconstructing the file on Carl Marinson, we do not only see a guilty individual, but also a major lesson on the corruption of ideals.

Marthinson’s life is a testament to the fact that a person with high discipline and capability, if lacking a core moral foundation, will become a terrifying tool of destruction.

His greatest mistake was not choosing the wrong side of the battle lines, but rather acting in the name of order to trample upon the most sacred human value, the right to life and liberty.

History does not repeat itself exactly, but the laws of character are eternal.

In a volatile modern world, each of us, especially students and young people, needs to build a solid moral compass.

Professional competence is like a powerful engine.

But morality is the steering wheel that keeps life from plunging into the abyss of selfishness and brutality.

Marthinson’s legacy reminds us that a nation is only truly strong when it knows how to look directly at its darkest scars to reconcile and learn.

Positivity does not lie in hiding the past, but in how we use the past as a light to guide the future.

Learn to respect diversity, protect human rights, and always remain vigilant against extremist ideologies that intentionally divide people.

Peace is not just the absence of gunfire, but the presence of compassion and understanding.

Carl Marinson was discarded by history, but the lesson of preserving humanity in dark times will forever be a guiding light for all future generations.

The file on the Devil of Oslo officially closes here.
