Danish true crime podcast Mørkeland released its 296th episode on October 12, 2025, running approximately one hour and 42–43 minutes. Hosts Camilla and Kristine cover two separate cases in an episode titled "Heavily Pregnant Woman Goes Berserk and Danish Hammer Murder in Portugal."

A Heavily Pregnant Woman in Panic

The first case centers on a heavily pregnant woman in Nørrebro — a densely populated neighborhood in Copenhagen — who in a state of panic ran to her neighbor. The situation also involves an almost two-year-old stepson. Nørrebro is known internationally as one of Copenhagen's most culturally diverse and densely populated districts, and cases from the area frequently attract significant media attention in Denmark.

A Danish Hammer Murder Abroad

The second case deals with a hammer murder carried out in Portugal by a Danish perpetrator. Cross-border Danish criminal cases of this nature are relatively rare, and Mørkeland's coverage brings the case to a wider audience.
