Jacob, 24, and his brothers Philip, 31, Henrik, 34, who were also Olympic athletes, submitted public claims in October 2023 that their father – whose coach until 2022 – was violent.
The trio, who are among the seven children in igbrigtsen, wrote at the time that they “still feel uncomfortable and fear” about GJERT, who were accused of being “very aggressive and observers.”
At that time, Gogurt, who resigned as his sons coach, resigned at the time, said at the time his lawyer that the statement was “unfounded” and that “he never used violence against his children.”
GJERT was accused of one crime in April – but five fees were dropped on the strength of the evidence and another due to time restrictions. Another charge was later added to the case.
In addition to its Olympic laws, Jakob is a global champion of 5000 meters, holding a silver medal in the world twice 1500 meters, and a European champion 11 times.
On the weekend, two international internal titles won gold at 3000 meters and 1500 meters in Nanjing, China.
