Who is Clark Olofsson? Where is He Now?

Clark Olofsson was born in February 1947 into an alcoholic family. He had a terrible upbringing. Clark Olofsson, later known as Daniel Demuynck, is a criminal from Sweden who now lives in Belgium. When Clark Olofsson turned 18, his life took a turn, and it all started with a simple escapade.

In 1965, Clark and his friends broke into Tage Erlander's greenhouse, Sweden's then-Prime Minister. They collected vegetables and fruits inside. They fled after the gardener noticed them.

After serving his first prison sentence, the severity of his offenses and his behavior changed. He robbed a bicycle shop in the mid-1960s, resulting in the shooting of an officer. Clark served eight years in prison for the same crime, at which time he met Jan-Erik Olsson, who would later become his bank robbery companion.

This is the origin of the infamous Stockholm Syndrome. Olsson had kidnapped bank employees and requested that Olofsson be released so that they could collaborate.

In addition to his legendary robberies, Clark Olofsson became renowned as the Stockholm Syndrome criminal. The captives in Olofsson and Olsson's bank robbery developed feelings for them. Both of the culprits were subsequently apprehended and sentenced to prison.

After being wanted globally by Interpol for several months, he was caught in Tenerife in 1998 as the head of narcotics smuggling. Olofsson was sentenced to 14 years in jail the following year for smuggling 49 kg of amphetamine into Denmark. This was, by the way, the harshest drug sentence in Danish legal history.

On the other hand, Clark Olofsson was paroled in 2005. He continued to smuggle drugs until he was apprehended again in 2009 and sentenced to 14 years in jail, as well as lifetime deportation.

Clark was transported to a Belgian jail to serve the balance of his sentence in November 2016. After abandoning his Belgian citizenship, he was granted Swedish citizenship the following year.

On a personal note, Clark met Marijke, a 19-year-old young woman, when he fled from prison in 1975, and moved to Belgium, where they raised three children.  However, Marijke's marriage to him ended in 1999.

Now Clark Olofsson has six children: one with his now-fiancée, three with his former wife, Marijke, and two daughters from before his marriage. After abandoning his Belgian citizenship, he now has been granted Swedish citizenship.
