Morten Bødskov (born 1 May 1970 in Karup) is a Danish social democratic politician and former Minister of Justice in the Government of Helle Thorning-Schmidt. At age 15 he joined the Social Democratic Youth of Denmark (DSU), where he quickly assumed a large number of positions of trust. In 1996 he took over as federal president of the DSU from Henrik Sass Larsen. In 2001 he was elected to the Folketinget,[1] two years later he was appointed spokesman, and in 2005 Helle Thorning-Schmidt appointed him as deputy chairman of the parliamentary party (folketingsgruppen).
From 3 October 2011 to 11 December 2013, he served as Minister of Justice. As Minister of Justice, Bødskov was among those who spearheaded austerity measures, new restrictions on air guns,[2] an increased focus on gang and biker-related crime,[3] a new Probation system and the creation of 200 new prison places[4] and the highly controversial amendment to the Public Records Act.[5]
