But not in Sweden; Clark also became a name in Belgium when he used to live there with his lady love.

But his golden days didn’t last for long, and he was again caught.

One of the most striking traits about his personality is that even though he has been involved in criminal activities since his very childhood, he does not even regret a single thing.

Moreover, Donegal has stated that what he has done throughout his life is exceptional. He didn’t choose to do a 9-5 job and explored the world. He is proud of that.

Well, every time we discuss a criminal, one common thing that comes up, again and again, is a cruel childhood. So let us discuss what happened to Donegal and why he chose to be a criminal.

Bio

Donegal’s childhood could have been a beautiful one if his parents had been a little bit more responsible and taken good care of their children. He was born into a family which was deeply affected by alcoholism.

It indeed affected him and his two younger sisters to a greater extent. His mother was a cashier, and his father was employed as an asphalt worker. Sounds pretty good, right?

But the situation wasn’t as good as it seemed. His mother was suffering from some mental health disorders. Therefore, a time came when she had to leave her children and go for treatment.

This was the time when her kids felt the most lonely in their foster care. It was then Donegal also lost control over his mind. He was not insane but also not sane. 

He wanted to explore the world, and he did that by enrolling himself in a sailor’s school. Donegal had to forge his mother’s signature for it. But soon, he was thrown out of that institution.

But his desire to visit countries overseas was already fulfilled.

His Changing Attitude

Later, his mother reunited with her children, and this time she was a healthy and fit working woman. They started a new life. But Donegal didn’t seem to be interested in all that stuff that much.

The situation started to worsen. Reports about Clark, stealing fruits and other stuff from his school started coming to his mother. But she couldn’t do much about it.

Later, something happened that nobody has ever expected from a teenager. You know, in the teenage years, children need their parents the most. 

This was something that Clark never had, and the results were gruesome. The later events lead us to his criminal history.

Crime History

Donegal started committing minor crimes from a young age. He was also sent to rehab for that. But it was all in vain. Everything seemed normal till one day, he and his friend broke into a bicycle shop and tried stealing.

Police reached on time, but his friend ended up attacking a police officer. It ultimately made the situation worse and created several other problems for Clark. 

But Clark had no regrets and kept on committing sinful crimes. A case of him assaulting two police officers was also reported. It was then the police caught him.

The further events led him to spend 3 years in jail but guess what? He escaped it. Escaping prison is not something new for him. He had done that throughout his life.

Maybe the fact that he never considered himself to be a criminal but a celebrity worked behind this tendency.

After Donegal escaped, the police were ready to do anything to catch him. Luck worked in their favor. The Swedish police department found out about the apartment of his girlfriend. It was where he was hiding at that time.

But this time too, they failed and got killed by Donegal.

His Life In Belgium

After all these years of crime and escape. Donegal decided to start a new life with his girlfriend in Belgium. Clark Olofsson changed his name to Donegal Demuynck and tried to live a happy life there.

But his criminal instincts never let him live his life the right way. In Belgium, he started indulging in various drug offenses. Moreover, the Belgian police considered him to be the leader of all these groups.

His marriage also broke off in 1999. By that time, the couple had six children. 

Where is Donegal Demuynck Now?

Currently, he is in Sweden. While he was in prison in Belgium, Clark tried a lot to reduce the time or find ways to escape but failed. Later he applied to be relocated to Sweden, which was granted.

30th July 2018, he was set free in Sweden.
