In 2017, Grøndahl went on the record stating that "It's never the woman's fault if a man decides to attack her. But, that said...well, when I look at the picture of the victim, the way she let herself be photographed, the look she gives the camera...I can't help but think that this is a girl who's looking for trouble." regarding the beheading of journalist Kim Wall.
