Clark Oderth Olofsson (later known as Daniel Demuynck), (born 1 February 1947) in Trollhättan, Sweden, is a Swedish criminal now living in Belgium. He has received sentences for attempted murder, assault, robbery, and dealing narcotics and has spent more than half of his life in correctional institutions in Sweden. Olofsson has been called Sweden's first "pop-gangster".

Olofsson was present at the Norrmalmstorg robbery whose events resulted in the creation of the phrase "" to describe them.

Olofsson was born into a home where both parents were alcoholics. When he was eight years old, his mother became a single mother, taking care of Olofsson and his two younger sisters. Her problems led to the three children being placed in foster care. When his mother regained control of her life, and started working in a shop, the children were returned to her care and they moved to an apartment in Hisingen, Gothenburg.

For several petty crimes, sixteen-year-old Olofsson was placed in a behavioural institution for young offenders in 1963. Olofsson and two other boys escaped from the institution in August 1965 and entered the country estate of Swedish Prime Minister Tage Erlander at Harpsund, where they stole grapes, cucumbers and tomatoes from the greenhouse. They fled when the gardener discovered them. Three months later Olofsson assaulted two police officers in Eskilstuna. On 4 February 1966, he was sentenced to three years in prison; this was his third sentence and his first real prison sentence. In late 1966, he made his first escape from the prison at Tidaholm.
