The son of top Norwegian diplomats, implicated in the files of the notorious pedophile, has been found dead<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The son of two senior Norwegian diplomats under investigation over ties to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has taken his own life, Norwegian newspaper VG reported earlier this week, citing lawyers for the family.<\/p>\n

Edward Juul Rod-Larsen, 25, was found dead in Oslo days after French and Norwegian police reportedly launched a joint investigation into his parents, Mona Juul and Terje Rod-Larsen. The probe is centered around allegations that the disgraced US financier had helped the couple purchase an apartment, and left $5 million to each of their two children in his will.<\/p>\n

The probe is part of widening international fallout from the latest release of millions of Epstein documents, which have triggered criminal investigations, arrests, and resignations across politics, business, and even royalty.<\/p>\n

Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting sex from a minor and served 13 months of an 18-month sentence, was arrested again in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges. He died by suicide in his jail cell ahead of his trial.<\/p>\n

The US Department of Justice has gradually released materials related to the case under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law by US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

The released documents mention numerous high-profile figures, linking some to Epstein\u2019s network or questionable financial dealings. The disclosures have triggered resignations, probes, and reviews worldwide, with many acknowledging contact but denying wrongdoing, with some charges brought in a limited number of cases.<\/p>\n

Last month, Former Norwegian Prime Minister Thorbjorn Jagland was hospitalized after a reported suicide attempt, days after being charged with gross corruption over accepting Epstein\u2019s hospitality. World Economic Forum CEO Borge Brende stepped down over dinners and communications with the disgraced financier.<\/p>\n

In the US, the release has placed renewed scrutiny on former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Both have been deposed about their associations with Epstein, but have denied knowledge of his trafficking operation.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the disclosures, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova described the scandal as exposing the \u201cpure Satanism\u201d<\/em> at the heart of the collective West, accusing Western elites of inventing threats from Russia to distract from their own \u201cmonstrous crimes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
