Edward Juul Rod-Larsen, the 25-year-old son of two prominent Norwegian diplomats drawn into a widening Jeffrey Epstein scandal, has died by suicide in Oslo days after authorities opened a joint investigation into his parents' alleged financial ties to the late convicted sex offender.
Rod-Larsen was the son of Mona Juul and Terje Rød-Larsen, a diplomatic power couple known internationally for their role in the secret negotiations that led to the 1993 Oslo Accords between Israel and the Palestinians. His death was confirmed by lawyers for the family, according to The Times of London, which reported that he was found dead three days after Norwegian and French authorities launched a joint investigation into his parents.
