Norwegian Ambassador Resigns Amid Scrutiny over Contacts with Jeffrey Epstein
Norway's ambassador has stepped down from her position after facing mounting scrutiny over her previous contacts with Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019. The resignation highlights how Epstein's network continues to create fallout for public figures who had any association with him, regardless of the nature of their interactions.
The departure adds to a growing list of diplomats, business leaders, and public officials who have faced professional consequences as renewed investigations and media scrutiny continue to examine the full extent of Epstein's social and professional connections.
