Epstein Scandal Deals New Blow to Norway Crown Princess

  • On Friday, newly released U.S. Department of Justice files show Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway's name appears at least 1,000 times, revealing years of contact with Jeffrey Epstein.
  • Between 2011 and 2014, messages show contact between Mette-Marit and Epstein, and the palace says she ended ties in 2014 after concluding he sought to exploit her.
  • Files show dozens of warm emails and affectionate language, including a question about wallpaper for the 15-year-old son and a four-day stay at Epstein's Palm Beach, Florida residence in 2013.
  • There is no criminal allegation, but the disclosures have caused embarrassment for the royal household, with politicians questioning public trust and Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store saying he `agreed` she had exercised poor judgement.
  • On Tuesday, her son Marius Borg Hoiby goes on trial on 38 counts and could face up to 16 years; the royal couple will not attend the seven-week trial at Oslo district court.
