The Edition Case Comes to a Close

A case involving the tragic deaths of a French couple at the Edition Hotel in Reykjavik has been returned to the police for further investigation after the initial case was deemed closed.

The tragic discovery of a French couple found dead in a hotel room at the Edition Hotel in Reykjavik last June has led to renewed investigation efforts. Having been in Iceland for about a week, the couple had been enjoying tours of popular tourist spots before the incident occurred. The husband reportedly struggled with severe health issues, adding complexity to the circumstances surrounding their deaths. In a shocking confession, the wife, who is also the mother of the deceased, initially admitted to the killings but later retracted her statement and now denies any wrongdoing. This change in her position has compelled the district attorney to send the case back to the police for further examination of several facets of the incident.
