Iceland Government Collapse, Bjarni Benediktsson Pedophilia Scandal
The Icelandic government collapsed after the Bright Future Party withdrew from the ruling coalition. The crisis was triggered by revelations that Prime Minister Bjarni Benediktsson's father, Benedikt Svensson, wrote a letter recommending the restoration of honor for a convicted pedophile, Hjalte Sigurðjón Huxson. The government is accused of covering up the letter for months.
