Ezio Melotti added the comment:

0xed is the start byte of a 3 bytes sequence (i.e. a BMP char), and it should 
be followed by two continuation bytes.

For some reason the traceback you pasted is missing the last part, that might 
provide some insight.  It could be one of these:
>>> b'\xed'.decode('utf-8') # not enough continuation bytes
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xed in position 0: 
unexpected end of data
>>> b'\xed\x7f'.decode('utf-8') # not a valid continuation byte
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xed in position 0: invalid 
continuation byte
