DC: A federal judge ruled Monday that North Korea owed Otto Warmbier’s family over $500 million in damages for his death last year.
Warmbier was a University of Virginia student who allegedly stole a propaganda poster while in North Korea back in January 2016. He was convicted and sentenced to 15 years of hard labor by the state for the alleged crime in March of that year. Warmbier was released with the help of U.S. President Donald Trump in June 2017, but Warmbier, 22, died a week after his return.
Chief Judge Beryl A. Howell of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued the ruling, citing North Korea’s “torture, hostage-taking, and extrajudicial killing” of Warmbier. more here
Oh, I’m sure Kim is writing the check RIGHT NOW and feels just terrible.
What a friggin’ joke.
Just shows how out of touch with reality these federal judges truly are. While you’re at it, go ahead and issue an arrest warrant for Lil’ Kim.
The judge will have to wait until rocketman can get down to the ATM.
Uh, yeah. Good luck with that.
His life was worth 1/10th what President Trump can’t get to protect American citizens?
Sure thing judge.
I feel sorry for the parents loss but 500mill.? The kid stole a poster was sentenced to 15 years? That is harsh. Whats a bowl of rice worth to these chinks? Judge should go himself and try to collect it…rest in peace kid…..
So the 10 billion to Mexico and Guatemala is staying with the American victims?
What a joke. Kim Jong Fatbastard wants to know if he can get one of those payment plans like Reverend Al got for his taxes.
BBL, time for a beer and prep for dinner…
What the heck, judge; just make it an even trillion dollars.
” Warmbier was released with the help of U.S. President Donald Trump in June 2017, but Warmbier, 22, died a week after his return.”
How in the hell did a federal judge let Trump off the hook?
Equivalent to their GNP for the next 20 years – yeah, that’s gonna happen.
