Parents of Otto Warmbier blame North Korea’s Kim Jong Un for son’s death, after President Trump said he accepted Kim’s word that he didn’t know about abuse

The parents of Otto Warmbier on Friday blamed North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and his regime for their son’s death, a day after President Trump said he accepted Mr. Kim’s word that he didn’t know about Mr. Warmbier’s abuse while he was held in captivity.

“Kim and his evil regime are responsible for the death of our son Otto,” Fred and Cindy Warmbier said in a statement issued by a law firm representing the family. “Kim and his evil regime are responsible for unimaginable cruelty and inhumanity. No excuses or lavish praise...

Donald Trump slapped these two human beings by siding with Kim Jong UN. the person who's responsible for their Son's DEATH!

Stupidity -1th class from President Trump

morgfair Their country let them down

Trump can say he served in Vietnam now

Kim knows everything about torture, imprisonment, etc. Kim is responsible for all horrific acts. He’s a terrorist and Trump is supporting terrorism. He believes Putin and now Kim. Trump is disgraceful!

Ultimately the buck stops at the top.

Fuera eeuu de latinoamerica

This is terrible, he is beyond words. That’s all he does is make side deals around the world. Not one ounce of respect to the people of our country accept his family members and his lying cronies. It’s time to pull the plug!!!

These parents share some of the blame. Letting your son go to North Korea in the first place was an awful lapse in judgement.

They have to blame their son. If he doesn’t steal anything from the hotel where he’s been at then he would still alive. Why he went to N Korea?! I’m in the UK but I won’t jump through on the fence of Buckingham Palace coz I know it’s unlawful. World and ppl getting really stupid

NK has an evil dictator. The world should unite in his deposing, and free the people

Awful to lose children, but I’d like to know why Otto was in NK and why his parents didn’t stop him from going there. Has NK ever been known as friendly place for westerners to vacation in? Do we blame driver for hitting a lone child running across freeway?

Put the blame where it belongs,on Otto.He went and broke their laws.

Where are the Clickservatives who endlessly support this obnoxious ignorant buffoon of a President? Where is the GOP? Does anyone have a spine? Does the WSJ?

Lessen to parents, now what your children are doing

Why are you bashing Trump saying he doesn’t care about Otto if he was the one who was anle to bring him back home, after the prior administration dropped the ball? Let him clarify his statement.

Trump used them as props and then threw them away......

Hey MAGATS!! How would you respond to this headline? 'Parents of Otto Warmbier blame North Korea’s Kim Jong Un for son’s death, after President OBAMA said he accepted Kim’s word that he didn’t know about abuse.'

President trump, should also be held liable, he let kim off the hook!

Contradict is strong they have a different perspective

Trump said in public that he loves Kim, so why should he care about Otto Warmbier? (Pure sarcasm)

How about you leave these grieving families alone? Have you no mercy

What a contrast from other major newspapers! This is the ONLY on-line, front-page mention of Trump. WSJ says nothing about Cohen. Unbelievable.

Donald Trump is evil....He stands with KILLERS NOT Americans..!

Love Trump since he rode down the escalator. But every so often I can’t help but say “what the F**K were you thinking!?!?!”

Sorry for his son first off. Secondly, 'visiting' N. Korea wasn't a brilliant move. I'm afraid the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree on this one. Giving a head of accolades is customary and a standard practice for foreign affairs, especially when you are dealing with nukes

rip. but blame is on otto's stupid decision to go to nk in the first place and then to steal a banner when knowing they were being monitored 27/7. obuma did nothing.....as usual

I mean your son was already braindead before he went to NK. Lets be honest with ourselves

terrible parents. terrible parenting. blame yourselves.

😂😂😂😂😂çok romantik gerçektende 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

BLESS THIS FAMILY - how can this 'president' stand with KJU... horrible what is happening to our country and those in it

Otto Warmbier's parents rebuke Trump, blame North Korea for death of their sonTrump said he didn’t believe that Kim — whose regime is accused of a number of human rights violations — would have ordered the mistreatment of Otto Warmbier. Good -- This was forgotten about much too quickly They are very grateful to President Trump. It was Obama that sat on his thumb and did nothing. Trumps loyalty extends about as far as his 2-inch mushroom penis.

Otto Warmbier's parents blame Kim Jong Un for son's death, push back after Trump accepts dictator's denialThe parents of Otto Warmbier, who died of injuries sustained in detention in North Korea, issued a stinging rebuke to President Donald Trump. Did u know Trump is friends with the parents? Two things. First, you can be responsible for an action and not know it is occurring. Second, you have to define the goal line. If the goal line is getting N Korea to give up their nukes then someone complaining needs to explain how calling Kim a liar advances the ball.

Trump trusts Kim's 'word' that he was unaware of Otto Warmbier mistreatment"I don't believe that he would have allowed that to happen — it just wasn’t to his advantage to allow that," the president said. Didn’t he bring it up last time? The GOP owns this. Putting dictators above their American victims. There is no bottom for these people. Anything in the name of power. Being 'unaware' doesn't mean you are not responsible.

Negotiator agrees with Trump: Kim Jong Un likely didn’t know about Otto Warmbier’s condition“That was an anomaly. Typically our prisoners and hostages and detainees get back more or less in one piece.” Deplorable. Two 'tiny' men. Both pitiful and incompetent. They must have broke up!
