Parents of late U.S. hostage Otto Warmbier chasing North Korean assets

pay more than $500 million in a wrongful death suit filed by the Warmbiers over their son, although they are unlikely to collect on the judgment.

The Warmbiers have been pushing legal action seeking the closure of a hostel operated on the grounds of the North Korean Embassy in Berlin and plan to go after other hostels the country operates in Europe, which they say are aimed at pressuring governments to tighten their enforcement of sanctions against Pyongyang.

“We cannot give up, we can't give them a pass. We have to fight with all of our power,” Cindy Warmbier said. She also expressed hope that the Trump administration would use its diplomatic opening with Pyongyang to address the North’s human rights issues.During the earlier part of his presidency, President Donald Trump strongly criticized North Korea over its dismal human rights record, inviting the Warmbiers to his State of the Union address last year where he lashed out at the “depraved character” of the government led by third-generation leader Kim Jong Un.

Following his second summit with Kim in Vietnam in February, Trump said he takes Kim “at his word” that Kim was unaware of the alleged mistreatment of Otto Warmbier while he was imprisoned there.

Otto warmbier's soul is so beautiful and pure. It will be reborn as a human or animal Thirty seven days later. But If It can't enjoy peace of mind during that time. It will completely turn into a devil. please pray for him and help them take vengeance on the North Korean regime!

Isn't it possible just maybe these people didn't teach their child not to break the law and steel?

That white privilege doesn't work in North Korea

Only the people of north Korea who suffer though isn't it? Why do weak gov't go for the people instead of just dropping a bomb on dictators heads? What's point in having weapons if can't kill evil?

Obama failed Otto.

Horrific, what they did to this young man and his family. Was this some kind of setup from the start?

MeetThePress they must to love Trump's affection for the lowlife that killed their son...

How soon trump forgot about this tragedy....shameful 😢😢
