Fifteen year’s in a North Korean prison with hard labor is the future for American tourist, Otto Warmbier, the 21-year-old University of Virginia undergrad, convicted of subversion. The trial in the North Korean Supreme Court only took an hour to convict and sentence.
The college student was first tried in the media, where he was forced to confess, through tears, that he had attempted to steal a banner. The North Korean government said he committed “an anti-state crime with ‘the tacit connivance of the U.S. government and under its manipulation,'” yet it is difficult to see how the United States was connected with this petty crime.
Warmbeir begged for forgiveness for this alleged ‘hostile act’, saying that his attempted theft was to bring home a trophy from the hotel in which he was staying. Yanggakdo International Hotel, like many hotels in North Korea has areas off-limits to foreigners. It was in this part of the hotel that Warmbeir attempted to lift the banner.

I guess he didn’t learn much in college or he would never have put himself in this position. No sympathy for him at all. He should have known better. Lesson 1: Never forget what country you are in. Lesson 2: Stealing anything is wrong. and Lesson 3: Your actions have consequences. I’m sure there are at least a dozen more lessons here.
No mention of whether the 200k was paid.
Why would anyone want to go to this country? You get what you deserve when you do stupid things.
