Otto Warmbier, the University of Virginia student who was detained in North Korea for nearly a year and a half, died Monday afternoon, his parents announced.
On Thursday, doctors at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center said that the 22-year-old Otto Warmbier had extensive loss of brain tissue, and was in a state of unresponsive wakefulness.

Trump and his A.G. Jeff Session have worked to cut off funding for sanctuary cities, but a leftist judge stopped it. They are appealing, and eventually it will probably work it’s way to the Supreme Court. We should win there, so we just need to be patient. Trump is trying.
They probably do eat dogs, but I don’t believe that they are cannibals.
Exactly what caused the “extensive loss of brain tissue”?
Indeed and not one that he could be proud of, but probably is.
Did they stop giving him fluids and antibiotics once he was admitted? Did they take his organs to donate to others?
I heard the sad news here as I got off work and called my Mom about this. I’m watching Tucker on Fox and saw the President’s response.
Horrible Regime!
God Bless his soul.
This poor kid was like a hot potato for Un. He was ready to use any excuse under the sun (Dennis Rodman) to send him back home because he knew he was going to die.
He was Jewish.
I read the details of the court case. The amount of brutality visited on that young woman was so bad it was sickening to read.
I’m pissed off they all but killed this misguided kid. Those of you that aren’t, pound sand. Doesn’t look good for the USA to dismiss it either. He was foolish to be there, but it’s not like those that join ISIS or bad mouth America on foreign soil.
Now we know why the N. Korean’s released him. They knew he was a dead man walking. Condolences to the family.
There is a lot of unfounded speculation lacking an iota of factual basis on this thread. C’mon, Freepers: were better than this!

“Sad that the last president (spit on his name...obama) did not try or try harder to get this young man home as he might have made it.”
What did you expect Obama to do? He had tee times. He had rock concerts to host at the White House. He had vacations to take. Saving the life of an American abroad is not important.
And likely just before he was released from N. Korea...They wouldn't want him talking about what he'd experienced while in the hell hole...
I haven’t heard this on tv news. Are they burying the story?
A kid, to be fair his parents could not do anything, he was 22 years old.
Why?
I wouldn't be caught dead there.
(because you just might be)
We are so hated and direspected thanks to odouche that this fat korean is testing us.
Who paid for the trip to North Korea?
Freegards
Yes, I was also wondering if he was euthanized here in the states.. he “survived “ for a year in a coma in backwards NK, then dies days after arriving in the US. What happened??
