Otto Warmbier
Otto Warmbier’s parents are rebuking President Donald Trump after he defended North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Fred and Cindy Warmbier spoke out after President Donald Trump said he believed the North Korean leader didn't know about how their son was treated.
"Donald Trump just hasn’t met a tyrant he doesn’t love," the "Morning Joe" host said.
From Kim Jong Un to Vladimir Putin, Trump has allied himself with some seriously questionable leaders.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Trump said he takes the North Korean leader at his word that he didn't know about the student's treatment in prison.
The American college student was arrested and sentenced to 15 years of hard labor in North Korea in March 2016 on suspicion of stealing a propaganda poster.
The president was responsible for bringing the student back to the U.S. after more than a year in North Korean captivity. Warmbier died days after returning home.
The lawsuit comes two days after Donald Trump called Kim Jong Un an "honorable" man.
"Their athletes are not exchanging ideas with other athletes in the Olympic Village or really participating."
Vice President Mike Pence met Fred Warmbier, whose son died after being released from a North Korean jail.
