Trump to have dinner with parents of Otto Warmbier at White House
By Adam Shaw | Fox News
President Trump will have dinner on Saturday at the White House with the parents of Otto Warmbier, the American college student who died in 2017 after being held captive in North Korea for more than a year.
Fred and Cindy Warmbier, along with some of Otto’s friends, will have a private dinner at the White House with Trump, Fox News confirmed Saturday.
Warmbier was convicted of trying to steal a poster while in Pyongyang and was imprisoned for 17 months. He was eventually released but returned to the U.S. in a vegetative state and later died.
Doctors in Cincinnati said Warmbier had suffered severe brain damage, although they weren't sure what led to it. North Korea denied mistreating him, saying he fell into a coma that resulted from botulism and a sleeping pill.
The Associated Press reported that ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell was expected to join the dinner on Saturday evening.
