Vietnamese woman accused of killing Kim Jong Un’s brother pleads guilty to lesser charge

The Vietnamese woman accused of killing Kim John Un’s estranged half-brother more than two years ago in a daring chemical weapons attack could be released from prison as early as May after pleading to a lesser charge of causing hurt by potentially deadly means.

A Malaysian court sentenced Doan Thi Huong on Monday to three years and four months in prison, with her incarceration retroactively dated to the day of her arrest, Feb. 15, 2017 -- two days after authorities said Huong and an accomplice approached Kim Jong Nam in a crowded airport and smeared a nerve agent on his face.

However, her attorney says that, under Malaysian laws, Huong could be released by the first week of May if granted a one-third reduction in her sentence for good behavior.

It almost might have been as good of a question to ask the President on what he thought of Little Kim's involvement in this assassination.

Kim, as head-of-state, had responsibility in the death of Warmbier, I've heard experts say that and that must be true.

But assassinating your half-brother in a foreign country in such a sinister way is equally horrid... and they used poisoned and accordingly, two parts of elements, chemicals, were used to kill the half-brother.
