Jan. 19 (UPI) -- Otto Warmbier's family received over $240,000 in seized North Korean assets over the death of their son in 2017.
Warmbier was 21 years old when he traveled to Pyongyang in 2015 as part of a study abroad program. He was later arrested at the airport for allegedly stealing a propaganda poster in a hotel, which was considered a "hostile act against the state" by North Korea.
