Woman accused of killing Kim Jong Nam released from prison
NY Post ^ | 5/3/2019 | Lia Eustachewich

A Vietnamese woman accused of killing Kim Jong Un’s half-brother with a nerve agent was headed home Friday after serving time behind bars for the stunt.

Doan Thi Huong’s release from a Malaysian prison caps the two-year case — which means it’s likely no one will ever be convicted in the brazen, broad-daylight assassination of Kim Jong Nam.

In a stunning move, prosecutors dropped murder charges against Huong and her co-defendant, Indonesian Siti Aisyah, who was released from custody in March. The two women were accused of smearing the deadly VX nerve agent on Kim Jong Nam’s face at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on Feb. 13, 2017.

Huong, 30, sought to be acquitted but prosecutors denied her request. She pleaded guilty last month to a reduced charge of causing injury and was sentenced to 40 months in prison from the day of her arrest, Feb. 15, 2017. She was released early for good behavior.

NY Post calls an assassination “the stunt”. Disgusting.

“...after serving time behind bars for the stunt.”

Must not’ve been a First Degree Stunt.

She will return to North Korea to a hero’s welcome. 6 months from now she’ll be dead.

Stunting in the third degree?

Stuning stunts?

I guess it was pretty hard for the Norks to assasinate
her in a Malayan prison, so they bought her out.
