"10/10 I remember hearing about this when it happened (the public assassination of Kim Jung-un in an airport). Now knowing the back-story, I am so outraged about how these two women were used as pawns in political hit. The real purpotrators are protected by the North Korean government and will never face trial. Meanwhile these two women live with the stigma of being the accused in this crime, and being found guilty by the public because the Malaysian prosecution and police force decided they were guilty before trial and publicly said they worked alone in the assassination. So much injustice for the victim and the 2 women that were clearly scapegoats. "
