Lisa Ling’s Sister Sentenced to 12 Years in a North Korean Labor Prison

Wow. Note to self: Never mess with North Korea. Shit. And don’t think the prison won’t be serving her dog-sloppy-joe.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea’s top court has convicted two U.S. journalists, and sentenced them to 12 years in labor prison, the country’s state news agency reported Monday.

The Central Court tried American TV reporters Laura Ling and Euna Lee and confirmed their unspecified “grave crime” against the nation, and of illegally crossing into North Korea, the Korean Central News Agency said.

It said the court — which tried the women from June 4 to 8 — “sentenced each of them to 12 years of reform through labor.” The report gave no other details. (via)
