North Korean media reported on Monday that a US student who was detained in January has confessed to "severe and pre-planned" crimes against the state. Otto Warmbier, 21, was detained for "taking out a political slogan from the staff-only area" of a hotel in Pyongyang. He also claimed an acquaintance promised him $200,000 if he was caught stealing the slogan.
