Prank Gone Too Far
Assassins 2020 is a documentary of the killing of North Korea leader's older half brother.
Evidence provided in the documentary are not evidence of pranks but evidence of assaults. These are more like 'haha gotcha' moments.
I believe the assailant didn't know what she was doing. That at least was obvious. But they had suspicions. Anybody with a brain can see that everything was very suspicious. From not using their names to not wanting to be on camera, and not informing the people that they were pranks... Also, not receiving their consent to use the footage, How old the men were
Not acting on those suspicions is something they are clearly guilty of.
"Nobody else agreed to do it"... Whom I wonder Y?
The document purposely tries to manipulate the viewer to have negative assumptions on NK instead of presenting the facts without bias. The facts should speak for themselves.
So should they be punished for their crimes? I think they've been punished enough.
All things considered. This is nothing new. America and other countries had a handful of political assassinations done in the past years. There were some scapegoats too. - flammjared - 23 March 2021
