Jessica Ball Current Event 2/26/17

Current Event: Kim Jong Nam Died
Kim Jong Nam, the half brother was poisoned, and died within 20 minutes of being poisoned. He was exposed to a nerve agent at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia. There are suspects that are being held, but the killer has not been caught yet. This nerve agent can be used to poison someone by putting it in their food, putting it in their drink, or spraying it in their face, and this time it was either rubbed on him or sprayed in his face by someone. Whoever did it was hired by someone of a larger power who wanted him dead.
Apparently Kim Jong Nam proposed a threat to Kim Jong Un and Kim Jong Un may have hired these people to murder his half brother. It is so odd to think that there are countries out there where people get killed under little investigation. North Korea is such a scary place and we are so fortunate to live in a country where we can exercise our freedom of speech.

  1. I wonder what happened between the half brothers and if Kim Jong Un really hired people to kill him?

  2. We are super fortunate. This current event really sounds like the things you hear in movies, but this time it's real.
