Federal Court Awards $2.3 Billion to USS Pueblo Crew Members, Families in Terrorism Case Against North Korea

The Associated Press | By The Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- After more than 50 years, USS Pueblo crew members and their families are finally being recognized for what they have endured.

A federal district court has awarded compensatory damages in the amount of $1.15 billion and additional punitive damages in the same amount. Thursday�s decision follows a 2019 default judgment that held North Korea liable for taking the crew hostage in 1968. The damages awarded are among the largest ever awarded in a state-sponsored terrorism case.
