North Korea sentences American Kenneth Bae to 15 years of hard labor
So I suppose he's not going to be "immediately released" as the US Government has been demanding.

SEOUL, South Korea -- An American detained for nearly six months in North Korea has been sentenced to 15 years of labor for crimes against the state, the North's state media said Thursday, a development that further complicates already strained ties between Pyongyang and Washington.

The sentencing of Kenneth Bae, described by friends as a devout Christian and a tour operator, comes amid signs of tentative diplomacy following weeks of rising tensions in the region. North Korea had been warning of nuclear war and missile strikes, an angry response to U.N. sanctions for conducting a long-range rocket launch in December and a nuclear test in February, as well as U.S.-South Korean military drills in South Korea.

Obama put his cards on the table when he made the demand. This won't look good. The demand has virtually been ignored.

This is just another way of them demanding money, and the politicians paying them in a 'Back Room Deal'.
