"I've been dealing with them for years, and I've never seen it so bad".
US State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said earlier the US would hold North Korea accountable for Warmbier's "unjust imprisonment" and called for the release of three other Americans detained in the country.
Pyongyang returned Warmbier to the US on June 13 after reportedly being in a coma for a year. Trump appeared to acknowledge as much in a tweet Wednesday, a day after Warmbier's death.
Trump said the tubby tyrant did not "respect the rule of law or basic decency" over the death.
The Hamilton County Coroner's Office in OH confirmed that it received and examined the 22-year-old's body after his death on Monday. The White House has quietly pushed for the release of all the Americans as a first step toward better relations, and President Trump has sometimes publicly indicated a willingness to talk with the North's leader, Kim Jong Un, about its pursuit of nuclear arms and missiles capable of striking the United States.
The US military said the bombers conducted two separate drills with the Japanese and South Korean air forces. "I sent a delegation late past year to North Korea to try to get Otto out in exchange for some humanitarian assistance".
The Hamilton County coroner is trying to determine the cause of Warmbier's death Monday.
"Was he tortured? Was he abused?" he posed.

New Zealand is now without a win in four trips to the Confederations Cup , and next plays Mexico on Wednesday in Sochi. In contrast, underdogs New Zealand must break their goal-drought to have a chance against Mexico .
But the trip made last week by Joseph Y. Yun, the top United States envoy on North Korea, was starkly different.
"The question is, do I think the past administration could have done more?" he said. However, other senior U.S. officials said the administration's policy hinges on pressuring North Korea through China.
"The United States once again condemns the brutality of the North Korean regime as we mourn its latest victim".
"They were very concerned", Richardson told Baldwin.
Trump's administration is considering a ban on Americans visiting North Korea. It said his medical records from an air ambulance service that brought him to OH and from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he was hospitalized until his death Monday, have been reviewed, and the treating physicians have been interviewed extensively.

The United Nations has blacklisted hundreds of North Korean entities, but many of them try to get business done though China, according to US officials. North Korean drones are known to have flown over South Korea several times. The United States and its allies would like to see an oil embargo and bans on the North Korean airline and guest workers among other moves, steps diplomats say have been resisted by China and Russian Federation. "They're used as bargaining chips". That would only slightly add to the North's isolation and loss of revenue.
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis says the American people are growing increasingly frustrated over the government in North Korea that "provokes, provokes and provokes".
