So I was watching this YouTube video about Otto Warmbier and other than the shear terror in his voice, the main thing that stuck out to me was that there were several white people presumably on the "jury".

Any of you guys that are pretty smart on North Korean politics have any clue who these people are and where they came from?

Russians maybe?

They appear to be press given that most of them have the armbands on.

People shipped in from the Birmingham SEC replay office for fair and impartial verdicts.

Probably political ambassadors sent over to attempt to advocate for him

I don't believe that dude is 22 though. He looks 35.

I read that one of the American deserters from way back has kids still over there, and they're true believers:

Wiki

Ted and James Dresnok

Seriously doubt they were there in that video, though.

There were only one or two white people and I assume they were foreign journalists.

That comment made no sense. Then again, most of yours don't.
