This market will close YES if a reputable publication confirms King defected to North Korea (AKA, I won't take any statement by North Korea without confirmation).
This market will close NO if it is confirmed King is/was being detained and still holds allegience to the USA.
TLDR:
King was finishing a detention for various events (assaulting a guy at a club, destruction of public goods, etc.)
King was about to board a plane to go back to the US to join up with his unit there.
Instead of getting on the plane to go HOME, he said he forgot his passport, and ran away.
He then crossed the border. Neither his mother nor the any authorities know King's motives.

Yikes. Did not expect that kind of crime he was fleeing from, even though it was rumored on reddit.
