CRUEL North Korean jailers and twisted doctors conducted unspeakable tortures on American captive Otto Warmbier in an evil attempt to erase his mind and force him to confess he was a U.S. spy, charge military experts. Sadly, Otto, 22, died without gaining consciousness — or being able to name his killers — in a Cincinnati hospital less than a week after being released by North Korea, where he had spent 18 months in captivity. But retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer believes Otto was repeatedly shot full of mind-numbing drugs like sodium pentothal, which leaves no physical marks. The crippling concoctions reduce victims to a zombielike status, and the savaged youth never woke from his trance. “He was tortured not so much by pulling out fingernails, but by repeated…

AFTER banging his head in a nasty spill while battling a slew of health issues, former game show host Bob Barker is fading fast, and friends fear he’ll be dead in just two months. “He’s been getting more and more frail, and there’s a lot of concern that one of these days he’ll take a fall that’s deadly or suffer a stroke and that will be the end,” a Hollywood insider tells GLOBE, worrying Bob could be gone in nine weeks! “He’s on his last legs, I’m afraid, and doesn’t have long to live. Everyone is praying he’ll make it to 100, but at the rate he’s going, it doesn’t look likely.” The 93-year-old legend of The Price Is Right, which he hosted for 35 years, fell and hit his…

FRANTIC to save her crumbling marriage to hunky James Brolin, wrinkling diva Barbra Streisand has gone all out with plastic surgery and is now totally unrecognizable — except for her iconic NOSE! “It’s the only thing left on her face that looks like her,” says New Jersey cosmetic surgeon Dr. Lyle Back, who hasn’t treated the Yentl star. “She’s left her nose intact, which is smart — because it’s her calling card. But virtually everything else is far afield from what everyone identifies as her looks.” Sadly, insiders say the 75-yearold Funny Girl reconstructed her face because her marriage is on the ropes — with an ugly $550 million divorce war looming. Her marriage is hanging by a thread & she’s desperate to look younger “Barbra is desperate to keep…

ONLY IN GLOBE FURIOUS Queen Elizabeth has told grandson Harry she’ll NEVER attend his wedding to actress Meghan Markle — because the divorced TV actress “isn’t a good fit” with the royal family, stunned palace insiders reveal! Now, lovestruck Harry is threatening to disown his entire family and move to America, where he and his biracial beauty can live free of royal rules and restrictions! Harry’s big brother, William, is begging the rabid redhead not to do “anything rash,” a courtier says. “But Harry sees the queen’s refusal to give him permission to marry Meghan — a royal tradition — or attend a ceremony as a shocking insult to the woman he loves. In Harry’s mind, the queen and the rest of the Windsor clan look down their noses at…

JAPAN’S Emperor Akihito has had enough! The 83-yearold will step down, likely by end of 2018, making him the country’s first monarch to abdicate in more than 200 years! Akihito is not the only aging royal weary of the gig. As GLOBE reported last year, Britain’s retiring Queen Elizabeth has been handing over more and more of her duties to favored heirs William and Kate, and Her Majesty’s consort, Prince Philip, recently announced his intended withdrawal from public life.…

MOVIE heroine Carrie Fisher’s family had good reason to scuttle an autopsy on the tragic star — a newly released explosive coroner’s report reveals the junkie Star Wars princess had a killer cocktail of illegal and prescription drugs in her system the day she died! But in the immediate aftermath of the Dec. 27, 2016, tragedy, family members tried to protect the 60-year-old actress’ image by pointing to the initial — but inconclusive — results indicating she died from sleep apnea and heart failure during a flight from London to L.A. Despite the shocking spin by relatives and government officials, GLOBE reported the REAL truth in its Jan. 16, 2017, edition — Carrie was killed by a MASSIVE drug rampage and the facts were being cremated with her body!
