‘I AM GRATEFUL’

Kim Kardashian Praises L.A. Prosecutor’s Call to Resentence Menendez Bros

The media personality also commended the media focus on the injustices in the case, “especially on the heels of Ryan Murphy’s TV show.”

Kim Kardashian expressed her gratitude to Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón and the Menendez brother’s friends, families, and supporters on Thursday after Gascón said he would ask a judge to resentence Erik and Lyle, potentially paving the way to their release. “Thank you, George Gascón, for revisiting the Menendez brothers’ case and righting a significant wrong,” Kardashian wrote in a statement on her Instagram Story. “Your commitment to truth and fairness is commendable.” To the brothers’ loved ones and supporters, she added, “Your voices were heard. The media’s focus, especially on the heels of Ryan Murphy’s TV show, helped expose the abuse and injustices in their case.” Gascón said in a news conference that he would request the brothers’ prior life sentences be lifted, which would make them immediately eligible for parole. “I believe they have paid their debt to society,” he said. In her post, Kardashian, a longtime advocate for death row inmates across the country, said, “I believe in the justice system’s ability to evolve, and I am grateful for a society where we can challenge decisions and seek justice.”
