Kim Kardashian made a big revelation: After Ryan Murphy’s book about the Menendez brothers came out, Kim called for them to be freed. In an opinion piece for NBC News on October 3, she said she thought the brothers shouldn’t spend the rest of their lives in jail. She wrote, “I don’t think anyone would say they are the same person they were at 18. ” I’m not guilty.
The piece talks about how the brothers’ father abused them, how their second trial was unfair, and how good they were in jail. She thinks the outcome would have been different if the crime had been tried today. She asked if their life sentences would be reconsidered.
The most controversial part of Kardashian’s op-ed might be when she talks about the O.J. Simpson trial to explain the Menendez trial: After more than four months, O.J. Simpson was charged with killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman, according to what she says.
Then, eight days after Simpson was found not guilty, the second trial for Erik and Lyle began with opening statements.” Robert Kardashian, Kardashian’s father, defended Simpson in his trial. While Kardashian doesn’t say more about the link in the op-ed, it seems like she’s implying that the case was such an embarrassment for the L.A. district attorney’s office that it led to the Menendez brothers’ terrible second trial. The Kardashians will always find a way to make the L.A. DA look bad.
