Has Kim Kardashian staked her claim on Lyle and Erik Menendez? The brothers are currently preparing for a new trial, or at the very least, a resentencing hearing.

Keep reading for more details.

Kim Kardashian Stakes Her Claim On Menendez Brothers

Growing up with Robert Kardashian as a very prominent attorney, Kim Kardashian witnessed him in action. One of the biggest trials he was ever involved in was the OJ Simpson trial. Simpson had been charged with murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. After Simpson was acquitted of the murder, things changed dramatically as Nicole was Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner’s best friend. As Kim got older, she realized she was very into changing the world, prison reform, and the law so she began her law studies.

There are a lot of steps as she is not going through the traditional route but she is trying to be an advocate as much as possible. As soon as Gypsy Rose Blanchard was released from prison for the murder of her mother, Kim met with her. Gypsy was a victim of Munchausen by proxy and wanted to be a victim advocate which Kim loved. Regarding  Lyle and Erik Menendez, their case is not cut and dry. More has come out as they were allegedly sexually abused by their father. Kim has been leading the charge to help free them and is taking them under her wing.

A post shared by Kim Kardashian (@kimkardashian)


According to In Touch Weekly, Kim Kardashian allegedly considers the Menendez brothers her friends. An insider shared how they feel about the mogul in return:

“Erik and Lyle are truly grateful for all that Kim has done for them so far. She’s brought a powerful, high-profile voice to their cause, and she’s been unwavering in her commitment, there’s really no way to quantify what her support has done for them.”

Furthermore, Kim has spent time getting to truly know the brothers. She knows what life will be like when they are released and it won’t be easy:

“She’s had deep, intellectual conversations with Erik and Lyle and she genuinely believes in them. They’re not just a cause for her, she considers them friends and when they do get out, which she believes will happen soon, they’ll be like fish out of water.”

Too Much For Kim?

Though Kim Kardashian has become very passionate about this case, some fans feel she needs to take a step back. More so, they believe that there are more pressing cases she needs to involve herself with. Finally, they want to know where Kim and her advocacy were years ago when Lyle and Erik were first incarcerated:

  • This women will do anything to stay in the line light. Its so cringe 😬 I really wish the whole family would just disappear and never have to hear the names again
  • My brother is doing 10 years for a small drug charge in California why should they get out
  • Childhood trauma is not a free pass to end a life Kim. BFFR

Regardless of what her followers have been saying, Kim is going to keep trying and advocating for the brothers. Do you think she is taking this too far or do you appreciate her passion? Let us know in the comments below.
