The USA Today reported that Kardashian recounted the details with a calm but firm voice, saying, “One man held a gun to my head, and I begged him not to kill me.”
Back in the City That Traumatized Her
Kardashian had avoided returning to Paris for several years after the robbery. Her decision to appear in person has been widely praised. “It’s a huge moment,” noted a legal commentator on YouTube. “She’s confronting her trauma and demanding justice.”
The defendants include several men in their 60s and 70s, many with prior criminal records. French media have dubbed them “the grandpa gang.”
In 2022, 12 people were charged in connection with the robbery, and now several are finally standing trial.
Seeking Justice and Closure
According to the Los Angeles Times, Kardashian hopes her testimony will contribute to convictions. “I want them to know they can’t do this to people and walk away,” she said.
Her Paris testimony marks a rare moment of vulnerability and strength for one of the most famous celebrities in the world, and it has reignited global interest in celebrity safety, trauma, and high-profile crime.
