Kim Kardashian Advocates For Death Row Inmate Melissa Lucio On Twitter
The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian is proving once again that she is serious about becoming a lawyer as she is advocating for death row inmate Melissa Lucio on her Twitter account.

The star regularly worked with former President Donald Trump while in office to free incarcerated Americans she believed were innocent or serving much harsher punishments than they deserved.
