She has nothing better to do?

Kim Kardashian decided to become an attorney at law in California, not by attending law school like Mike Slocumb probably did, but by reading the law books and hanging around a law firm. They allow this nonsense in California, by which I mean a state that is home to Kim and her family, the very kind of people who told Kim this is a good idea.

Take this simple test: if one of her family members gets into some sort of legal brouhaha (50-50 chance), are they going to consult a bona fide attorney, or get Kim's valuable input?

Free country, I realize, but let's take her at full value. She is calling for the Menendez brothers, those cuddly kids from Cali, to be granted their freedom, apparently in the belief that since their father was mean to Lyle Lyle Crocodile Menendez and his brother Erik, killing both of their parents is well within the law.

Someone  Kim wrote an essay published in the noted legal journal NBC News, saying that her “hope is that Erik and Lyle Menendez’s life sentences are reconsidered.”

“We are all products of our experiences. They shape who we were, who we are, and who we will be. Physiologically and psychologically, time changes us, and I doubt anyone would claim to be the same person they were at 18,” Kardashian wrote.

At ages 21 and 18, the brothers were sentenced to life without the possibility of parole, first degree murder style, for killing their parents in their Beverly Hills mansion. Their defense was that they were abused by their father and that their mother was in on it too. But no one believed that then, and no one should believe it now.

Kim believes in fighting for these two. This means she is taking her many minutes of law experience and trying to get two rich kids out of the cooler, instead of helping people who really need a lawyer, or some eye cream.

I remember those trials, and I remember their lawyers at the time had them show up in court wearing crew-neck sweaters, so they looked like a couple of frat boys on trial for stealing a goat mascot from State U.

L.A. County District Attorney George Gascón says his office will conduct an examination of this evidence that just materialized like pixie dust after 35 years because all this took place in the Land Of Make Believe.
