Kim Kardashian testifies in Paris jewel heist trial DW 05/13/2025
Briefly

Kim Kardashian testified at a Paris court regarding her traumatic robbery in 2016, where thieves posed as police officers, invaded her hotel room, and stole millions in jewelry. During her testimony, she expressed fears for her life and the lasting psychological impact of the ordeal, which led her to employ increased security measures. The individuals accused of the crime, referred to as the "grandpa gang," are associated with a crime ring that tracked Kardashian’s movements online, adding a layer of commentary on celebrity privacy.
I absolutely thought I was going to die. I thought about my sister, thought she would walk in and see me shot dead and have that memory in her forever.
The assailants did not hit me. I was grabbed, dragged into the other room, and thrown onto the floor, but wasn't hit.
The robbery changed the way I felt safe at home... now I have up to six security guards.
The suspects were part of a crime ring that tracked my movements through my Instagram posts.
