A French court will decide today if ten people are guilty of robbing Kim Kardashian back in 2016. The group faces charges for stealing almost $10 million worth of jewelry from the reality TV star during her Paris visit. Nine men and one woman have been on trial since April for the shocking crime.
Masked robbers broke into Kardashian's luxury apartment on October 2nd that year. They tied her up and pointed guns at her before taking her expensive jewelry. The thieves stole a diamond ring worth 3.5 million euros that Kanye West had given her.
Most suspects are elderly men between 60 and 70 years old. People started calling them the Grandpa Robbers because of their advanced age. Prosecutors want the four main attackers to serve 10 years behind bars for their crimes.
Aomar Ait Khedache is 69 and admitted he tied up Kardashian during the robbery. His lawyers say a long prison sentence would basically be a death sentence at his age. Kardashian said she thought she would die that night, but later forgave Khedache after he wrote her an apology letter.
Media crews from around the world gathered outside the Paris courthouse, waiting for the verdict. Kardashian has since finished law school after six years of studying. The case has fascinated people globally for almost ten years since it happened.
