Kim Kardashian West has put her considerable influence behind a push to stop the impending execution of a man who killed two people when he was 18 and has been on death row for 20 years

Brandon Bernard was convicted of the 1999 kidnapping and killing of youth ministers Todd and Stacie Bagley on a military reservation in Texas. A federal jury found him guilty in 2000 of two counts of murder within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States and unanimously recommended a death sentence.Bernard is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection December 10 -- a deadline that spurred the celebrity's plea.

For one, scientific studies have shown that teenagers' brains are not fully developed and that young people are more likely to take serious risks and less able to control their impulses in stressful situations. Some advocates say this evidence indicates young people should not be executed for things they did in their youth without fully developed brains.In addition, the case pitted five Black defendants accused of killing two White victims.

If Kim wants to be charitable, has to go to spent a night with him, before he goes to hell for the crimes that he has committed. !

C’mon!!! You do the crime, you do the time! Barreta!!!

KimKardashian for president 2024

Nope.....kill him. He has it coming!!!

Fuck that. Let him him die.

Kidnapped, murdered & tried to hide the bodies of two witnesses to another crime said “saint” was implicated in. Two White murder victims. Hey KimKardashian IvankaTrump jaredkushner but he should be excused as he was a teenager, huh? OANN

Sacrifice her instead and he will be spared

Am like for real he took two peoples life why does he need to live

Don’t know how this will turn out, but if it is execution he better hurry if he prefers lethal injection; because Trump’s puppet AG Bill Barr is rushing to start firing squads.

Dave96680179 The entire story is just sad! I have to say that I feel for the victims and their families tho.....what about them? They lost two innocent loved ones.

Life without Parole.

Follow me and I follow back asap TRUST ME 💯

He still has to face God and the two victims.

If I was on death row and was forced to meet Kim Kardashian or Kanye West I would rather you strap me into the chair I'll pull my own switch

Capital Punishment for been a non-White person again? Sure, he has a debt to society, specially to the families who lost their love ones!!! But no an Execution!!!

All the arguments on both sides aside, I wonder if Kim would be so intent on saving this man if the two people he killed were members of her own family.

Let me get this straight - she's trying to stop someone from being executed for killing 2 people - lets go back in time - her father - God rest his soul - helped OJ - get off for killing 2 people - it must run in the family.

So now she does not even attempt to claim that he did not do it.

She should also use her wifely influence to get her husband to stop thinking he will be ever be U.S President.

What influence?

The Election is over. Trump ain’t freeing anymore black person from prison.

Kill her instead. That would cause must more good than harm to society.

I’m a black bleeding heart socialist. Kill him back. I don’t care what his involvement was. Did it contribute to the deaths of two innocent people? Did he get to live another 20 years they didn’t? Kill him. I believe in the death penalty when warranted

He is not a white thug or realDonaldTrump criminal friends

The thought of spending life in prison just to die of old age sounds miserable and worse than just being put down.

influence? Really? Maybe by you CNN

Well she is wrong about this one. He burned a young woman alive as she sat in her car still breathing with a bullet in her head

I thought it said her considerable behind

Wish she'd put her considerable influence behind getting her husband some help

I typically have zero nice things to say about her, but I’m glad she is tweeting about something worthwhile and bringing attention to an important topic.

I’m sorry but... no. At the very least it should remain a life sentence.

Trump is technically done and should not be permitted to push any more agendas. Besides he prefers to do nothing so give him his wish!

You mean attorneys she won’t credit. Stop with the BS story.

KimKardashian is doing this? 😆 sure. You mean the lawyers working for her are the ones doing it. She's just the face of it

Do crime do time

Why is anybody even listening to Kim kardashian who didn’t even go to an actual law school.

Trump has murdered 300,000 Americans so far

So he kills 2 people and has been provided shelter, food and clothing for 20 years, if Kim wants to keep him alive then maybe she should pay the cost of what it takes to keep him alive in prison.

Was there some new evidence that shows he’s possibly innocent?

The worse part about the death penalty. Its funny how they let the serial killer mafia dudes live. Make movies about them...

How does she pick who deserves to not be executed? The current President pardons anyone she asks for, so, would be good to know.

KimKardashian can take his place. Bye felicia.

strange. I must have missed the Tweet where she used her considerable influence behind a push to stop the pain and loss of the families of the two people he murdered. stop making excuses for the bad life decisions some people make and stop giving them free passes.

thanks for this news

So.. a man who- AS AN ADULT- helped murder 2 people, & has been living off the state for 2 decades, is finally going to be disposed of. K

why did she say 'crime he committed as a teenager' it wasn't just a crime lol and he was 18 hello?
