Eight Convicted in Kim Kardashian Paris Robbery

Eight men, mostly in their 60s and 70s and known as the 'grandpa robbers,' were convicted by a French court for their roles in the 2016 armed robbery of Kim Kardashian in Paris, during which she was held at gunpoint and robbed of approximately $10 million in jewelry, including a $4 million engagement ring. The convicted men will not serve additional prison time, as their sentences were covered by pretrial detention, with the court citing their advanced age and health as factors for the leniency. Two defendants, accused of providing information about Kardashian's whereabouts, were acquitted. Kardashian called the incident the most terrifying experience of her life, thanked French authorities, and expressed hope for healing for all involved. Most of the stolen jewelry remains unrecovered. The case has drawn attention to issues of sentencing, accountability, and the lasting trauma experienced by Kardashian and her family.
