 That’s Not Fair - Kim Kardashian Says Prisoners Who Fought L.A. Wildfires Were Paid 'Just a Few Dollars,' and She Wants to Change That A renewed push for prison labor reform is gaining attention, with Kim Kardashian stepping in to support new legislation aimed at changing how incarcerated workers are paid. The bill, reintroduced on March 19 by Cory Booker, seeks to ensure that people working while incarcerated receive at least the federal minimum wage. It also proposes limits on deductions for fees, fines, and living costs within correctional facilities, through amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act. Kardashian, who has increasingly focused on criminal justice reform, explained that her support is rooted in what she witnessed during the Los Angeles wildfires.  “I personally watched incarcerated people who risked their lives battling the massive wildfires,” she said, pointing out that many were paid only a few dollars a day despite doing the same high-risk work as profess...

EX-PRESIDENT YOON CHALLENGES LIFE SENTENCE FOR INSURRECTION CONVICTION. (PHOTO)



Ex-president Yoon challenges life sentence for insurrection conviction

Former President Yoon Suk Yeol has appealed his life sentence following his conviction for insurrection related to his failed attempt to impose martial law. His legal team filed the appeal on Tuesday, five days after a court sentenced him to life in prison for leading the insurrection on Dec. 3, 2024.
In a statement, Yoon’s lawyers said they felt a duty to highlight issues with the ruling for both court records and historical records. They criticized the special counsel’s indictment as overreaching and called the court’s decision contradictory, suggesting political influences played a role. The Seoul Central District Court had ruled that Yoon’s actions—sending troops to the National Assembly compound after declaring martial law—constituted an insurrection under the Constitution. The court also noted that Yoon personally planned and led the effort, causing significant social harm while showing little remorse.
Seven other officials received sentences alongside Yoon, including former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, former National Police Agency chief Cho Ji-ho, and former Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency chief Kim Bong-sik. Kim was sentenced to 30 years, Cho to 12 years, and Kim Bong-sik to 10 years for their roles in the martial law attempt. Yoon had previously received a five-year sentence in a separate case over allegations of obstructing investigators trying to detain him last year.
