On Thursday, the reality TV star took to Instagram stories to share her thoughts after Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón recommended resentencing the pair, potentially making them eligible for parole.
"Thank you, George Gascón, for revisiting the Menendez brothers' case and righting a significant wrong," Kim began.
"Your commitment to truth and fairness is commendable," she added.
The SKIMS mogul also acknowledged the role of public support and the media, specifically Ryan Murphy's TV series Monsters: The Erik and Lyle Menéndez Story, in bringing attention to the case.
Kim believes that our understanding of child abuse has grown, and social media is helping people question unfair systems.
"This case highlights the importance of challenging decisions and seeking truth, even when guilt is not in question," the 44-year-old star said.
"Never stop questioning," she concluded her statement.
