Kim Kardashian’s Ex-Boyfriend’s Mother Shares Her Experience Of Testifying In A Murder Trial

Kim Kardashian, now 36, has spoken about the “insane” time she had to testify in the murder trial of her ex-boyfriend’s mother when she was just 14 years old. Kim was dating Michael Jackson’s nephew TJ at the time of the June 1998 trial for the death of TJ’s mother, Dee Dee.

Tito Jackson’s ex-wife, Delores “Dee Dee” Martes Jackson, was discovered dead in the pool of her boyfriend Donald Bohana’s home in Ladera Heights, California, in August 1994. Bohana was found guilty of second-degree murder in November 1998 and given a sentence of 15 years to life in prison.

In December 2022, he was released from prison after serving 24 years. Kardashian discussed her involvement in the trial in an interview with Vogue Italia published on Monday.

“My dad was going through all those trials and it was pretty intense in my life,” she said. “My boyfriend’s mother whom I was really close with was murdered in 1994 and I had to be part of that trial.”

Asked how she became active, the television personality shared: “I had to testify and was there every day with my boyfriend. I was just 14, you know.” “To have that experience at such a young age was insane,” she added. “And it was also back-to-back with the OJ trial, there was just a lot of layers there.” Check tweet:

Since then, Kardashian has taken an interest in helping to overhaul the criminal justice system. In 2017, she began working on behalf of Alice Marie Johnson, who had been incarcerated since her conviction in October 1996 for facilitating communications in a narcotics trafficking case.

Kourtney Kardashian called President Barack Obama’s decision not to grant clemency to former prisoner Gary Johnson “unfair.” Kardashian’s support for exoneration efforts didn’t end when Johnson was freed from jail in August 2020.

In December 2021, Kardashian took and passed the bar exam for first-year law students. Khloé Kardashian said that getting over the “baby bar” was a major accomplishment in an interview with Vogue Italia.

“My daughter was there with me,” she said. “For a long time, it was difficult for her to understand why I was studying all the time. She saw me fail and cry, she saw how I was no different than her when she was worried because of a test.” “But when she saw me cry from joy, I knew she understood how important that achievement was to me personally,” the star added.
