Kim Kardashian made a point of paying homage to Nathaniel Woods, victim according to her of a failure of the American legal system. The man was indeed executed last night for his role in the assassination of three police officers in Alabama in 2004.
Despite the efforts of his lawyers, after one of his accomplices confessed and claimed that Nathaniel Woods was not guilty of this triple murder, Kay Ivey, the Republican governor of Alabama, refused to suspend the 'execution.
Nate will die for a crime another man confessed to and says Nate had nothing to do with. My heart and prayers are with Nate and his family and all the advocates who worked tirelessly to save his life.

Not just a sex symbol
Until recently rather known for her sextape, her photos on social networks, her forms and her reality TV shows, Kim Kardashian has not hesitated, for several years, to put her enormous popularity at the service of prisoners' rights. Received this week at the White House by Donald Trump to speak about prison reform, the woman of Kanye West also helped to release several detainees sentenced to long sentences for crimes without violence.
The first to benefit from Kim Kardashian's engagement was Alice Marie Johnson, a grandmother detained over 20 years for a non-violent drug case.
