Could this be why Kanye is sucking up to Trump?

Who is Alice Marie Johnson, the woman Kim Kardashian wants Trump to pardon?

Kim Kardashian is asking President Trump to pardon Alice Marie Johnson, a great-grandmother serving a life sentence for her role in a multimillion-dollar drug ring.

According to Mic, the reality star and mother of three has spoken to White House adviser Jared Kushner several times in an attempt to prioritize the 62-year-old’s case, since viewing a video on the publisher’s website featuring the woman and tweeting it to her 60 million followers.

Johnson has been imprisoned for 21 years since she was found guilty of drug conspiracy and money laundering in 1997, according to a 2013 profile by Mic.

sorry it is wrong to support an administration that is doing harm to millions to help one person.
