Kim Kardashian paid the brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez a visit at the San Diego jail where they are serving life sentences, following the release of the contentious Netflix documentary about the siblings who were found guilty of killing their parents in 1989.

In recent years, Kardashian has advocated for criminal justice reform using her platform, going on tours of many jails in California alongside film director Scott Budnick, who established the Anti-Recidivism Coalition.

According to Budnick, HuffPost, the two had previously made plans to visit the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility. However, Budnick informed Kardashian that the Mendendez brothers were there and that their visit to the prison was "expedited" when she met Cooper Koch, one of the actors of the dramatization of the case, "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story."

Koch's character Erik Menendez, who appears in "Monsters," issued a statement via his spouse denouncing the program and labeling it as "full of lies." Despite its shortcomings, Budnick told HuffPost that the brothers "understand the net positive" of the show.

Regarding the Ryan Murphy-created Netflix series, Budnick remarked, "I know that both of them understand that, ultimately, the series is a fair series that shows their arrogance, but also shows that they went through sexual abuse and trauma that none of us would wish on our worst enemy."

At the jail, Kardashian's mother Kris Jenner and sister Khloé accompanied her. There, they met with around forty guys, including the Menendez brothers, according to Budnick.

Budnick remarked, "I thought it was really lovely to see the pride on Kris' face as she watched Kim discover her passion for helping others and giving back." "Kris expressed her admiration for Kim taking up this cause and how moved she was by everyone's testimonies and stories in a very moving way."

According to Budnick, Koch also had one-on-one meetings with Erik Menendez.

According to Budnick, there are "win-win" outcomes from the jail visits for both Kardashian and the inmates. Perhaps more crucial, though, is that the reality TV star gives "hope and inspiration to people on the inside that are working really, really hard to change their lives." Her extensive social media following aids in promoting rehabilitation facilities.

"The most common complaint I hear from insiders is that they feel invisible. They feel as though they have been completely erased from society, that no one even knows who they were in the past, and that no one sees them, hears them, or understands who they are now, according to Budnick.

One of Budnick's objectives, according to Kardashian, is "to let her see different aspects of the criminal justice system," as she has been studying law and will be sitting for the bar test the following year.
