During Fashion Week in 2016, the socialite was attacked by a group of armed and masked individuals in the apartment she was renting. They tied her up, gagged her, and held her hostage for several hours while they looted all her jewelry. In the end, the criminals made off with $10 million worth of jewelry, including the $3.2 million engagement ring given to her by Kanye West.

After years of investigation, and following the determination in 2021 that the case would go to trial, now Kim Kardashian must appear in court next May. Although she had already presented the situation to a judge, she will now testify for the first time before a jury, as reported by The Mirror.
Kim Kardashian and the trauma she experienced
The aforementioned media outlet recalled Kim Kardashian’s account of the trauma she experienced. The 44-year-old businesswoman also revealed that during the robbery, she feared she would be raped, even lamented, thinking she would be killed, and the shock her sister Kourtney experienced upon finding her body.
After the model was robbed, the gang that targeted her became known as the Kardashian’s 12. The thieves were attracted to the photos she posted of her jewelry on her social media.
Kardashian is going through a legal process not only for the theft of her jewelry, but she is also considering her lawyers for the father of her children, Kanye West, as she wants to prevent him from negatively affecting the kids during their encounters.
“It’s frustrating for her to always have to be on high alert. She finds it ridiculous to need her lawyer on speed dial every time Kanye has an outburst,” said a close source. In response to this, she requested an emergency custody hearing, seeking to ensure a safe environment for her children.
