Kim Kardashian to meet grandmother freed from prison

Alice Marie Johnson, the Tennessee grandmother whose life sentence for nonviolent drug charges was commuted by President Trump at the behest of Kim Kardashian, will meet the reality TV star in person, according to a report.

Kardashian and her team are working to arrange a meeting as early as this week with Johnson, 63, who spent 22 years behind bars before Trump decided she deserved a break from the harsh sentence, TMZ reported.

“BEST NEWS EVER!!!!” Kardashian tweeted Wednesday.

“So grateful to @realDonaldTrump, Jared Kushner & to everyone who has showed compassion & contributed countless hours to this important moment for Ms. Alice Marie Johnson. Her commutation is inspirational & gives hope to so many others who are also deserving of a second chance.”
