Kim Kardashian has reportedly decided not to get involved in the legal case of Mackenzie Shirilla, who requested her help to overturn her conviction.

According to PEOPLE, Shirilla said she wants help from Kardashian and even asked her to be her lawyer.

The renewed attention comes after Netflix released The Crash, a documentary revisiting the 2022 car crash that killed Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan.

A source close to Kardashian told TMZ that she advocates for criminal justice reform by supporting individuals she believes were wrongfully convicted, as well as people within the prison system who have demonstrated rehabilitation and deserve a fair second chance.

This case does not fall within her focus, the source added.

Mackenzie Shirilla was convicted in 2023 of murder, aggravated vehicular homicide and related charges connected to the 2022 crash.

Prosecutors argued that she intentionally crashed the car since there were no signs of skidding or applying the brakes.
