The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star got the Pennsylvania inmate, who was charged with second-degree murder and theft, out of prison just in time for the holidays.

Sheppard was accused of shooting pharmacy owner Thomas Brannan in 1992. He was pardoned by the state, stating that he was not the shooter.

THE 1992 SHOOTING

During a robbery in the year 1992, Sheppard's accomplice had shot and killed Branan. Although Sheppard was not the one who pulled the trigger, he served a long sentence.

After serving for three decades, he had finally packed his belongings to head back home. However, he was yet again hindered by a robbery charge.

Apparently, Sheppard was also charged with the robbery of 5 pairs of jeans pants worth $324.95 in total from the "Jeans West Store" back in 1992.

THE RETAIL THEFT CHARGE

Although the "Jeans West Store" does not even exist in today's date, the law is the law and a crime is a crime, but the beauty mogul had a different take on the matter.

She also went on to claim that this was an "abuse of prosecutorial authority" on the part of the district attorney’s office and a "shameful waste of public resources."

The Delaware County D.A.’s office finally moved to rescind the warrant for the retail theft charge paving the way for his Tuesday release, with a 2020 date fixed to address the court.
