Barbie Kardashian Released From Limerick Prison Under Two-Year Supervision Order

Tight conditions with recall for any breach follow court risk findings.

Overview

  • A jury convicted her of seven threat offences against her mother in 2020, and she served two years and six months of a five-and-a-half-year sentence with the final 12 months suspended.
  • The post-release order requires her to live at an address approved by gardaí and probation services, notify authorities of any change of address, and disclose new relationships.
  • Any breach of the conditions or attempts to contact her parents could trigger a Section 99 order returning her to custody.
  • Gardaí testified to "grave concerns" about her risk to the victim and the public, and five psychiatrists warned of a real danger she could act on violent fantasies.
  • Speaking outside prison, she denied being a public danger and said she intends to seek gender-affirming surgery, while the Irish Prison Service declined to comment on the case.
