OPINION

Follow @sneedlings• Backshot: The robbers, who invaded Kardashian’s Paris penthouse not only gagged Kardashian, bound her hands with plastic zips ties and locked her in a bathroom — but she reportedly begged for her life in English, a language the robbers reportedly didn’t understand. The couple’s children, North, 3, and Saint, 10 months, were not present when the robbery occurred.
