Manage episode 350280030 series 3376535
Kirn Kim is a former Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate student and son of a prominent physician in California’s North Orange County Korean community. Kirn Kim fits the stereotypical mold assigned to many Asian-American teens. However, at the age of 16, Mr. Kim was tried as an adult and sentenced to 25 years to life in prison as part of a high-profile case that became known as the “Honor Roll Murder.” Mr. Kim earned parole in 2012 after serving 20 years. He has since spoken on issues of criminal and juvenile justice reform, and the culture of shame and the model minority myth in the Asian/Pacific Islander community.
