EXCLUSIVE
Kim Kardashian West[1] will come face-to-face with the woman she helped to free from prison ... TMZ has learned.
Alice Marie Johnson had her life sentence commuted on Wednesday by President Trump[2] after spending 22 years behind bars. Kim championed Alice's release with the help of her attorney, Shawn Holley[3] ... communicating for months[4] with Jared Kushner[5] and Ivanka Trump[6].
Sources close to the situation tell us Kim and her team are working to arrange a meeting with Alice that could happen as early as this week.
Our sources say Kim will most likely travel to Alice -- not vice versa -- as the great-grandmother adjusts to life outside of prison[7]. Moments after she got out, Alice told reporters[8] she was thankful and felt as if her life was starting over again.
As we reported, Kim visited the White House[9] last week for a meeting with 45 about Alice's situation and prison reform in general.
Kim says Alice is just the first of many unfairly sentenced people she hopes to help regain freedom.
