Danny Trejo Wants Kim Kardashian To Keep The Focus On Helping VictimsThe legendary actor aimed particularly at Kardashian's recent comments, stating that her stance is misguided. While she may mean well, he says turning the focus toward political debates like inmate pay shifts attention away from what truly mattersāhelping the victims of the devastating wildfires.
Trejo, who reportedly knows the system firsthand from his days as an inmate firefighter, argues that incarcerated firefighters receive more than just financial compensation.Ā
According to TMZ, he highlights how these individuals volunteer for the dangerous job in exchange for significant reductions in their sentencesāsomething the 80-year-old insists they value far more than money.

He also points out that even if inmate firefighters were paid more, most of it would go toward restitution, leaving them with little in their pockets.Ā

Kardashian Demanded Higher Pay For Inmate FirefightersTrejo's comments come in response to Kardashian's call for more recognition and higher pay for these unsung heroes. The reality TV star recently took to Instagram to tag Governor Gavin Newsom, calling for action to raise wages for the inmates risking their lives on the frontlines.
Per TMZ's report, Kardashian pointed out that these individuals are working grueling hours under dangerous conditions for just $1 an hourāa rate she argued is unacceptable, especially given the massive scale of the disaster.
Reports indicate that around 1,000 inmates are assisting in combating the wildfires, which have already burned over 40,000 acres and claimed at least 16 lives. Despite the dangers, no inmate firefighter deaths have been reported.
