Even The Maine Hermit Couldn’t Escape News About The Kardashians

It would seem that even becoming a hermit won’t stop you from hearing about the Kardashians .

Christopher Knight, a hermit for a total of 27 years, still knew about celebrity news despite his last conversation with another person being in the 90s.

For regular followers of The Inquisitr , this hermit will be familiar news due to coverage of his arrest in April .

Upon his arrest, the police had totalled his burglary count to just over a 1,000 break-ins.

Out of all the numerous items Knight pilfered, People magazine was one of them.

Furthermore, it seems he didn’t just stick to stealing one copy of the renowned glossy mag but also many more.

This unusual choice in essentials would place Knight as one of the most up-to-date hermits of this generations, especially when reports from individuals like Trooper Diane Vance are taken into consideration:

“When he mentioned the Kardashians, I kind of had to laugh. I don’t think my husband knows who the Kardashians are, but he did.”

Despite having amassed thousands of followers, not to mention several marriage proposals , Knight still has an undecided fate when it comes to his length of sentence.

When new district attorney, Maeghan Maloney, was asked to comment on the case she had this to say:

“When you have more than one victim, what becomes difficult is the range of punishment that victims would like to see. There are people who don’t see any need for jail time; there are people who think life imprisonment is appropriate.”

Moreover, the authorities intend to have Knight undertake a mental health examination before they continue with his charges.

Until such a time that the examination is possible – currently there is a huge backlog – Maloney will continue to review all the evidence from the case so far.

Regardless of how long that should take, it seems that Knight will be able to keep up with the Kardashians without having to resort to all too familiar criminal antics.
