Erik and Lyle Menendez should be resentenced, Los Angeles DA says
Erik and Lyle Menendez – two brothers convicted of murdering their parents in a case that shook America more than three decades ago – should be resentenced by a judge, the Los Angeles County district attorney has recommended.
The 1989 murders of Kitty and Jose Menendez in their Beverly Hills mansion have griped the US for years and recently inspired a popular Netflix series.
The case centred on Erik and Lyle Menendez’s motive in the murders, in which their parents were shot 13 times as they watched television.
George Gascón, LA County’s top prosecutor, announced on Thursday that new evidence in the case merited a review of their life sentences.
A judge will now have a final say over whether the recommendation will lead to the Menendez brother’s release from prison after more than 30 years.
Erik Menendez, 53, and Lyle Menendez, 56, are currently serving life without parole in a California jail.
