Menendez Brothers seek freedom based on new evidence of sexual abuse by father
Erik and Lyle Menendez, convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, are seeking freedom based on new evidence of sexual abuse by their father. Recent releases of a Netflix drama and a documentary have renewed public attention to their case. Prosecutors are recommending resentencing, potentially making them eligible for parole. A judge will decide whether to re-examine their convictions based on the new evidence before considering resentencing.
