Show Notes
It's been 36 years (to the day, 8/20/1989) since Erik and Lyle Menendez killed their parents- and it's always been about the why. The Menendez brothers will have their parole hearings this Thursday, 8/21 and Friday 8/22, after an LA County Superior Court judge reduced their sentences from life in prison without the possibility of parole to 50 years to life. Emmy-winning journalist Robert Rand provides a fresh update on the Menendez Brothers case, 36 years after Lyle and Erik were convicted of murdering their parents. Rand talks the new evidence, including a 1988 letter from Erik detailing abuse by their father, Jose, which could sway the court toward parole eligibility. Rand also discusses the brothers’ ongoing fight for freedom and the impact of his book, The Menendez Murders, in reshaping public perception.
