The Menendez brothers have been a controversial story and debate since the day they killed their parents. Wondering why they did it? Wondering how long-term sustained abuse can lead 2 boys to murder their parents? Wondering why we are looking at it through a new lens today than we did 35 years ago? From the psyche of the abused mind to the changes in gender roles, media, and societal norms, join us in this riveting analysis of the 2 boys who have been behind bars for 35 years. Just? Unjust? Should we free the Menendez boys?
