Erik and Lyle Menendez have spent nearly 30 years in prison for the double murder of their parents. This week in Los Angeles, a judge is set to consider whether they should be resentenced.
The brothers were sentenced in 1996 to life in prison without the possibility of parole for murdering their father Jose Menendez and mother Kitty Menendez in their Beverly Hills home in 1989. Their case reached a major turning point last year when then- Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón said he was reviewing new evidence in the case.
