Menendez Brothers Resentenced to Life With Parole Eligibility

Erik and Lyle Menendez have been resentenced to 50 years to life in prison, making them eligible for parole after serving more than 30 years for the murder of their parents in 1989. A California judge granted their resentencing bid, which opens the door for a potential release and paves the way for their freedom. Following a series of hearings and decisions, the judge has considered their case and determined that they pose a moderate risk if released. This ruling has sparked reactions from experts and supporters alike as the Menendez brothers prepare for a possible new chapter in their lives.
