Lyle and Erik Menendez, convicted for the 1989 murders of their parents, have been denied parole after recent hearings that reignited public interest and scrutiny over their case. Despite claims of past abuse and efforts to highlight their rehabilitation, the parole board determined that both brothers posed an unreasonable risk to public safety. Their denials followed a tumultuous week that involved leaked audio from their hearings and drew criticism from family members and advocates who argue that the process was flawed. As their legal battles continue, both men will have to wait at least 18 months before being eligible for another parole evaluation.
