Description
Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón said Thursday his office is actively reviewing the case of Erik and Lyle Menendez, who were convicted of killing their parents in Beverly Hills in 1989, in light of renewed allegations of sexual abuse by their father, but no decisions have been made about whether the brothers might be entitled to a new trial or re-sentencing.
Attorneys for the Menendez brothers filed court papers last year seeking to have their convictions overturned, and a hearing on the matter is scheduled for Nov. 26. Interest in the case has also been renewed of late thanks to the release of a Netflix documentary.
