The Menendez brothers, Lyle and Eriksome of the most notorious criminals in the US. They gained “popularity” by brutally killing their own parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their home in Beverly Hills. The crime took place in 1989. Since then, the media has been constantly interested in the brothers who were sentenced to life imprisonment. Especially since there have been voices for years that the men should be released from prison.
Recently, the case of the Menendez brothers received new publicity thanks to the Netflix series. This is currently one of the hottest topics on the internet – not just in the US. The following people took part in the public debate: Kim Kardashianclaiming that the brothers should be released. Interestingly, the lawyers of Lyle and Erik have submitted new documents trying to hear the murder case more than 35 years ago. The men will be questioned again soon.
Love under the shadow of crime
At first the brothers tried to hide their guilt by pretending to be a murderer, but the investigation quickly revealed that they were involved. After a series of trials that attracted a lot of media attention, the brothers were convicted in 1996 life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
The Menendez brothers said their actions were the result of physical, psychological and sexual abuse they said they suffered at the hands of their father, a famous Hollywood businessman. They also accused their mother of ignoring the situation. However, the prosecutor’s office argued that the motive for the crime was greed. Shortly after the murder, the brothers began to spend large sums of their parents’ fortune on luxuries.
Interestingly, the bad reputation did not prevent the brothers from meeting women and even entering the ranks marital relations.
Who are the wives of the Menendez brothers?
Currently, Lyle and Erik are married. Interestingly, their spouses knew very well that they had been convicted of double murder. Erik has a more stable love life than his brother. He has been married since 1999 Tammy Saccoman. Their relationship began with an exchange of letters when Erik was already serving his sentence. Tammi described their unusual relationship in the book “They Said We’d Never Make It: My Life with Erik Menendez.”
I didn’t intend to get involved in a relationship with Eric, though […] it is a very good relationship – she said in 2005 on NBC. However, he does not hide that the ban on visits in prison is “very difficult” for his spouse.
The couple has no children, but Erik is stepfather to Tammi’s daughter from her previous relationship. For obvious reasons, the spouses do not have the opportunity to have sex. Tammi spoke about this topic in an interview with People magazine.
The lack of sex in my life is difficult, but for me it is not a problem. I need to be emotionally attached, and I am emotionally attached to Eric… My family does not understand this. When things got bad, some of them threw up their hands – she explained.
Menendez speaks equally fondly of his wife. The media says she’s the one “keeping him alive.”
Men in the cells, women free
Lyle Menendez has already been on the wedding carpet of the prison twice. His first wife was a model Anna Erikssonwhom he married in 1996. The couple divorced 5 years later. The reason for the breakup of the marriage was Lyle’s infidelity.
In 2003, Menendez married for the second time, to Rebecca Sneed. He had known her for over ten years before they got married. At that time, Rebecca was working as a journalist. However, she changed careers and is now a lawyer. Menendez and Sneed have no children.
Even though Lyle is in prison and may never get out, their relationship is stable. The couple keep in regular contact, especially on the phone.
Maybe we have more intimate conversations than most each otherwhich are disturbed by life events – this is how Lyle proposed his marriage to Rebecca in People magazine in 2007.
If the brothers manage to convince the court of their reasons for the crime and thus go free, they will be able to be with their wives every day. This would be a real test of their long-distance marriage.

and even reading about the testimony of witnesses, I can’t be sure if I were like them, that there was terrible pathology and cruelty there.
To me, you have to be extremely disturbed to get involved with a man who is in prison for murder. I feel sorry for their families.
Thousands of people can’t organize their lives and find their other half, and here are the wives of brothers who have been convicted of murder. I understand this is a sick situation and these women must have serious mental issues too, but it’s still crazy to me
They enjoy their married life because they don’t spend the whole day at home. They may see each other from time to time and think they have a good life and a good relationship. Everything changes if they are ever released. As was the case with Gypsy Rose, who killed her mother. There is too much going on in this new world, especially since they went to prison in the 1990s.
These brothers are not a threat to these women or to society. Get to know the issue. Forced from childhood by their father with their mother’s consent. Murder was their last option to protect their younger brother, and his father did not allow him to leave home.
The women are more concerned than they are
Final Thoughts (20)
In my opinion, what they say about a lousy father and mother who pretended not to see anything is true. Of course, this does not justify their actions.
The best thing is that they have millions of followers around the world who “fight” for their freedom. A normal, carefree person despises murderers, and here they are actually fighting over them. And not women, but also many people from different walks of life. They are famous and have become celebrities. After leaving prison, they would literally be millionaires again, and what’s more, they would be influential and desirable people. And it’s all thanks to people. A prisoner used to have no expectations after leaving his cell, he was like a dog, people ran away from him, and now the prisoners are the worst murderers, who have fame, money and can to have everything.

Both of them have the scary eyes of psychopaths. Even though they were abused by their parents, they are satisfied that they killed them, they have no regrets. If they are released, they will unfortunately become celebrities in today’s stupid world. Sick.
we don’t want such information on the box, it’s not good, the box is not the place for such information

and after leaving the courtyard, he strangles them for disbelief and theft, because he does not believe that they can live without sex and without money.
It’s weird… I read it but didn’t want to read any more
I don’t know if it’s a good idea to get them out of jail, their wives will piss them off and kill them, who knows
The women are more worried than they are
It is a disease when women join men in prison for such serious crimes. It needs to be handled. The families do not surprise me at all.
such a tragedy and how much money they have made on the side thanks to netflix… wow.
