On the evening of August 20, 1989, Erik and Lyle Menendez returned home to Beverly Hills. Then they made a shocking discovery. After entering the magnificent residence, they saw him the bodies of their parents. Jose and Kitty Menendez were shot. The brothers called the local police, who soon arrived at the scene and began an investigation. For some time, investigators had problems with establishing the motive and identity of the perpetrators of the crime. Soon the killers themselves attracted the attention of the investigators.
How were the brothers arrested and convicted?
Shortly after the death of their parents, Lyle and Erik began to spend their large fortune. In a few months they went out approximately $700,000. For this astronomical amount, they went on luxury vacations, bought a sports car and even a restaurant. Police investigators had been suspicious of him, but had no evidence to prove Menendezes’ guilt.
However, the investigators were lucky. Psychologist Jerome Oziel’s ex-girlfriend reported to the police. The woman decided to take revenge when the man dumped her. She then told investigators that Jerome had once shared with her a story he had heard from one of his patients. It was Erik Menendez, who admitted to a psychologist that he and his brother had killed their parents. The man did not contact law enforcement authorities because he was bound by medical confidentiality.
The brothers were quickly arrested and later arrested for the murder of their father and mother. The trial soon began and attracted great interest in the media. The case was followed by millions of Americans as the court hearings were televised. In the end, Erik and Lyle were sentenced to life imprisonment. In this case, the judge did not grant the opportunity to apply for parole. Everything indicated that the Menendezes would spend the rest of their lives in prison.

Events after the premiere of the series presenting the story of the Menendezes
New evidence in this case has recently given hope to the brothers and their loved ones. It’s about a letter Erik wrote to his cousin when his parents were still alive. Menendez admitted in this communication that he was afraid of his father, who visited him at night. This evidence seems to support the defense that the brothers fired at their parents because of the sexual abuse they suffered over the years at the hands of their father. They said they did it in self-defense.
The publicity caused by the premiere of the second season of the series “Monsters” could have put pressure on the prosecutor’s office, which became interested again in the case of Menendez. Interestingly, Erik, through his wife, complained that he was portrayed in the Netflix production in a way that was unfair to him.
Series creator Ryan Murphy also spoke. He admitted that he wished the Menendezes the best of luck. According to the director, Erik and Lyle can leave the prison before next Christmas. It is indeed possible that the brothers will be released soon, as it is expected that they will be questioned again in November. This information was confirmed by Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon.
Kim Kardashian sided with Lyle and Erik
Even celebrity Kim Kardashian got involved in the case of freeing the Menendezes. She visited the brothers in prison and later spoke well of them. Kardashian described them as “nice, intelligent and honest people”. The celebrity also quoted the words of one of the prison guards, who said he would have nothing against neighbors like Lyle and Erik. The post about the need to publish the brothers Kardashian on social media was released with the approval of many people. At the same time, there were also voices that the men should remain in prison for the rest of their lives.
The case of brothers who murdered their parents raises the same feelings as it did 35 years ago. There are many signs that major decisions are yet to be made. All we have to do is wait until November, when the next hearing will be held. It is possible that some interesting news will emerge in the meantime.

I feel offended by recent reports about two MPs from the Civic Coalition receiving taxpayers’ money from the Sejm to rent an apartment in Warsaw, even though they live 40 km from the main – town

Exaggeration, now they will be internet stars. If they were on death row, it would be over.
I find it hard to believe. I look at their eyes and there is something psychopathic in them.
After watching the fictional series, I couldn’t figure out where the truth was or if they were lying. After Later, after reading many materials about this issue, watching the recordings and the new Netflix series today, I believe that these feelings cannot be expressed, yes the trauma visible in their every move and word. In the fictional series, they get features, especially Lyla, that completely change his opinion (in my opinion). They have been handing out sentences for over 30 years, and the fact that they are involved in helping people who have been injured in sexual violence says a lot.
Hmm… It would be one thing if they killed out of passion, but here they did it with complete premeditation, I know their psyche is distorted, etc., the desire for revenge, but they still did it there in cold blood, they are guilty.
Netflix and other platforms are pushing the envelope by creating series about murderers. Maybe not completely conscious, but it happens. We begin to feel sorry for these murderers, we want to understand what made them do such things. Whether it’s a good thing, time will tell.
Final Thoughts (26)
All you have to do is distance yourself from bad, toxic parents. No need to kill them.
The father worried them, I saw it because I broke their toilets
Maybe they should start making movies about the victims? How were they tortured and treated like objects? There were already some who maybe got a few years, they walked free, but they killed in a cruel way and even enjoyed the suffering of their victims… let’s not turn murderers into heroes . Even if they had some trauma somewhere, etc., why on earth would they spend their hard earned money a month after their parents died? Did they really think he wasn’t picking on them and wasn’t suspicious? In addition, now everything can be considered trauma … of course, no child should be abused or beaten, but try … the 80s or 90s … Now we know that stress and violence are bad, but let’s face it … it used to be a little different … trauma at all … as if they lived in those times in Poland, when swings and walls were not the only entertainment for children, and they could only use belts and chewing gum, they would have a breakdown…
You can see the evil in their eyes, they are not good people, they should be condemned for what they did, they gave their lives!

The father was allegedly tortured, but they also killed the mother. This does not add up.
I do not believe the molestation story. The series shows how they handled this story and how they tried to get other people to give false evidence. They tried to convince them that they had seen violence in their home, but their friends agreed that they did not remember anything like that.
They did not try to separate themselves from their parents. they wanted money. the parents may have been bad, but the sons are not good people either.
It’s hard to judge now.

There. I’m waiting for Wade Wilson to be released. I love him
Hey, what should I do? It was my birthday, my sister lives next door and she didn’t visit me, despite invitations, either during the week or at the weekend . But he is already having another dinner with people from work. It’s terribly calculated, don’t you think?
Their facial expressions are in denial.
