Erik and Lyle Menendez will have a new shot at freedom after 35 years behind bars for murdering their parents, a judge has ruled.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Michael Jesic reduced the brothers’ sentences from life without parole to 50 years to life.

They are now eligible for parole under California’s youthful offender law because they committed the crime under the age of 26.

They certainly enjoyed life after the murder from what I remember was it a year they spent traveling and spending money before detectives caught up with them?

Something like this.. It’s really strange.

First thing they did after they slaughtered their parents was go on a massive shopping spree buying everything that was not nailed down to the floor

They should be forced to disavow any monies earned or otherwise accumulated from any entertainment, documentary, books or remotely associated facsimile thereof as a part of any release. Sentence them to work in a Aldi Butcher Shop for three years.

If they told other people they could have told the cops.

So there’s that.

I mean come on, it’s not like they killed cats or dogs or anything. /s

They need to remain in prison! They still are unrepentant and continue to lie evidently. Their parents don’t get a reprieve from being dead!

We could always transfer them to El Salvador then they’d have visitors, Gofundme, and free Legal Representation.

Do they deserve freedom, Freepers? It was a brutal double homicide.

Hell no. IMO, they don’t deserve to even be alive after what they did.

It is interesting how differently being sexually abused by strangers, male teachers, female teachers priests, ministers, businessmen, politicians, or parents is viewed here. Not saying it did or didn’t happen in this case but the acceptable response here varies widely depending upon the perp.

Their mom said that having Erik and Lyle as her sons was a blast.

Right after they murdered their parents, a local talk show host on radio station KFI exhorted the jurors to “fry the Menendi (plural for Menendez).” And I still say, “fry the Menendi”!

I agree. The people calling for execution don’t know the whole story.

Works for me, but then, liberal judges would set them free with conditions.

They should be sown into a bag with a snake and thrown in the river.
