Hard to believe that Freepers are falling for this bullshit. Seriously, they are cold blooded murderers and deserved the death penalty.
Let justice be served.
Are they dead yet? Until then, justice is NOT served!
ROFLMBO!!!
So... your position is... they couldn't leave because of their devotion to their captors... but they could murder them while they watched TV...
Don't start thinking like a Liberal.
They may have been abused by their father, but they also blew their mother away with a shotgun.
How do they explain that?
“They may have been abused by their father, but they also blew their mother away with a shotgun. How do they explain that?”
It would have been nice to discuss that during the trials in 1996 (first trial took place in 93/94 but ended in jury deadlock). But, alas, the evidence of abuse was not allowed to be used in their defense.
I’m all for justice being served and for the guilty to be punished. However, the Menendez trial wasn’t fair to the accused since evidence was withheld. What would have the outcome been? We will never know. All we do know is that they have served 28 years of their sentence with good behavior and that we now know the aforementioned evidence of abuse should have been included in their trials.. justice isn’t being served by keeping them locked up.
The governor is the head of the Executive branch. The Judicial branch should be handling this!
They murdered their parents. They are still alive. They have not paid their debt to society.
I think the opposite.
“look at me, in 2024 (4 years ago) I didn’t let the Menendex brothers just walk free from a heinous murder. I waited until the new, tough DA came into office”
Really?
Wow.
It’s always a billion years on true crime shows :)
I guess the ones with short sentences would get viewers mad :)
John Wayne Gacy served 18 months of a 10 year sentence for his first two instances of molesting boys...so it does seem justice is not evenly distributed!
The fact they went on a massive spending spree immediately after killing their parents always weighed heavily in my opinion.
The only way they can “pay their debt to society” is to die in prison.
The people who have no brain are the people advocating for their release.
For over twenty years I have heard the refrain of "oh, they are so young! Surely there is some excuse..."
Usually, no.
There are just nasty twisted people in the world and some of them happen to be young and good looking.
OK, thanks.
Newsom wants these orphans to get a fair shake in a new sentence.
