Prosecutors in Los Angeles are reviewing new evidence in the case of Erik and Lyle Menendez to determine whether they should be serving life sentences for killing their parents in their Beverly Hills mansion more than 35 years ago, the city’s district attorney said Thursday.
Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón said during a news conference that attorneys for Erik Menendez, 53, and his 56-year-old brother, Lyle Menendez, have asked a court to vacate their conviction.
Gascón said there is no question the brothers committed the murders, but that his office will be reviewing new evidence and will make a decision on whether it warrants a resentencing. A hearing was scheduled for Nov. 29.
“We have not decided on an outcome. We are reviewing information,” Gascón said.

I guess they don’t have enough other murders to prosecute.
So, Gascón says there is no doubt that the brothers killed their parents, but he’s reviewing whether or not they should be punished in the way the court deemed fit. Got it.
I’ll never understand why Libs have such a hard-*n for criminals. It never seems to stop. And the worse the criminal, the bigger the....y’know.
LET ‘EM OUT. DIPWADS NEED 2 MORE VOTES.
What might the mitigating circumstances possibly be?
They are orphans.
I think you might have something there, but on second thought it would never work.
Could it be something about the parents?
Their parents were Trump supporters.
“What might the mitigating circumstances possibly be?”t
They claimed their father raped them.
Don’t know why they would shotgun their mother. I don’t think they can accuse her of that.
Anything Gascon can do to put the rest of us at greater risk...
When you have a father raping his sons, you’re likely dealing with a cult.
Were the parents satanists?
Is the truth about satanism starting to be revealed?
The American Clown “Justice” System.
“Don’t know why they would shotgun their mother.”
If you go that far you don’t want to leave any witnesses around...and they nearly got away with it.
Gascon is communist scum.
This might be the final straw, the one that gets a recall effort ramped up that actually administers the death blow to this DA’s political career.
