Menendez Brothers Await Judge's Decision on Potential Release
A judge is set to decide whether new evidence of sexual abuse warrants a re-examination of the Menendez brothers' convictions for the 1989 murders of their parents. The brothers, who have been serving life sentences without parole, have filed a habeas corpus petition citing new evidence, including a letter from Erik Menendez and allegations from former Menudo member Roy Rossello. Prosecutors have recommended resentencing, which could make them eligible for parole. The decision on the abuse evidence will be addressed before a resentencing hearing in December.
