Next on Truer Crime: The Menendez Brothers
In 1989, Beverly Hills police found Hollywood executive José Menendez and his wife Kitty brutally murdered in their home. Their sons, Erik and Lyle, were charged with pulling the trigger. What followed was one of the most sensational trials of the 1990s, complete with abuse allegations, media mockery, and a nation convinced the brothers were nothing more than greedy rich kids.
But decades later, new evidence and shifting cultural conversations are forcing a second look. Were the Menendez Brothers ruthless killers? Or survivors fighting for their lives?
