crimes of the century: the Menendez brothers

crimes of the century: the Menendez brothers by ric gustafson


In 1989, Jose and Kitty Menendez were relaxing in their Beverly Hills mansion one night when the unthinkable happened. Their sons, Lyle and Erik who were just 21 and 18 murdered them in cold blood. The trial caused a national, sensation in 1993 when it was shown all the time on Court TV. At first, the brothers appeared to have an alibi but in 1990 Erik broke down and confessed.
The first trial ended in a mistrial but both were convicted after a second trial.
Both were sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Both brothers got married behind bars.
