DA asks for delay hours before Menendez brothers return to court for resentencing hearing
Briefly

Ahead of a pivotal resentencing hearing for Erik and Lyle Menendez, the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office has requested a delay. They seek a completed risk assessment by the California Board of Parole Hearings, ordered by Governor Gavin Newsom, to be reviewed before any court decisions are made. The brothers, sentenced to life without parole for their parents' 1989 murders, have been incarcerated for over three decades and are pursuing freedom. Testimonies from multiple family members and a prison expert are anticipated at the hearing if it proceeds.
On April 15, 2025, the People were made aware that the Parole Board has completed its Comprehensive Risk Assessment Reports for Lyle and Erik Menendez.
