Los Angeles County D.A. George Gascón is seeking to resentence Erik and Lyle Menendez for their parents' murders, potentially allowing for immediate parole eligibility.
Gascón stated, 'I believe that under the law resentencing is appropriate... we’re going to recommend to the court that the life without parole be removed.'
The Menendez brothers were sentenced to life without parole after a high-profile trial for the 1989 shotgun murders of their parents, sparking significant media coverage.
While the prosecution claimed greed motivated the killings, defense attorneys alleged the brothers had been victims of long-term, violent sexual abuse.
