Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman has publicly opposed the resentencing of Lyle and Erik Menendez, who were convicted of murdering their parents in 1989. Hochman stated that the brothers need to acknowledge their responsibility for the killings before any potential resentencing can occur. His opposition marks a significant shift from previous DA George Gascon, who had supported the resentencing based on new evidence related to their abusive childhood. The brothers, who maintain that they acted in self-defense due to long-term abuse, face further obstacles in their quest for freedom under Hochman's leadership.
