Erik Menendez criticized the Netflix series for perpetuating lies and damaging portrayals of him and Lyle, suggesting they've not moved beyond these misrepresentations.
The prosecution argued that the Menendez brothers killed their parents for financial gain, countering their defense of claiming self-defense due to alleged abuse.
The first trial was declared a mistrial as the jury was deadlocked over whether to convict the brothers of murder or manslaughter, demonstrating the complexities in the case.
Following their 1996 sentencing for the murders, Lyle and Erik became subjects of several productions, reflecting America’s ongoing fascination with true crime narratives.
