THEY SHOT THERE MOM IN THE FACE WITH A SHOTGUN.
13 TIMES TOTAL
THEY ARE NOT INNOCENT

[kleinster]

They killed their parents in cold blood. Some BS about abuse. They murdered their parents.

[nateman]

So the trick to life sentences is get a Netflix documentary made about you

[Mschasz]

If the system helps them they have a chance. "IF" ...

[bigdoba]

Mother and father murdered by two adults in their own living room. They lied lied and lied. Shame on you!!

[smoothtwh]

Originally, they should have been heard about their fathers sexual abuse of them.

Should only have been charged with manslaughter.

[gerrydave]

Coming from Gascon, nothing surprising about freeing felons. Nothing like overriding juries.

[amgratefu]

I believed the Menendez Brothers were SA when I watched the entire trail. The trial I should have watched was the parents sentenced not their children they abused. Are we there yet? Males failed by the system sworn to protect them and assist that they will receive justice. Believe the male children, teenagers and young men.

[KK-ymwu]

Stay in jail molestation is not a reason to change the original verdect

[jeffeldredge]

THIS IS A MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE. THEY SHOULD REMAIN IN PRISON.

THEY DESERVE THE PUNISHMENT THE WERE ADMINISTERED. NOT FOR YOUNOR ANYONE ELSE SHOULD CIRCUMVENT THE ORIGINAL SENTENCING.

DOUBLE JEOPARDY WOULD THEN BE COMMITTED AND THE STATE WOULD THEN HAVE TO RELEASE THEM FOR THIS MISTAKE.

NO WAY NO HOW YOU WOULD NOT DO YHIS FOR ANY OTHER CASES AND THAT THEY WERE BRUTALLY MURDERED THEIR PARENTS AT POINT BLANK RANGE??!!!

NO RELEASE NO RETRIAL NO REHABILITAYION FROM LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE NONE EVER THIS IS A BASTARDIZATION OF LAW.

GROWN MEN NOT CHILDREN STFU

[caskade]

No one cares about these two. Go fix your laws Gascon you incompetent.

[colinmccann]

So where are there parents !!! One of them shot their mother in the head. That sure sounds like Father abuse!!¡

[elaineen]

Gascon hopes this will get him reelected. NOT!

[ClaraRossi-vr]

This why Gaston should go to jail this insane and stupid
These boys killed their parents.They could have gotten help
Vote Gaston out
👿👹😡👹👿😡

[mjrtom]

Their was no abuse it was for the money ? So what's the the price of two lives ? These guys will get out and tell a big story write some books and make alot of money ! What a Deal ! Should have just let Manson out while you had the chance !

[elisabethschwartz]

Wow! I never thought I would see this day coming!
They will Be Free!

[KathrynRose-schultz-qsqw]

How many others have had sentence re done?😮😮

[shamaniworld]

Gascon Incompitent. How is he doing subject advocating services pro-bono from the D.A's office. I am assuming this is of his greatest concern for Angelinos!

[melvinreed]

"Look, these guys ARE NOT BLACK. Hence, they shouldn't be serving life sentences for brutally murdering their parents. I mean, really, come on."
