Menendez brothers are one step close to freedom after decades behind bars | What's next

A hearing on the matter could be held in 30 to 45 days, when a LA Superior Court judge will ultimately decide whether the brothers will be resentenced.

Whoever is in charge of them being released, I hope they do the right thing and release them. Let them be with their families. They served their time.

[wellthisisinteresting]

Only just decision is to release them immediately!! They have spent 30+ years paying for their crime.

They’ve been doing amazing work in prison and they have lots of family support. They will be okay in the world.

This is a real opportunity for the judicial system to evolve. The way we treat victims of child s/a is appalling.

How can Kitty's brother ignore all the evidence of sexual violence/abuse that his sister and brother-in-law inflicted on their two young sons?

hope to see them out of prison the soonest

[Universesallyinmense]

Free the Menéndez brothers.
Justice needs to be served!!!

If my dad did that to me and my brother, I would of done the same thing. This story is so sad

[anapriya]

In my humble opinion, it would be just and fair to grant them the freedom they have never had the opportunity to experience. The time has come for them to be liberated and allowed to live their lives with dignity .

Kitties 90 year old brother most likely knew his brother in law was raping them and knew that their mother was at the very least complacent in the situation. He doesn’t want them out because he is afraid his part, whatever it was, will be found out. They would have had a second mistrial if I would have been on that jury.

Lyle and Erik were crime victims when they killed their attackers.

*_Every case where people commit herendious crimes and are released, they always end up back in prison!!!_*

[emeraldkind]

It wasn’t the brothers that committed a heinous crime. It was their parents. They did what they did because they knew the police wouldn’t have helped. It was an act of self defense or the defense of others. Now I hope the prison system didn’t ruin them and creat criminals out of them. I hope they get out and make a safer America for children. I’m positive there are several organizations that would love to have their help catching people just like their parents.

The brother of kitty knows something. He seems so afraid that his dark secrets would never known once the brothers menendes come out..i bet he knew that his brother in law was SAing brothers but kept quiet.

[garrettmooney]

I love the second chance the brothers are getting, but in all honesty if the abuse allegations are true they shouldn’t have spent one day in prison.

[candykizzz]

If people were so quick to support Gypsy Rose coming out … I don’t see why they are still in jail . Don’t just get their hopes up 🥺 SET THEM FREE!!!

[rhbarbs]

I always thought the mendeze brothers were using the abuse as a defense.But after hearing kitty and jose on channeling erik.They admitted tgey bith abused the boys.Jose abused others as well

[macelJade]

They should release them, they suffered much from their Parents and from the Prison. They deserved to have a freedom!!!

[MetalJoe]

its amazing how 35 years later and they are back in the spot light

[Thelongmanable]

*_Let's take bets on how fast they end back in prison._*

[pattyherrera]

My heart is happy for this marvelous notice. Thanks, the Lord

[vangielacap]

Those family and relatives speak volumes
