The Menendez brothers’ murder trial captivated the nation in the 1990s, but a new Netflix series has reignited interest in their case—and their claims of abuse. Erik and Lyle Menendez have maintained that they killed their parents out of fear after years of sexual abuse by their father, Jose Menendez. Now, new evidence, including a letter from Erik detailing the alleged abuse and an accusation from a former Menudo member, has prompted the Los Angeles District Attorney to reexamine the case.
The series’ creator, Ryan Murphy, believes the brothers could be released from prison by Christmas. He has become an unexpected advocate for Erik and Lyle, whose story he initially told to highlight the sexual abuse angle. Not everyone agrees with Murphy’s assessment or his series, which some critics and even Erik himself have criticized for factual inaccuracies. The brothers’ case has sparked a larger conversation about sexual abuse, justice, and the role of media in shaping public opinion.
