Description
Fasten your seatbelts because Menendez Mania continues! After months of living large, the brothers were finally arrested in 1990 and charged with the murder of their parents. To quote the tagline for the TV movie: "Was it fear that made them kill or was it simply greed?" The trial began in 1993 and became a media sensation when it was broadcast live on cable in the heyday of trash talk shows and tabloid television. Erik and Lyle Menendez became household names -- and national punchlines. Their public image of being spoiled rich brats would take a turn, however, when they revealed the dark secrets of their dad, Jose Menendez. They were the first huge True Crime story before True Crime was even a thing. In this episode, we go over both trials (yes, there were two), what really happened on the night of the murders and all the recent developments in the case, including new evidence that could set them FREE!
