Summary

Lyle and Erik Menendez, who spent over three decades in prison for the 1989 murder of their parents in a Beverly Hills home, may soon be released after a judge reduced their sentences. During an emotional hearing, the men confessed to their brutal double killing, and Judge Michael Jesic suggested they might deserve a second chance given their long time behind bars.
