Do the Menendez Brothers Still Have Money? Inheritance Details Revealed


Here’s more about whether Lyle and Erik still have any money from their family’s estate since being convicted in 1996 for killing their parents, José and Kitty Menendez.

Although Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón clarified that the brothers were “clearly the murderers” of their parents, José and Kitty Menendez, prosecutors are assessing whether the new evidence could have led the jury to reach a “different conclusion,” according to the DA. About half of that amount went toward the brothers’ legal fees, including those of attorney Leslie Abramson, who argued that José and Kitty had subjected their sons to years of emotional and sexual abuse. The increasingly popular 10-episode season streaming on Netflix aims to explore whether the brothers were cold-blooded killers seeking to inherit their family’s fortune, as the prosecution argued, or victims of a lifetime of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse at the hands of their parents, as the defense claimed and Lyle and Erik maintain to this day.
