Menendez Brothers’ Resentencing Hearing Postponed


Lyle and Erik Menendez's latest bid to get a reduced sentenced has been postponed to May 9.

During Thursday’s proceedings, it emerged that neither Judge Michael Jesic nor the brothers’ attorneys had read the governor’s report that caused arguments in the courtroom. Gavin Newsom ordered the parole board to complete a risk assessment review of the Menendez Brothers as one of their steps toward a reduced sentence and possible freedom. Lyle and Erik Menendez have served 35 years for the 1989 murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty, at their Beverly Hills home in 1989.
