Menendez Politics: Resentencing Hearing Postponed Again As Gov. Newsom-Ordered Risk Assessment Of Siblings Begins – Update
Politics seem to be playing a rather open role in the potential release of the Menendez brothers as the LA DA & Gov. Newsom take separate paths on the matter
“The question for the board is a rather simple one, do Eric and Lyle Menendez, do they pose a current, what we call unreasonable risk to public safety?” the governor said earlier Wednesday of the now quinquagenarian siblings who were sentenced in 1996 to life without parole for the 1989 shotgun murders of their parents at their Beverly Hills home. “Along with scores of Jose and Kitty Menendez’s family members who have fought for years to see Erik and Lyle have a chance to finally come home, we are grateful for the Governor’s decision,” attorneys Mark Geragos and Cliff Gardner said Wednesday. After several delays due to the DA race and new regime, the resentencing hearing for the Menendenz brothers, who have been popping up on a number of podcasts of late, is set for March 20-21 in front of LA Superior Court Judge Michael Jesic.
