LA DA won’t resentence Menendez brothers until they give up ‘lie’ about parents’ murder

Published

The Menendez brothers are 30 years into their life sentences without the possibility of parole over their respective first-degree murder charges. Recently the brothers, now 57 and 56, began filing motions to pursue new sentences for themselves, which is opposed by Hochman because the pair do not seem entirely rehabilitated.
