Ep 217: The Menendez Murders: The October Press Conferences, Part 9

On October 3 2024 District Attorney George Gascón called an odd, impromptu press conference about the Menendez Brothers case. This was followed by more than 24 members of the Menendez/Andersen family calling a press conference on October 16 outside the courthouse in downtown LA. On the heels of that, on October 24, District Attorney George Gascón called a press conference and announced his recommendation to resentence Erik and Lyle Menendez to 50 years to life and that they should be released immediately.

The brothers have been in prison for 34 years and six months. In the run up to the election, there’s a lot at stake. Join Laura as she unravels the next steps and hear from the family at the press conference as to why both sides of the family are unified and supporting Erik and Lyle’s immediate release.
