Netflix presented a first taste chilling:
Who are Lyle and Erik Menendez?
Joseph Lyle and Erik Galen Menendez are two American brothers, known for killing their parents in August 1989 in Beverly Hills with shotguns. After a highly publicized trial, they were sentenced to life sentence.
There is a very large gray area regarding the two brothers’ motivations. In fact, if they claimed to have been sexually abused by their father during their childhood, it is possible that this double homicide was also motivated by parental luck equal to 14 million dollars. Amount that the two brothers spent in a hurry, before being arrested after the police attended the sessions with their psychologist.
Before Netflix, this case was already brought to the screen in the first season of the series Law and order True crime in 2017. The two brothers were camped out by actors Gus Halper and Miles Gaston Villanueva.
