Incorrect. If you tell someone you committed murder for example, and they testify to what you said it's not hearsay.

If the parents abused them; they got what they deserved. My concern is that we have a lot of unstable kids today. A release might perpetuate open season on parents, even those who haven’t abused their kids. But kids are nuts and weak today.

The parents were not charged with any crime. They have no ability to confront or challenge their accuser. All because their bodies were blown to bits by their children. There is scant evidence to even support these outrageous claims.

The brothers should have long since been dead.

He added, “I believe that they have paid their debt to society.” Joseph “Lyle” Menendez and Erik Menendez fatally shot their parents, entertainment company executive Jose Menendez and Kitty Menendez, with shotguns in their Beverly Hills home in 1989.


So in California, killing someone and the debt to society means a life is worth 30 years I guess

I was 6 in 1989, so I remember this on the news but didn't know or understand what was going on.

If all of this stuff about the abuse is true, I'll be honest, I have a real hard time understanding why anyone would empathize with pedos and abusers.

I mean, I definitely believe the abuse happened in some form, but that doesn't (by itself) create a valid defense to premeditated murder. They shouldn't have gotten life w/o parole, but I don't see how this new evidence actually changes anything



Said this in the last thread a few weeks ago. I'm completely fine with the decision. 30 years is enough imo

There was evidence of the SA but it wasn’t allowed at the second trial because the judge didn’t want another hung jury.

Back then there was a different view on SA of boys. People didn’t really think that happened when we now know it’s very prevalent.

And there is additional evidence as one of the band members that the dad managed recently came forward saying the dad abused him too.

Many family members are in support of them being released including the mom’s sister so I think that speaks volumes.

I don’t think letting them out will set a good precedence. Unless there was a parole provision. But if they received, life, I assume not. I haven’t followed this.

Sucks that they were abused, but does that make blasting your parents domes off with a shotgun less than 1st degree murder?


Gary Plauche is celebrated on this site for that. Rightfully so, too.
