Episode 391 - The Menendez Brothers Part 1: Silver Spoon Killers
In this long-awaited episode, we dive into one of the most infamous true-crime cases in American history: the story of Lyle and Erik Menendez. The brutal 1989 slayings of their wealthy parents, José and Kitty Menendez, divided a nation: but where do we stand?
In Part 1, we take you through the chilling night of the crime, the early investigations, and the lavish spending spree that raised eyebrows everywhere. We unravel the media frenzy, the shocking confessions, and the family secrets that would go on to define this sensational story… Were the brothers cold-blooded killers driven by greed? Or victims of unimaginable abuse who saw no other way out?
Ahead of their resentencing hearing later this year, this is your first and final stop for everything you need to know about the Menendez Brothers case.
