The Menendez Brothers Could Soon Be Free, Are They Ready For It?

While the internet has been going through the Erik & Lyle Menendez case with a fine tooth comb, so too has the Los Angeles County top Prosecutor George Gascón. He's since recommended the Mendendez brothers, who are currently serving life in prison without parole, be resentenced. But what would life on the outside look like for Erik & Lyle? Now in their 50s, they've been locked up since early adulthood and the outside world has changed drastically. They wouldn't be the first high profile people released from prison, but what could they learn from others who've walked free before them?  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia Check out The Quicky Instagram here Liked this episode?

Mamamia this episode is so disappointing... fear mongering. You should look into how hard it actually is under the law to get a warrant to track or listen to a person. Police can not just track their ex's. This was a horrible one sided podcast episode that doesn't focus on the need for these powers to actually protect the community. So disappointing.
