187. A Nick in Crime | Menendez Three: The First Trial, Act One
Description
This week, we continue Dominick Dunne’s reporting into the Menendez case, with his coverage from the first trial of Lyle and Erik Menendez, from the summer of 1993. Dunne casts a dramatic lens on the players involved, and exactly how much the story has shifted from the August 1989 double murder of their parents, Kitty and Jose Menendez.
In this episode, we catch up on the main characters in this courtroom drama, including the brothers, the judge, Leslie Abramson, and the cast of lawyers, both prosecuting and defending. Dunne does not miss a trick in this investigation and reveals so many of his own feelings as this case has progressed through the judicial system.
