In April, Hochman moved to withdraw Gascón’s recommendation, arguing that he did not believe the brothers had taken full responsibility for their crimes. This move was then rejected by Judge Jesic, paving the way for this week’s hearings to take place.

A Los Angeles judge resentenced Lyle and Erik Menendez to life with the possibility of parole, which could lead to their freedom after decades in prison.

The two-day proceeding in L.A. ended on its first day with the judge resentencing the brothers who have spent more than three decades behind bars for their parents' 1989 murders.

Nearly three decades after Erik and Lyle Menendez were sentenced to life in prison for the murders of their parents, a California judge has reopened a door many believed would remain closed.

Erik and Lyle Menendez will have a shot at freedom for the first time in decades after being convicted of their parents’ murder 30 years ago.

The brothers' battle to regain their freedom was back in court Friday, but instead of hearing why D.A. Hochman's bias against them means he needs to go, their lawyer killed the motion for withdrawal.
