I am watching monsters the Lyle and Erik menendez story...

It is so sad what happened to those boys, there parents failed them, the jury failed them , the judge failed them and the society failed them, the parents deserved what happened to them, but these boys didn't deserve to rot in prison for life! I used to think my parents were evil until I watched the menendez case,,,this happened before I was even born I don't know why I care so much there are worse things that happened in my time, but it really affected me made me so emotional because I really didn't imagine a parent a father would do such things to their own flesh and blood,,to his own children, some people are really sick in the head and should never be allowed to procreate. The DA were saying at the time of the trial that it's an abuse excuse and their lying in the last minutes to avoid the gas chamber, but I think they were really just scared of their parents to say anything before. I honestly cannot understand why a mother could see that and not say anything??? Is a man more important than your own child? nothing is worse than mother betrayal. I would have defended my child with my own life...Sometimes people have no choice but to take justice in their own hands when they get failed by the society and law.

Fascinating...that's what you took from the story? I'm surprised, it seemed pretty clear Ryan Murphy believed they were guilty based on how he directed that series and what he chose to present.

The Menendez brothers are pure sociopaths, they murdered their parents in cold blood, and made up a story about a mafia hit. When that didn't work, they made up an abuse story as a defensive strategy to try and get them off.

They are absolutely where they belong. I hope they never get out.

@SumKindaMunster Indeed.
IF they were so afraid for themselves why didn't they just run off. They were grown young men. Yet, they planned the murders out in their heads, chose it, took the time to drive out to choose their weapons and then drove back to the house by choice, where they supposedly were abused. Their mother, was not completely deceased and they brutally shot her twice.

Afterwards they were out spending hundreds of thousands of dollars from their parents' fortune on luxury items, businesses, travel, etc., etc..

They were adults tho and need to be held accountable for their actions, it would be one thing if they admitted what they did in the initial investigation and gave their reasons why but instead they lied

People have choices, especially adults

I’m actually in favor of justifiable homicides aka killing rapist, especially abusers of children.. but what they did was dishonest not to mention they had prior incidents of home invasion robberies

Maybe they failed themselves.
Unfortunately the parents aren't here to tell their side of it.
