Menendez brothers case will ‘reach the right decision,’ LA district attorney says

Los Angeles district attorney Nathan Hochman joins ‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ to discuss the latest news from the Menendez brothers’ case.

Los Angeles’ newly-elected District Attorney Nathan Hochman said on Friday that he has asked the court to reject the Menendez brothers’ request for a new trial. 

This comes months after former District Attorney George Gascon cited new evidence in the form of a letter suggesting the brothers may have been abused by their father as a reason for a new trial.

Hochman cited issues with the evidence, claiming it didn’t meet the standard for a new trial. 

Lyle and Erik Menendez were found guilty in the 1989 killing of their parents and sentenced to life in prison without parole.
