The Menendez brothers could be resentenced as a judge in the parricide case to consider new evidence

Authorities say the Menendez brothers could face re-sentencing given new evidence.

Erik and Lyle Menendez were sentenced to life in prison without parole for the shotgun slayings of their parents in their Beverly Hills home in 1989.

The pair shot father José five times before reloading and finishing off his mother Kitty, who lay in agony on the ground.

Just 18 and 20 years old at the time, her case has now become the topic of conversation 35 years later after the release of the Netflix series Monsters: The Story of Lyle and Erik Menendez.

The series takes a look at events from different perspectives that the public may have never seen before, causing heated controversy.

Although both have been in prison for over 30 years, the Menendez brothers have criticized the series as inaccurate and accused the series' creator, Ryan Murphy, of making it out of bad faith.

Still, viewers appear to be convinced that the brothers may not deserve the sentence given to them, as hundreds of thousands have signed a petition calling for their release from prison.

The show's actors, as well as Kim Kardashian, even went so far as to visit the brothers in prison, building relationships with them and protesting their innocence.

And it looks like her wish could come true after news of the 30-plus-year-old's case broke earlier this week.

On Thursday (October 3), the Los Angeles district attorney announced that his office would review new evidence of alleged harassment in the Menendez brothers' case, which could lead to a resentencing.

District Attorney George Gascon said, “We are not prepared to say at this point that we believe or disbelieve this information.” But we are here to tell you that we have a moral and ethical obligation to investigate is presented to us and to make a decision.”

This follows the petition the brothers signed last year following the Peacock docuseries Menendez + Menudo: Betrayed Boys included allegations that her father had sexually abused a former underage member of her band.

Roy Rossello said he was only 13 years old when José, who worked as a music manager, drugged and raped him.

One of the journalists behind the series, Nery Ynclan, told the Los Angeles Times on Thursday: “This new evidence is undeniable. After 35 years, it is overdue to show these victims of incest the mercy they deserve.”

Erik and Lyle believe this new evidence supports their claim that their parents were sexually abused from a young age.

Testifying about it was forbidden during their joint trial, and although they were previously able to mention it in their separate trials, these ended in a jury verdict.

The couple claimed their actions were an act of self-defense as they thought their parents would kill them if they reported any abuse to authorities.
