    Keith Morrison and Andrea Canning sit down to talk about Keith’s episode, “Menendez Brothers: Chance at Freedom.” Thirty-five years ago, Jose and Kitty Menendez were gunned down in the den of their Beverly Hills home. Their sons, Lyle and Erik, were charged with their murders. A media frenzy surrounded the trial which was televised and captured the nation’s attention. Following each of their juries being unable to come to an agreement, the brothers were convicted in a second trial and sentenced to life in prison without parole. The case is back in the news and capturing the attention of a new audience on social media. And now, the outgoing Los Angeles County D.A. has recommended the brothers be resentenced, which – if a judge agrees – would immediately make them eligible for parole. Keith and Andrea discuss public opinion surrounding the case and details that could be considered in a possible resentencing. Plus, they answer viewer and listener questions about the episode.
