Erik and Lyle Menendez are now eligible for parole after judge resentences them

A California judge has resentenced Erik and Lyle Menendez, making them eligible for parole after serving over 30 years for the 1989 shotgun killings of their parents.

The brothers, previously sentenced to life without parole, were resentenced to 50 years to life following testimony about their rehabilitation.

The parole board will now decide their fate, with a clemency recommendation due to Governor Gavin Newsom by June 13, NBC News has reported.

While supporters cite their remorse and personal growth, prosecutors argue they haven’t fully acknowledged their past lies and actions.
