It began in August 1989, when Jose Menendez, an RCA Records executive, and his wife Kitty Menendez, were shot and killed in their Beverly Hills mansion.

The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office will request the resentencing of Erik and Lyle Menendez on Thursday, a pair of brothers sentenced in 1996 to life in prison for killing their parents, heeding calls by their family to reconsider their case after new evidence emerged backing the brothers’ defense that they were physically and sexually abused by their father.

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón is expected to announce his decision Thursday afternoon on whether to recommend resentencing in the case of Erik and Lyle Menendez, who were convicted of murdering their parents more than three decades ago.
