Transcript

00:00Everyone asks why we kill our parents.

00:08Maybe now people can understand the truth.

00:15My name is Eric Menendez.

00:16My name is Lyle Menendez, calling you from Donovan Correctional Facility.

00:23Lyle was the only person that had ever protected me.

00:28The truth behind the death knife is very well known, but so much hasn't been told.

00:33If anyone had written this for a script in Hollywood, the Hollywood people would have

00:36gone no way.

00:39The Menendez case is one of the most infamous criminal trials in America.

00:43The brothers accused of the murder of their wealthy parents in Beverly Hills.

00:47It was like an incredible soap opera.

00:51Jose was a successful businessman.

00:53Kitty was the caring mother.

00:56Two boys, emblematic of wealth and privilege.

01:01Why would you kill your parents?

01:04As the prosecutor, I knew it was plain old greed.

01:07There was a media spectacle from the beginning, so we were not the ones who told the story

01:13of our life.

01:14We looked like the perfect family, but behind the walls, something very wrong was happening.

01:22What did he do to you?

01:23I'm sorry.

01:25I'm sorry.

01:29Now, there's a TikTok movement to free the Menendez.

01:33There's a new generation that's for the brothers.

01:36People are looking at the case with fresh eyes.

01:39Two kids don't commit this crime for money, and there's people who believe I shouldn't

01:44spend the rest of my life in prison.

01:46That judge was determined he was going to get a conviction.

01:49These kids went through some horrible things.

01:52What I'm telling you now is all fake, and if you don't know it's fake, that pisses me

01:56off.

01:57There is no evidence saying they're not guilty.

02:03We would much rather lose the murder trial than talk about the six secrets of the family.
