What happens in The Menendez Brothers trailer?

The video features snippets of audio interviews of Lyle and Erik Menendez, who are both currently serving time at the Donovan Correctional Facility after nearly three decades since killing their parents. The trailer teases more secrets to uncover about the Menendez Brothers’ case, while also highlighting the new generation’s reaction to it.

“In 1996, Lyle and Erik Menendez were convicted for the murders of their parents in what became one of the most famous criminal cases of the late 20th century. For the first time in 30 years, and in their own words, both brothers revisit the trial that shocked the nation. Through extensive audio interviews with Lyle and Erik, lawyers involved in the trial, journalists who covered it, jurors, family, and other informed observers, the documentary offers new insight and a fresh perspective on a case that people only think they know.”

The Menendez Brothers documentary hails from acclaimed Argentinian director Alejandro Hartmann (Carmel: Who Killed Maria Marta?). It is executive produced by Ross Girard, Mark McCune, Dani Sloane, Gina Scarlata, Cecilia Salguero, Will Mavronicolas, and JP Quicquaro, with Ross M. Dinerstein and Rebecca Evans producing.
