At a second trial, the abuse claims were largely withheld. The brothers were found guilty and sentenced to life in prison without parole in 1996.Lyle Menendez was 21 and Erik Menendez was 18 at the time of the murders.New evidence now being considered includes a 1988 letter from Erik Menendez to his cousin, which reportedly appears to reference his father's abuse.
