The family of Erik and Lyle Menendez are rejecting claims by D.A. Nathan Hochman that the brothers hadn't taken responsibility for the killing of their parents.
The Menendez brothers' family accuses Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman of "personal bias" in his opposition to their release after 35 years in prison for the 1989 killings of their parents. Hochman believes the brothers haven't taken sufficient responsibility for their crimes. The family and supporters held a rally, claiming the brothers have acknowledged their mistakes and deserve parole. A resentencing hearing that could have made them immediately eligible for parole was held, but the DA's opposition diminishes their chances. The brothers are also scheduled to appear before a parole board for an assessment.
