Two Faces of Torment in Menendez Killings
The trial portrayed Erik and Lyle Menendez as divergent figures. Erik, 18, described years of sexual abuse by father Jose starting at age six, including violent acts, while Lyle, 26, spoke of earlier abuse and later mental programming to mold him in his father’s image. The brothers killed their parents Jose and Kitty on August 20, 1989, amid a debate over motive between a plea of self defense against abuse and a plan to escape privileged life.
