Summary
Rumors are swirling about more victims of their father, José Menendez, including allegations involving members of the famed boy band Menudo. These new claims seem to back up what the brothers have been saying all along, sparking questions about whether justice was fully served or if they were victims in their own right.
Attorney Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to delve into the complexities of this case, discussing the evolution of societal views on abuse, the psychological impact of childhood trauma, and the Menendez brothers’ chance of redemption. If they do get out, can they finally find some semblance of peace, or will they just become pawns in a media frenzy, cashing in on their twisted legacy?
Would their story be different if it happened today?
