The trials of Lyle and Erik Menendez and their conviction for killing their parents came at a time when televised trials captured national audiences in the 1990s.

Attorneys for Lyle and Erik Menendez say California Gov. Gavin Newsom has ordered the state parole board to investigate whether the brothers would pose a risk to the public if they are released after nearly three decades in prison for the 1989 killing of their parents.

The Los Angeles district attorney says he not yet decided whether to recommend resentencing Lyle and Erik Menendez.
