In 1989, brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez killed their parents by shooting them multiple times at close range at their mansion in Beverly Hills. They were found guilty of first-degree murder and conspiracy to murder in 1996, and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lyle and Erik Menendez were 21 and 18 when they killed their parents. Now, at 57 and 54, the brothers are eligible for parole after a Los Angeles judge Tuesday reduced their sentences from life in prison without parole to 50 years to life.

A judge resentenced Erik and Lyle Menendez to a term of 50 years to life in prison for the 1989 murders of their parents, ruling Tuesday the brothers will be eligible for parole. The brothers have been serving life without parole for the killings.

Lyle and Erik Menendez could be eligible to walk free after more than 30 years in prison for the vicious 1989 shotgun slayings of their parents — and they might even be released as early as the coming weeks.

Jimmy Kimmel took a playful jab at Peyton and Eli Manning by comparing them to convicted murderers Erik and Lyle Menéndez. During the Disney Upfronts on Tuesday, May 13, Kimmel, 57, delivered a monologue that roasted the Manning brothers after they performed a musical number at the event.

On the first day of Erik and Lyle Menendez 's resentencing hearing Tuesday, their cousins, a former judge and a former fellow inmate took to the witness stand to testify that the brothers were not only rehabilitated but helped others.
