Erik Menendez (C) and his brother Lyle are seeking parole more than 35 years after they killed their parents at the family's luxury Beverly Hills home AFP Lyle and Erik Menendez will appear before California's parole board to seek freedom this week, more than 35 years after the shotgun murders of their parents in the family's luxury Beverly Hills home. The separate hearings -- Erik on Thursday, Lyle on Friday -- are the latest chapter in a long campaign waged by friends, family and celebrities like Kim Kardashian to get the brothers out of prison. They come after a Los Angeles judge this year reduced their original open-ended sentence to a term of 50 years, and as the men said, they accepted full responsibility for the grisly 1989 killings.
