Lyle Menendez denied parole by California board in Beverly Hills murder case
San Diego – Liele Menendez, one of the two brothers convicted in the 1989 hunting rifle massacres of their parents at Beverly Hills, was evacuated by a California Review Board on Friday before the board.
The decision came after his brother Erik’s conditional release on Thursday. The brothers will be appropriate to prevent the conditional evacuation board within three years.
The advice of the California Parole trial board points to an important development in the case that lasted for decades, and the brothers’ trial on television becomes one of the most famous of the 1990s. Now 57 -year -old Lyle spent more than 30 years behind the bars.
Gov. The Gavin Newsoma can still review the decision and potentially veto.

A conditional evacuation hearing officers evaluated the Panel brothers individually. Similar to his brother, Lyle Menendez met the board of directors through the video conference from the Richard J. Donovan Correction Facility in San Diego.
“The panel still found signs today,” Parole Commissioner Julie Garland said.
“We see that your regret is real,” he said. “In many ways, you look like a model prisoner. You have become a model prisoner in many ways showing the potential of change. But despite all these external positives … You still struggle with anti-social personality traits such as bedtime, minimization and rules breaking under this positive surface.”
“There is never hope … This is not denial… This is not the end,” Garland added. “This is a way to apply some time to show, who you are, who you want to be.”
The board members mentioned Lyle’s history of breaking the rules behind bars and the use of mobile phones that were repeated in prison.
“You look like different things at different times,” Patrick Reardon, Deputy Commissioner for Parole. He said.
Lyle’s lawyer Heidi Rummel said during the hearing, “He spent the first 21 years of life in his house prison and spent the rest of his life in prison … I hope we have a deeper understanding of childhood sexual abuse today.”
Los Angeles Regional Lawyer Deputy Lawyer Ethan Milus said Lyle did not show that there is no “growth”.
He continued: “When a violation, he is lying and trying to avoid responsibility.” Milius said.
Lyle said that “all this pain is responsible”. “My parents didn’t have to die that day.”
Lyle, who was crying during the closing words, spoke in a tense voice on August 20 when he killed himself and his brother’s parents.
“The anniversary of an overwhelming day for many people in my family,” he said. “I am thinking of all the phone calls with shattered news, loss and grief that day.”
“I will never be able to compensate for the damage and sorrow I have caused by everyone in my family.” “I am very sorry for everyone and I will be sad forever.”
The brothers family, Lyle’nin after hearing, “This is not the end of the road” and both of them will prevent the board of directors and Habeas petitions were reviewed, he said.
“Of course, even though we are disappointed with today’s decision, it does not break the courage. The parole process is extremely meticulous, but we are proud of how Erik and Lyle emerge – with honesty, accountability and integrity.”
There are 21 full -time commission members under the California Parto Board (BPH), California Correction and Rehabilitation Department (CDCR). Each commission member is appointed by the Governor of California and approved by the State Senate. The commissioners serve the three-year periods and meet with 2-3 commission members each of the brothers.
California Parole Hearing Board will be imprisoned, as he does not recommend Lyle Menendez for conditional release.
Although Newsom will not be able to reverse the decision of the independent committee, it can still confirm, reversed or may take any action. It has 30 days to decide according to California’s laws.
If the governor chooses not to act, the decision of the conditional evacuation board will stop.

During the hearing of the Conditional Evacuation Board on Thursday, Erik Menendez’s proposal for a conditional evacuation was rejected.
Commissioner Robert Barton emphasized the weight of Erik’s actions and subsequent prison behaviors.
“I believe in the penance or I would not do this job … But based on legal standards, we see that you continue to pose an irrational risk for public security.”
Although the forgiveness of the family is “surprising”, he said that the forgiveness and conditional evacuation compliance are separate issues: “Two things may be true. They can love and forgive you and you cannot be found suitable for conditional evacuation.”
Barton, not only the nature of the murders of the murders, but also during the penalty of Erik’s abuse expressed concerns. Mobile phone, drugs and alcohol, including the use of escape, as well as a prison gang tax plan pointed out the role.
The decision came to the heels of a bomb resurrection in the Supreme Court of Los Angeles in May, and made judge Michael Jesic’s passole sentences from 50 to 50 and made it suitable for conditional release.
At a press conference after the decision on Wednesday, May 14, Newsom announced the process of thinking about the conformity of the Menendez brothers to be released.
Before the completion of any decision, the governor announced that a team of judicial psychologists made individualized risk assessments on each brother.
Not only by the Los Angeles District Regional Lawyer Nathan Hochman and the victim’s family, but also by the judge, both in another speech, some of them were “” discussed behind the closed doors, “we thought this would be cautious.
Comprehensive risk assessments of the brothers (MKK) has been a bonding point for Los Angeles Regional Lawyer Nathan Hochman.
The brothers were marked as “moderate risk”, an increase in previous “low -risk” assessments. In each report, moderate risk increase came after Erik and Lyle’s prison rules, especially mobile phones for illegal violations.
Hochman, first “the process of deceiving actions”, Lyle Menendez, who spoke about the illegal phone, shared the findings.
He added that Lyle had “despise the rule” and showed his report “the right and willingness to meet his own needs”.

With the use of an illegal mobile phone, plums were marked to have drugs and processes and helped other prisoners with tax fraud. Hochman, who ran on a guilty platform, was vocal about the lack of rehabilitation of the brothers.
In August 1989, Beverly Hills Socialites José and Kitty Menendez were shot and killed.
Hochman previously called the murders “Mafia -like Hitler” and determined the violent nature of repeated tours fired to parents.
At that time, 18 and 21 -year -old children were sentenced in 1996.

The claim of the defense was that the brothers’ fathers were directed to violence with physical and sexual abuse for years.
Despite the first hearing that resulted in a jury member who led to his final conviction in 1996, the people were divided by whether the brothers act in greed or self -defense.
