On the surface, Lyle and Erik Menendez seemed like privileged kids living the American dream in Beverly Hills. But behind the mansion doors, something far more sinister was unfolding. On a quiet night in August 1989, the Menendez brothers gunned down their parents in a brutal execution-style killing that shocked the nation. 

But was it cold-blooded murder? Or the desperate act of two sons trapped in a nightmare?

On this episode of The True Crime Couch, I unravel the chilling timeline, the hidden family trauma, and the courtroom drama that turned into a media circus. Sit with me, because the truth isn't as clear-cut as you might think!
