Menendez brothers may face mixed public reaction if released from prison, says Perez Hilton

The Menendez brothers may soon have a chance at freedom after the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office recommended reduced sentences. They have been serving life sentences since their 1996 convictions for killing their parents in 1989. Public interest in their case has grown due to recent documentaries and new evidence. While they could potentially profit from their story, experts warn they may also face intense scrutiny and backlash from the public. If a judge approves the recommendation, the brothers would still need parole board and governor approval to be released. Their situation has drawn comparisons to other high-profile cases, with some viewing them as victims of abuse.
