Description
On August 20, 1989, José and Kitty Menendez were shot to death in their Beverly Hills living room. Their sons called 911 in tears. Six months later, one of them confessed to his therapist.
The evidence was damning. The confession was on tape. And the first jury still couldn't agree on a verdict.
This is the full story of the Menendez Brothers — the trial that split America in half, and the secret that changed everything.
