When a wealthy music producer and his wife, Jose and Kitty Menendez, are gunned down in their Beverly Hills home in 1989, the gruesome details of the crime and lack of credible suspects quickly became a media sensation – the more so when the couple’s two sons, Lyle and Erik Menendez, are apprehended a few months later and charged, then convicted of first-degree murder.

Were Lyle and Erik spoiled, greedy sociopaths or sexually abused victims afraid their parents were going to kill them? The trial supported either interpretation, depending on who you believed, prosecution or defense.  Now more than four decades later, a fascinating 9-part Netflix docuseries released Sept. 19 created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan explores possible scenarios and probes possible motivations.  In doing so, it walks a line between alternate interpretations of the crime, rekindling interest in the case.
