Murder & The Menendez Brothers | Court TV Podcast

Two brothers are on trial for the August 1989 shotgun murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in the family’s Beverly Hills mansion. The brothers were arrested in March 1990 after Erik confessed during a session with his psychologist. During the highly publicized trial, the prosecution claimed the motive was greed, as the brothers stood to inherit $14 million. The defense claimed that it was an act of self–defense in a desperate attempt to escape years of childhood family violence and sexual abuse.

    Murder & The Menendez Brothers: Episode 6 - The Black Box

    In December of 1993, after months of testimony from over one hundred witnesses, two juries – one for Lyle Menendez and one for his brother Eric – began deliberations. And like every aspect of the Menendez brothers story the results were shocking and dramatic. Two hung juries. Two mistrials. And a nation left feeling justice had not been served…yet. It would take three more years before a second trial determined the brother’s fate, but was justice served and would the results be the same if the brother’s face a jury of their peers today?

    Murder & The Menendez Brothers: Episode 5 - The Confession

    Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of sexual abuse and brief offensive language. Listener discretion is advised. Long before Lyle and Eric Menendez admitted to the world they had killed their parents, they admitted it to someone else – their psychologist Jerome Oziel, who had recorded the brother’s confessions during a therapy session. After a years-long legal battle that went all the way to the California Supreme Court, parts of the confessional tapes were deemed admissible and played for the jurors. The tapes opened the door for another drama to play out in the courtroom – that between Oziel and his former patient-turned-mistress Judalon Smyth, who returns to the Menendez saga as a witness for the defense.

    Murder & The Menendez Brothers: Episode 4 - Rhyme or Reason

    Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised. When defense lawyers for Erik and Lyle Menendez announced just weeks before their trial began that they did indeed murder their parents, it shocked the nation. But that was just the first of many shocks to come as the case was laid out to justify their actions. Were the brothers victims of years of sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of their parents? If so, does that justify their actions? It wasn’t just the juries debating the issues as the trial progressed. People across the country took part in the discourse as week by week more people tuned in to see the drama play out on their televisions.

    Murder & The Menendez Brothers: Episode 2 - The Tapes

    In the months following their parent's brutal murder, Lyle and Erik Menendez went on with their lives thinking they had gotten away with it. Little did they know that one woman – a woman they had never met – would be their downfall. Her name was Judalon Smyth and had she not come forward and shared what she knew about the deaths of Jose and Kitty Menendez, the brothers might have gotten away with it. Episode two of Murder and The Menendez Brothers: A Court TV Mystery tells Judalon’s story and looks at how the Menendez brothers would, for better or worse, become the cultural icons they remain today.
