Menendez Brothers Judge Could Free Them Without Parole Board
The judge who will decide the fate of Erik and Lyle Menendez could do way more than what the D.A. is asking for ... he could free them the very day he hears their case.
As we reported, L.A. County D.A. George Gascón has filed legal docs asking Judge William C. Ryan to resentence the Menendez brothers. Based on a new law, the judge could change their sentence -- life without the possibility of parole -- to the possibility of immediately winning parole.
Thing is ... for Gascón to get his way, the Parole Board would have to hold a hearing and then decide if Erik and Lyle have been rehabilitated and are no longer a threat to society.
