In 1989, brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez killed their parents by shooting them multiple times at close range at their mansion in Beverly Hills. They were found guilty of first-degree murder and conspiracy to murder in 1996, and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

The brothers were resentenced to 50 years to life in prison, which makes them immediately eligible for parole.

A California judge ruled Tuesday that Erik and Lyle Menendez can be resentenced, clearing the way for the siblings to receive a lesser penalty for the 1989 shotgun murder of their parents.
