Why did he wait so long to come forward about being molested? Didn't the Menendez brothers get convicted of these murders ages ago? Then again, back then, molestation may not have carried the same weight that it does today.
I know it takes victims a long time to process SA and feeling safe enough to come forward. He may have also felt afraid of the brothers.

There's a documentary on Netflix now entitled Monsters that is about the Menendez brothers. Is that the one to which you are referring? I mean, in addition to the one with Evan Peters (which is a different one). But there is also one on Netflix entitled The Menedez Brothers. So, there are two separate movies/docuseries about them going on now?
As far as the abuse, I think that people rarely take sexual abuse upon men or boys very seriously. They laugh about it and think men really want it or fantasize about it. It's really screwed up.

I watched the TV series before I watched this documentary and from the TV show, I actually first thought that they were lying about the abuse and only used it to try and get out of the murder charge but after watching the documentary it seemed more like they were abused, especially with the cousin testifying in court that she had been staying at the house when it happened. I had not heard of this case before I watched the TV show so I wasn't aware of the abuse accusations so when it came up, I just assumed that they were trying to get out of the charges. It will be interesting to see what happens next with this new evidence.

I had just binned off Netflix when Panther told me about the TV series so I've not seen that yet.
There's definitely more going on than them just being a couple of psychos after the money but I didn't really understand why they killed their mum.
It will be interesting to see what happens especially if more victims come forward.

Maybe they blamed the mum for not protecting them. And I think the cousin told the mum when she stayed over and the mum didn't want to know. I guess it will be one of those things where we never know exactly what happened.

Hi!
I no longer have Netflix, so I haven't seen this documentary or the Netflix movie, but I do remember the TV movie from 1994. It was quite good. If you haven't seen it, you should check it out on YouTube.
I found it!
I recall it being a two parter. Three plus hours.
Menendez: A Killing In Beverly Hills.
You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

It's Going To Be A Bumpy Night!
I miss when they made stuff like Grace and Frankie.
do you remember the case at the time?
