The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation has reportedly delayed parole hearings for Erik and Lyle Menendez by over two months.

Officials resentenced the Menendez brothers on May 13 to 50 years to life in prison, making them eligible for parole nearly 30 years after their conviction for the murders of their parents, José and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home in 1996.

The parole hearing, originally set for June 13, will now take place August 21 and 22, ABC News reports.

As previously reported by CrimeOnline, a jury sentenced Erik and Lyle Menendez to life in prison without the possibility of parole for fatally shooting their parents in the den of their Beverly Hills home on August 20, 1989.

The brothers said they killed their parents after suffering years of sexual abuse by their father. They also alleged their mother ignored the abuse.

In 2023, their attorneys filed a habeas corpus petition in Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing newly uncovered evidence, including a letter Erik wrote to his cousin Andy Cano months before the killings. The letter described alleged sexual abuse by their father.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has asked the parole board to conduct a full risk assessment to determine if the brothers pose a threat to public safety.

According to ABC News, before the parole hearing delay, the June 13 date appeared tied to Newsom’s clemency review, not standard parole consideration.
