Judge Mathis Supports Menendez Brothers’ Release
TV judge Greg Mathis believes Erik and Lyle Menendez should be freed after serving nearly 35 years in prison for killing their parents. Mathis believes new evidence of alleged molestation by their father should reduce their sentence.
If Mathis were handling the case, he would release the brothers immediately, considering the molestation claims.
The Menendez brothers are scheduled for a hearing on December 11th, where they could potentially be granted their freedom. Prosecutors support their request for clemency to Governor Gavin Newsom, which would allow them to be released without a hearing.
Regardless of the outcome of the hearing, it appears that the Menendez brothers are likely to be released soon, according to Judge Mathis.
