Erik and Lyle Menendez were arrested for the brutal shotgun killing of their parents in March of 1990. It took three years of legal wrangling before they stood before a jury of their peers, who would soon learn the details of the killings from the prosecution and the shocking explanation the brothers were prepared to give in their defense. But it wasn’t just the members of the juries who would be seeing all of this. The entire country would have access due to gavel to gavel coverage on Court TV, amplifying the impact of the brother’s sensational story in ways no one could imagine at the time.
