The Menendez brothers could soon walk free after a California judge slashed their sentences. Erik and Lyle Menendez got new 50-year-to-life terms this week, putting them up for parole 35 years after blasting their wealthy parents to death with shotguns. Their lawyer Mark Geragos claimed the justice system treats women differently, arguing “if these were the Menendez sisters, they wouldn’t be in custody” during a TV rant that sparked outrage.
Prosecutors fought hard to keep these cold-blooded killers locked up for life. They revealed the brothers smuggled cellphones into prison and experts warned they’re “moderately more likely” to commit violence if released. But soft-on-crime liberals in the DA’s office rolled over, letting a woke judge ignore decades of lies and manipulation by these privileged murderers.
The courtroom turned into a sob fest as defense lawyers paraded relatives claiming the brothers changed. Cousins wept about “rehabilitation” and “transformation,” ignoring how these men butchered their own mother and father execution-style. Since when do we set killers free because they’ve done some prison charity work?
This case exposes how radicals are gutting justice in America. Celebrities and coastal elites push fairy tales about criminal “redemption” while victims’ graves get spat on. Letting rich murderers buy their way out with good behavior reports and political connections makes a mockery of law-abiding families who play by the rules.
Conservatives know the truth – there’s no double standard here except for liberal hatred of successful families. Women prisoners actually outnumber men in California’s system, but facts don’t matter to activists rewriting laws to empty cells. Next they’ll say female killers deserve parades instead of punishment.
The Menendez brothers’ blood money and Hollywood connections bought them special treatment regular Americans never see. While hardworking folks rot in prison for minor drug offenses, these silver-spoon killers get celebrity lawyers and media campaigns painting them as victims. It’s disgusting.
This resentencing proves California’s justice system values criminals over victims. A judge who cares more about inmate feelings than public safety just greenlit two murderers’ early release. Patriots remember José and Mary Kitty Menendez – the real victims here, forgotten in their sons’ PR blitz.
Parole boards now hold these killers’ fate. Will common sense prevail, or will woke ideology free more violent predators? Every parent in America should watch this case closely – it shows what happens when liberals put criminals’ rights above your family’s safety.
