Los Angeles DA to withdraw recommendation to reduce Menendez brothers' prison sentences

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman stated he opposes resentencing Lyle and Erik Menendez due to their lack of honesty about their crimes, indicating they have continuously lied since their trial in 1989.
Hochman compared their case to that of Sirhan Sirhan, saying both failed to demonstrate full accountability for their actions.
The Menendez brothers' family criticized Hochman's remarks, claiming he does not meet the standards for resentencing, whereas Hochman supports future resentencing if the brothers acknowledge their past lies.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is reviewing the case and suggested a new parole board process that may help more prisoners have their sentences shortened.
