Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story has been a huge hit for Netflix since it was launched in September 2024. It has led to questions over the life sentence they received back in the 90s, and renewed calls for their release. The Los Angeles District Attorney, George Gascon, has been vocal in his support of the Menendez Brothers' release. However, doubts have been raised about the chances of the Menendez Brothers gaining freedom as Gascon has just lost the election to Nathan Hochman.
