Menendez Brothers

Menendez Brothers: Misjudged? is an HBO Max documentary about Erik and Lyle Menendez, convicted in 1996 of murdering their parents in Beverly Hills in 1989.

The Menendez brothers case is a 1989 American double homicide in which Lyle and Erik Menendez shot their parents, José and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home.

Ann C. Wolbert Burgess, born in 1936, became the first woman on the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit and a pivotal expert witness in high-profile criminal trials—from the Menendez brothers case to serial killer investigations—fundamentally changing how the justice system understands trauma and criminal behavior.
