Menendez Brothers Condemn Netflix Series as Kardashian Visits Prison

Erik Menendez slams Ryan Murphy's portrayal while Kim Kardashian discusses prison reform with inmates

A new Netflix drama about brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez, who were convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, has drawn criticism from one of its subjects. Meanwhile, a high-profile visit by Kim Kardashian to the prison housing the Menendez brothers spotlighted ongoing discussions around criminal justice reform.

Erik Menendez released a statement denouncing the Netflix series “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” for what he called its “dishonest portrayal.” He said the show undermines progress made around understanding the effects of childhood trauma. Menendez particularly objected to how his brother Lyle was depicted, describing it as “rooted in horrible and blatant lies.” The brothers have long claimed they killed their parents after suffering years of physical and sexual abuse by their father.

Menendez said the series removes important context by focusing on sensationalized characterizations rather than addressing the abuse claims. He worries it pushes understanding backward by reverting to outdated narratives. The statement serves as a reminder that true-crime dramatizations impact real people affected by the cases.

Around the same time, Kim Kardashian visited the prison housing the Menendez brothers along with her family. Reports state she and others spoke to about 40 inmates, including Erik and Lyle Menendez, to discuss the reform initiative Greenspace. This aims to improve prison yards in supporting rehabilitation.

Kardashian’s involvement in criminal justice reform precedes this visit. Her appearance in the Netflix drama also connects it to her ongoing work with its director Ryan Murphy. The timing highlights the interplay of entertainment, justice, and reality for high-profile cases like the Menendez brothers.

While viewers continue debating the ethics of consuming true crime content, the Menendez case itself remains active. Their attorney recently said new testimonies could potentially reduce the brothers’ convictions from murder to manslaughter, altering a case that has engaged the public for over 30 years.
