Are they innocent or guilty? The debate revolving around Erik and Lyle Menendez has been circulating since the early ‘90s and had recently made a comeback on TikTok as many sympathised with the individuals involved in the infamous case.

Since it resurfaced, the case managed to get Ryan Murphy’s attention, the director and producer of the controversial Netflix series, Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, which gained the top spot when it was first released. Watch the announcement trailer here.

The Menendez brothers created a buzz years ago after they were charged with the gruesome murder of their parents. But what created a timeless frenzy and endless debate is their defence statement that both Erik and Lyle were victims of sexual abuse by their father.

A lot of headlines and newspapers at the time created a greedy rich kids narrative to the case but after they confessed the brutal childhood that they had to endure, people’s views began to shift. The power of the internet spawned a recent discussion on whether their case should be reopened, almost 30 years after the brothers’ incarceration.

However, Murphy is not the first to interpret Erik and Lyle’s story as many raced to produce their own iteration of the morbid case, including NBC’s Law & Order: True Crime.

Murphy has been known to produce disturbing shows with horrific details in his work, including the critically-acclaimed American Horror Story and The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, which was a huge success for Netflix. It was reported that the show gained almost a billion view hours in its first 60 days.

As of now, Netflix revealed that they gained exclusive access to Lyle and Erik Menendez’s case and had ordered two instalments from Murphy and Ian Brennan’s anthology series. But the details are still scarce but we predict that the show will be the most watched show when it's released.
