[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were the Menendez brothers legitimately molested by their Father or did they just use the “abuse excuse” to try to avoid prison time??

If not - they did a pretty decent acting performance during their first trial.

Their recent claims that the main reason the killed their parents was because they were afraid their Father was going to murder them so they killed their parents as a form of self~defense.

But they were both adults - if they truly feared for their lives they could have just left home.

And why did they feel the need to spend so. much. money so soon after being forced to shoot their parents in self-defense?

When if the letter to the cousin re: being molested was intentionally written 9 mos. prior to the murders as part of the murder plan?
When if they had planned the murders ahead of time then waited the nine mos. so the letter could not be used as a motive for the murder in its initial stage??

Why did Erik confess to murdering his folks to his therapist yet made no mention of being molested?
I mean, if you feel comfortable confessing something as huge as murdering your own parents to a therapist then you should also feel 💯% comfortable discussing sexual abuse.

I am the same age as the brothers are now (55) and I disagree with the fact that sexual molestation was super taboo during 1989.
While it wasn’t discussed as much as it is these days - it certainly wasn’t taboo.

I would love to know the mystery of if any incest actually took place prior to the murders….[/quote]

Others have come out and said they were also abused by that man, and witnesses say he used to take the boy up into the shower with him as punishment. I mean….[/quote]

Yes, I have heard that a former member of the 80’s boy band Menudo came forward recently & claims that the father molested him as a kid.
But is that truly in itself so much of a smoking gun to get the brothers out of prison??

While Jose Menendez sounds like a complete monster to me,  I cannot fathom how his two adult sons felt that their lives were so in danger that they felt their only option was to murder both parents.

If they were little boys being molested I could empathize maybe a little bit (maybe!)
But as grown adults, Erik and Lyle had a CHOICE to form the trajectory of their futures.

They could have left their abusive Father (and possibly passive Mother.)
Instead they CHOSE to drive to San Diego and purchase firearms.

But back to the topic, I still would like to know if their Father did abuse them like they claim(ed.)[/quote]
