Overview
- Governor Gavin Newsom has set June 13 as the date for a critical report on the Menendez brothers' risk to society, which will influence his decision on clemency.
- Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman has withdrawn support for resentencing, citing the brothers' alleged failure to accept full responsibility for their actions.
- The Menendez brothers' lawyer and family members accuse Hochman of re-traumatizing victims by dismissing claims of abuse and demanding admissions they argue are untrue.
- A resentencing hearing is scheduled for March 20-21, which could lead to parole eligibility if the court rules in the brothers' favor.
- The case has become a politically charged issue in California, with diverging opinions from current and former district attorneys and a pending clemency decision from the governor.
