Juror Calls Menendez Brothers Resentencing ‘The Right Thing’

Juror Calls Menendez Brothers Resentencing ‘The Right Thing’
SHARE

A former juror from the original trial of Erik and Lyle Menéndez, who were convicted of murdering their parents, has expressed support for the Los Angeles District Attorney’s decision to request a resentencing for the brothers. Hazel Thornton, who served as Juror #9 during the first trial, stated that she believes resentencing is a step in the right direction and long overdue.

The Menéndez brothers’ case gained renewed interest following the release of Netflix’s limited series “Monsters” and documentary “The Menéndez Brothers.” The brothers were convicted of killing their parents, José and Kitty, in their Beverly Hills home in 1989 when they were 18 and 21 years old, respectively. They were sentenced to life in prison without parole in 1996.

District Attorney George Gascón announced the recommendation for resentencing based on new evidence that José allegedly molested his sons. Thornton, in an interview with the “Kyle & Jackie O Show,” shared her interactions with the brothers and described them as polite, smart, and contributing positively to prison life. She mentioned that Gascón’s recommendation was influenced by the brothers’ exemplary behavior behind bars.

Despite the recommendation for resentencing, Thornton emphasized that she does not support a new trial for the brothers. She believes that the right course of action is to resentence them rather than subjecting them to a new legal process. Thornton highlighted the brothers’ efforts to educate themselves, participate in prison reform projects, and help rehabilitate fellow inmates during their time in prison.

Regarding the Netflix series, Thornton expressed skepticism about its accuracy and stated that she has not watched it in its entirety. She believes that the series may not accurately portray Lyle and Erik Menéndez as she knows them and has chosen to boycott it. While acknowledging that there may be some truth in the series, she prefers not to devote time to what she perceives as fictionalized content.

In conclusion, the recommendation for resentencing the Menéndez brothers has received support from a former juror who believes it is a positive step forward. The brothers’ exemplary behavior in prison and the new evidence presented in their case have prompted a reevaluation of their sentences. The ongoing legal developments surrounding the case continue to generate public interest and debate. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a seismic shift in the way we live our lives. From social distancing to remote work, the virus has forced us to adapt to a new normal in order to protect ourselves and our communities. One of the biggest changes that has occurred as a result of the pandemic is the increased emphasis on cleanliness and hygiene.

Before the pandemic, many of us may have taken basic hygiene practices for granted. Washing our hands regularly, cleaning commonly used surfaces, and covering our mouths when we coughed or sneezed were habits that we may have done without much thought. However, the emergence of COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of these simple actions in preventing the spread of the virus.

As a result, there has been a significant increase in the demand for cleaning and hygiene products. Hand sanitizers, disinfectant wipes, and face masks have become essential items in our daily lives. Stores have struggled to keep these products in stock as consumers rush to protect themselves and their families from the virus.

In addition to the increased demand for cleaning products, businesses have also had to adapt to the new emphasis on cleanliness. Restaurants, gyms, and other public spaces have implemented strict cleaning protocols to ensure the safety of their customers. Many businesses have invested in new cleaning equipment and procedures to meet the higher standards of hygiene that are now expected in the wake of the pandemic.

The emphasis on cleanliness and hygiene is likely to continue long after the pandemic has ended. The lessons we have learned about the importance of basic hygiene practices will stay with us, and we will continue to prioritize cleanliness in order to prevent the spread of not only COVID-19, but other illnesses as well.

In conclusion, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we approach cleanliness and hygiene. From increased demand for cleaning products to stricter cleaning protocols in businesses, the virus has forced us to reevaluate our habits and prioritize cleanliness in order to protect ourselves and our communities. As we navigate this new normal, it is important to remember the lessons we have learned and continue to practice good hygiene habits in order to stay healthy and safe.
