After winning their resentencing bid Tuesday, the Menendez brothers are one step closer to their freedom. Erik and Lyle Menendez have spent more than three decades behind bars for killing their parents,

A Los Angeles judge has resentenced the Menendez brothers, making them eligible for parole after serving prison time for the shotgun murders of their parents at their Beverly Hills, California, home in 1989.

A judge's decision to reduce the Menendez brothers' sentence for killing their parents in 1989 enables a parole board to hear their case. Gov. Gavin Newsom could still intervene.

Lyle and Erik, who are now 57 and 54, now qualify for parole — leaving their freedom in the hands of the state parole board and Gov. Gavin Newsom.

A judge’s ruling made Lyle and Erik Menendez eligible for parole, but they still face multiple hurdles in their fight to be released from prison for the 1989 murder of their parents.

As a court reviewed the Menendez murder case, the culture and politics of the 1990s were scrutinized almost as much as the horrific crime.

Erik and Lyle Menendez will have a shot at freedom for the first time in decades after being convicted of their parents’ murder 30 years ago
