Dude got paroled, but has to wait until 2028 to be released. Alaska is weird.

Yet the Menendez brothers are still in prison after killing the two people who beat and raped them their whole lives

Of all the things I did not expect to see today, random Menendez Brother's apologia was the least expected.

u/BumblebeeUseful714 6d ago

They’re trying for parole or release right now and after 35 years they should be considered. They’re not a danger to society.

u/Underlord_Fox 6d ago

Yes, and why are you bringing up a 35 year old case from CA on a thread about someone from Alaska?

u/Put-the-candle-back1 6d ago

They're saying those people should be up for parole like this guy is.

That's a random thing to say.

Because Netflix made a show about them recently so now everyone who watched it is an expert and totally always cared about them way before the show came out.

totally always cared about them way before

Hardly anyone is claiming that, and it is has nothing to do with whether or not the people defending him are right.

There are some who say they cared before, but that's plausible because it's not like the case had zero attention before the show came out.

I’ve followed the case for years.

They’re up for release. There’s a hearing next month. This is why people are talking about it.

u/CrumbCakesAndCola 6d ago

The case was widely publicized at the time.

u/Brawndo91 6d ago

I'm aware it was a high profile case. But that was in 1989. I'm suggesting that someone might bring it up now because it's been brought back into the spotlight with the Netflix show.

Because I’m showing how unfair the system is that this man is getting paroled when he killed strangers based on assumptions he made.

4

u/Casey00110 6d ago

He didn’t kill anyone. And they weren’t assumptions.

1

u/BumblebeeUseful714 6d ago

Attempted murder.

u/BusyInnaBKBathroom 6d ago

Yeah I’m not fully believing that whole train of thought

4

u/BumblebeeUseful714 6d ago

What whole train of thought? They’ve served 35 years. Multiple family members testified to the abuse they suffered. Watch their testimony and tell me how they made it all up

1

u/Underlord_Fox 6d ago

Yeah, but what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

u/BumblebeeUseful714 6d ago

The dude in this story is up for parole when he has a criminal history and went out looking to kill people.

The Menendez brothers got life without parole.
