Erik Menendez, one of the brothers convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, has been hospitalized with a serious medical condition, reportedly kidney stones, just weeks before a scheduled parole hearing.
His attorney is urging for his immediate release from prison on medical grounds, citing the severity of his condition. The situation has drawn attention as California Governor Gavin Newsom will have the final say on the Menendez brothers' parole by Labor Day. The case has reignited public interest due to its notoriety and the timing of Erik's health crisis.
