Gascon ignored brother of Kitty Menenedez, lawyer says

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon has recommended that the Menendez brothers be resentenced for the murders of their parents, which has sparked criticism. The brothers’ uncle, Milton Andersen, has opposed their release and has not been kept informed by Gascon’s office about any decisions. Gascon’s decision to recommend a sentence of 50 years to life for each brother has raised concerns about his motives, especially as it comes during a tough re-election campaign. Critics, including former federal prosecutor Nathan Hochman, have accused Gascon of manipulating facts for political gain. Gascon’s handling of the case has been criticized for lacking integrity and respect for the victims.
