Erik Menendez’s wife Tammi shares statement criticizing Netflix series as ‘dishonest portrayal’

Erik Menendez, along with his wife Tammi, has criticized Netflix’s show “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” as filled with lies and a horrible narrative. The show, part of the Ryan Murphy’s “Monster” anthology, depicts the lead up and aftermath of the 1989 murder of Jose and Kitty Menendez, for which Erik and his brother Lyle were convicted and sentenced to life in prison. Erik’s statement, shared by Tammi, expresses disappointment in the show’s portrayal of the events and the allegations of sexual abuse they made against their father. The statement also criticizes the show for implying a sexual relationship between the brothers, which was not mentioned in the book “The Menendez Murders” by Robert Rand. The show has received backlash from viewers and Erik’s response has not been addressed by Netflix or Murphy.
