Lyle and Erik Menendez infamously killed their parents in 1989. Menudo was the first mega-boy band to take the world by storm. In this explosive limited series, viewers will learn of the connection that links the two stories and could corroborate the brothers' decades-old accusations against their father, Jose Menendez. One former Menudo member could be the key to changing how the public views the brothers' case while simultaneously crusading for his own justice.

"What?? Another documentary that flew under my radar… I think I’m getting Menendzed-out 😵‍💫🥴 ▪️ I AM interested in hearing more about any sexual abuse allegations against either one of the parents, so this #documentary here looks like one I should watch, but suppose I’ll just wait to see if the new #truecrime #doc coming up on Netflix will reveal anythiing interesting 🤨 "

"I cried more than once watching this. As a kid growing up listening to Menudo, I cried finding out the hell those boys were living in. To then hear that the Menendez brothers were being raised by monsters...when I heard the one say that his mom confirmed she always knew their dad had been raping them was all I need to hear to know why they did what they did. This isn't an easy watch but a necessary watch for all those true crime fans. Justice for Menudo, Justice for the Menendez Brothers. "
