Erik and Lyle Menendez, who were convicted of murdering their parents in a case that shook America more than three decades ago, are a step closer to being released on parole.
A Los Angeles County district attorney has recommended that the brothers be resentenced by a judge because new evidence merited a review.
They are currently serving life in prison without possibility of parole in California.
For the brothers to gain their freedom, a judge would have to agree with the recommendation and then a parole board approve their release.
The 1989 murders of Kitty and Jose Menendez in their Beverly Hills mansion have gripped the US for years, recently inspiring a popular Netflix series.
