Erik Menendez is requesting early release from prison due to a severe medical condition, specifically severe kidney stones and complications requiring extensive treatment. His attorney, Mark Geragos, plans to appeal to Governor Gavin Newsom for immediate release, emphasizing the seriousness of Menendez's health issues. The Menendez brothers have been incarcerated for over 35 years for the murders of their parents in 1989. They were recently given a chance at freedom after a judge resented their life terms to 50 years to life, pending a recommendation from the parole board.
Geragos told TMZ he will ask Gov. Gavin Newsom to release Erik immediately ahead of the brothers' appearance before the parole board. "It's a serious condition and he needs, I think, to be out so he can focus on the hearing," Geragos told TMZ, adding that he thinks releasing him early would be "the appropriate thing to do."
Sources familiar with Erik's treatment told The Times he's suffering from severe kidney stones and complications arising from the condition and needs extensive medical treatment.
