Erik
Menendez

is
speaking
out
against


Ryan
Murphy
‘s
series
about
him
and
his
brother

Lyle
Menendez
,
who
are

serving
life
sentences
for
murdering
their
parents
 in
1989.

Erik’s
shared
his
thoughts
about

Monsters:
The
Lyle
and
Erik
Menendez
Story

in
a
message
his
wife

Tammi
Menendez

shared
on

X
,
formerly
Twitter,
Sept.
19,
the
day
the
show
premiered
on

Netflix
.

“I
believed
we
had
moved
beyond
the
lies
and
ruinous
character
portrayals
of
Lyle,
creating
a
caricature
of
Lyle
rooted
in
horrible
and
blatant
lies
rampant
in
the
show,”
Erik
said. “I
can
only
believe
they
were
done
so
on
purpose.
It
is
with
a
heavy
heart
that
I
say,
I
believe
Ryan
Murphy
cannot
be
this
naive
and
inaccurate
about
the
facts
of
our
lives
so
as
to
do
this
without
bad
intent.”

E!
News
has
reached
out
to
Murphy
and
Netflix
for
comment
on
the
53-year-old’s
remarks
and
has
not
heard
back.
