A new court date has been set for the Menendez brothers due to the Los Angeles wildfires.
The resentencing hearing that was scheduled to take place on Jan. 30 and 31 has now been bumped to March 20 and 21, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman announced on Friday.
The continuance is due to the impact of recent wildfires on the parties’ extensive preparations for the hearings, said Hochman.
On Jan. 3, the DA met with members of the Menendez family, who have been petitioning for resentencing or clemency for Erik and Lyle Menendez, who have served more than 30 years in jail for the 1989 murder of their parents.
