The two-day proceeding in L.A. ended on its first day with the judge resentencing the brothers who have spent more than three decades behind bars for their parents' 1989 murders.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Michael Jesic reduced the brothers’ sentences from life without parole to 50 years to life. They’re now eligible for parole under California’s youthful offender law because they committed the crime under the age of 26. The state parole board must still decide whether to release them from prison.

The Menendez brothers, imprisoned since 1990, could be on a path to release after they were resentenced. See the whole timeline of their murder case.
