Los Angeles County D.A.
Sorry Menendezes Didn’t Get Warning About Crime Scene Photos …
But Hearings Are Where Truth Comes to Light
The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office is apologizing to the Menendez family for not giving advanced warning that crime scene photos would be shown at a recent hearing … but, they add the choice was made to show the full truth.
The D.A.’s office puts part of the blame on Erik and Lyle‘s request for clemency … explaining that the motion was always certain to “trigger emotions for all those concerned in a case that had lied dormant legally for over 18 years.”

The L.A. County D.A.’s Office also defends the conduct of District Attorney Nathan Hochman … pointing out he met with more than two dozen family members of Erik and Lyle for more than three hours — something they claim no prior D.A. has done for the family in more than three decades.
The statement does not include a response to the allegation that showing the crime scene photos during Friday’s resentencing hearing sent Terry Baralt to the hospital.
