Resentencing hearings will resume later this week for Erik and Lyle Menendez, who have spent 35 years in prison for the 1989 murders of their parents.
Last week, a Los Angeles judge ruled that resentencing could go forward for the notorious brothers, who are currently serving life sentences without parole for the killings.
A former prosecutor had recommended resentencing, which could make them immediately eligible for parole.

[quote] Fireworks and flared tempers at Menendez brothers' long-awaited resentencing hearing
Erik and Lyle Menendez's long-awaited resentencing hearing was filled with fireworks and flared tempers on Thursday as the brothers' attorney looks to get them released and Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman tries to keep the brothers behind bars.
In a filing late Wednesday, prosecutors urged the court to obtain a copy of a recently completed risk assessment conducted on the brothers by the California Board of Parole Hearings at the request of Gov. Gavin Newsom.
The filing by the district attorney's office urged the judge to delay the sentencing if the court couldn't get a copy of the report in time for the hearing.
The Menendez brothers' attorney, Mark Geragos, spoke to reporters before court Thursday, calling Hochman's last-minute attempt to delay the resentencing hearing a "Hail Mary."
During Thursday's hearing, the prosecution persistently argued the completed risk assessment is relevant.
Geragos called the prosecution's attempt a "dog and pony show." The prosecution shot back to the judge, saying Geragos' comments were degrading, after which Geragos said, "You should be degraded!"
Judge Michael Jesic appeared annoyed by the bickering and said he needed more information about the governor's office's risk assessment report and how it can be used by the court.
Jesic said he needed "clarification from the governor's office, because this is stupid."

They don't look bad considering they've been living on prison food for the past 35 years.

Keep the bald one in prison because it was mostly his idea and well...bald. Let the one with hair out because he's mostly just a dumb follower and well...hair.
