Courtroom Witness Reveals Shocking Details in Menendez Brothers' Resentencing
The Menendez brothers' resentencing trial took another turn with the testimony of Diane Hernandez, a woman who lived with the brothers for nearly two years. Hernandez's testimony provided a glimpse into the brothers' lives and personalities before and after the murders of their parents. She described the "hallway rule" in the Menendez household, where Jose, the father, would isolate himself after spending time with Erik, often claiming Erik was unwell. Hernandez also shared her own emotional response to the trial, stating, "I feel like I learned quite a bit today, and it was extremely compelling." Her testimony also shed light on Kitty Menendez's emotional state after discovering Jose's affair, describing a drastic change in her personality. The courtroom's reaction to Hernandez's testimony, particularly concerning Erik's academic achievements, added a layer of emotional contrast to the proceedings. The details provided in Hernandez's testimony offer valuable insight into the dynamics of the Menendez family and the context surrounding the infamous murders.
