Fox News: California AG takes stance on Menendez brothers prosecutor staying on case amid resentencing battle
California Attorney General Rob Bonta is opposing the Menendez brothers' request to remove the Los Angeles District Attorney's office from their resentencing case, arguing that the defense has not provided sufficient evidence of bias or conflict of interest. The AG's office contends that the claims lack merit and that the DA's office can handle the case fairly.
The Menendez brothers are seeking resentencing for the 1989 murders of their parents, claiming they were unfairly convicted. The DA's office has labeled the defense's push for recusal as a "drastic and desperate step," asserting that it stems from dissatisfaction with the DA's stance on resentencing. A hearing is scheduled to address these issues.
