Erik Menéndez is outraged over the brand new Netflix sequence about how he and his brother Lyle notoriously murdered their mother and father in 1989 … and he says Ryan Murphy went out of his option to slander the notorious siblings!
This is the deal … “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story” debuted Thursday on Netflix … dramatically chronicling what occurred earlier than, throughout and after the brothers shot their prosperous mother and father José and Mary Louise “Kitty” Menéndez.
The precise Erik known as BS on the sequence … and lambasted RM for his “naive and inaccurate” depiction of the brutal dwelling slayings that made worldwide headlines.
“I believed we had moved beyond the lies and ruinous character portrayals of Lyle, creating a caricature of Lyle rooted in horrible and blatant likes rampant in the show,” Erik mentioned in a prolonged diatribe posted by way of his spouse Tammi Menendez’s X account.
Erik straight-up accuses RM of going out of his option to paint the brothers … who, once more, had been convicted for brutally murdering their very own mother and father … within the worst gentle potential … by leaving out the brothers’ allegations of extreme abuse by their father.
“So now Murphy shapes his horrible narrative by vile and appalling character portrayals of Lyle and of me and disheartening slander,” Erik says.
As is just about widespread data — the brothers had been convicted of first-degree homicide in 1996 and alleged within the trial that the double murderers had been carried out out of concern for his or her lives after many years of violent and sexual abuse … and to not get their arms on the large inheritance.

Appears to be no big authorized motion as of now … but when an enchantment is profitable, RM may need one other chapter to his story.
