The Menendez brothers are serving sentences of life in prison without parole. Last October, amid a flurry of renewed attention to the high-profile case, D.A. George Gascón said he would ask a court to lower their sentences to 50 years to life, which would make them eligible for parole.

The Los Angeles district attorney said Friday he opposes a new trial for Lyle and Erik Menendez in the 1989 killing of their parents but hasn't made up his mind on whether to support a resentencing bid that could lead to their freedom after nearly 30 years in prison.
