Erik Menendez dishes in prison “bullying” in the new Podcast interview

The convicted double murderer Erik Menendez, the younger of the Menendez brothers, competed in a rare interview with the “2 Angry Men Podcast” for over three decades in the California prison system.

“The prison was difficult for me,” Menendez told the hosts, Harvey Levin von TMZ and his own lawyer Mark Geragos, who spoke of his past. “I had a lot of bullying and trauma – it was a dangerous environment.”

Menendez and his brother Joseph “Lyle” Mendnez are both in California Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility for lifelong prisoners without the possibility of probation, but according to a new law of the Golden State, their penalties were reduced at a hearing at the next month and ultimately Reach freedom.

Menendez, who was convicted of his parents in 1989 for her parents in 1989, has been praised behind bars for his good behavior in the past three decades. He said he did his best to avoid, defend himself or deal with aggressive prisoners.

“I was separated from Lyle, and I remember the day that I was told that Lyle was just attacked and broken his jaw … I think he’s over there, I go through this and at least We protect everyone, maybe when we were together.

The conditions have improved over time, he added.

“I think (the California Ministry of Corrections and Rehabilitation) does its best and I want to work with them. I know that Lyle really changes this culture today,” he said. “But 25 years ago it was an even darker, more dangerous place.”

The brothers are supposed to annoy hearts in Los Angeles on March 20 and 21. The hearings were postponed several times after the former district prosecutor in Los Angeles, who was pushed for her release, had lost his re -election campaign and again after forest fires were torn through LA.

“My brother and I are careful,” said Lyle Menendez to Levin towards the end of the episode. “We are in prayer with our family and hopeful and only try not to get a little crazy in the meantime.”
