Saturday Matinee: American Criminal

Saturday Matinee: American Criminal

By Airship | Noiser | Wondery

On today's Saturday Matinee: The debut season of American Criminal, which tackles one of the country’s most sensational cases: The Menendez Murders. In 1989, Lyle and Erik Menendez brutally shot their parents. Prosecutors said it was a million dollar inheritance that led two greedy kids to murder. But the picture-perfect facade this family built hid troubling abuse; could these teenagers have been driven to kill, or was it even in self defense?
