Watch The Menendez Murders: Erik Tells All

After the verdict comes in, at the last minute, Erik Menendez and his brother, Lyle, are sent to separate prisons. Erik marries and begins to mount an appeal.

The first trial ends in a stunning surprise verdict. Erik spotlights the prep for his second trial, his unlikely connection with OJ Simpson and why he alone is left to speak for both the brothers as a second jury weighs a sentence of life in prison or death.

Erik Menendez recalls his mother's decline in the years leading up to the murders and looks on as his brother Lyle testifies, vividly describing the abuse at the hands of their father. Later: Erik tries to find the strength to take the stand.

The Trial of the Century takes a shocking turn when the defense says Erik and Lyle Menendez killed their parents after years of sexual abuse. Erik tells his harrowing account of growing up in the Menendez "House of Horrors."

In 1989, 21-year-old Lyle and 18-year-old Erik Menendez walked into their parents' den and killed them. In this limited series premiere, Erik Menendez himself shares in stunning detail the events of the week leading up to the murders and the motive behind the crime that shocked America.
