A new series from Netflix about two brothers who killed pais was heavily criticized by two men who inspired the production.
Monstros – Irmãos Menéndez: Assassinos dos Pais It premiered last week and quickly became one of the most assisted platforms on the streaming platform.
A series starring Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez as two brothers, and Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny as their country.
Lyle and Erik Menéndez are two brothers who killed their country’s millionaires on August 20, 1989. José and Kitty Menéndez were shot dead in their apartment in Beverly Hills.
The brothers, who were 21 and 18 years old at the time, initially told the police that they found dead people and arrived at home.
No entanto, foram julgados e condenados pelo parricídio.
At the time, the brothers affirmed that we committed murders in legitimate defense, after years of alleged physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
O Ministério Público, por outro lado, argumentou que eles queriam matar os pais pela ança.
Eles were sententiados à prison perpetua, sem possibility de liberdade condicional.
Uma “desalentadora calúnia”

In prison, through a letter published on X (formerly Twitter) by his wife, Erik Menéndez questioned the production on the following day of his debut, affirming that it was a “disappointing calumny”.
“I thought that as lies and as tendentious representations que recriavam Lyle eram coisa do passado, que hadim criado uma caricature de Lyle based on horrible and descaradas lies and que agora voltam abundar na série”, he highlighted.
“Só posso accreditar que fayamin isso de propiso. Com grande pesar, digo que accreditor que Ryan Murphy [criador da série] não pode ser tão ingênuo e impreciso sobre os fatos de nossas vidas a ponto de fazer isso sem má intention”, accrescentou o irmão mais novo.

“It’s sad for me to know that Netflix’s dishonest representation of the tragedies that surrounds our crime made us go back several steps in time as painful truths, for a time when the promoters built a narrative based on a system of beliefs according to qual mens não eram abusados sexuallymente e que homens experienciavam o trauma da violation de maneira diferente das mulheres”, he continued.
“Essas mentiras horríveis were dementidas e expostas por innumerable victimidas ajosas que superaram sua gonha pessoal e falaram com couragem ao longo das ultimas two decades”, said Erik.
The Netflix drama presents the assassinations from different perspectives and explores what could have been done by the brothers and sisters.
No entanto, the production made an effort to show things from the point of view of the country, something that its creators affirmed based on deep research.

These dramas were idealized by Ryan Murphy, director, screenwriter and producer behind the series Glee, Hiss, Vigilante, Feud, American Horror Story, Hollywood e Ratchedem partnership with Ian Brennan, com quem também criou Glee.
In his statements to Entertainment Tonight, Murphy said: “Acho interesante que tenham feito uma declaración sem ter assistedo ao programa”.
“It’s really difficult, se se trata da sua vida, ver sua vida na tela”, he recognized.
Legenda da photo, Director and screenwriter Ryan Murphy spoke about the series at an event in New York earlier this month.
“O que me parece interesantes, e que ele não menciona em sua declaración, é que, se você assistir ao programa, diria que 60-65% da nossa série se concentra no abuso e no que eles afiram que accursori”, said Murphy.
“Fazemos isso com muito cuidado e damos espaço para que eles contem sua versão, e falem abertamente sobre isso”, he continued.
No entanto, accrescentou Murphy, he and his team felt that it was important to also show things from the point of view of the country.
“Neste tempo em que as pessoas podem falar sobre abuso sexual, discutir e escrever sobre todos os pontos de vista pode ser controverso”, he apontou.
“Houve quatro pessoas emballadas, duas delas estão mortas. O que aventa com os pais? Como narradores, tinahamos a obrigação de entrar incluir sua perspectiva a partir da nossa pesquisa, e assim fizemos”, defendedeu.
