Nearly two dozen family members will hold a news conference outside the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in downtown L.A. at 1 p.m. PT Wednesday. It was not clear whether Gascón, a progressive who is running for re-election, plans to appear outside the courthouse. The Menendez brothers are “cautiously optimistic” about the prosecutors’ review, Geragos told NBC Los Angeles on Tuesday. Erik and Lyle Menendez were found guilty 28 years ago and sentenced to life in prison without parole. The family members slated to speak at Wednesday’s news conference include Anamaria Baralt, niece of José Menendez; Joan Anderson VanderMolen, sister of Kitty Menendez; Karen VanderMolen, niece of Kitty Menendez; and Brian A. Anderson Jr., nephew of Kitty Menendez.
