Brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez, who were sentenced to life in prison for the 1989 murders of their parents in Beverly Hills, are scheduled for a hearing on Thursday that could determine whether they are eligible for reduced sentences and a potential path to parole after more than 30 years behind bars.

The lawyer for celebrity killers Erik and Lyle Menendez said the Los Angeles district attorney has a personal vendetta against the pair and wants him kicked off their case in an explosive courtroom hearing that left freedom for the brothers undecided.

The Menendez brothers will have to wait another month on their bid for freedom after the judge presiding over their resentencing delayed the proceedings after prosecutors filed for a continuance.
