This film explores the story of the Mendes brothers who were tried on national television for brutally murdering their parents in Beverly Hills. It seems that this issue has become a national concern for everyone, where there are many attempts to reveal what really happened. This series explores the trajectories of this crime and the media circus and explains in detail the daily battles of the trial against them.
The chung-chung chimes of the Law & Order brand have never sounded so ominous or mournful as at the start of the franchise's new foray into docudrama, with the clunky title Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders.
The scripts, mostly written by L&O veteran Rene Balcer, do a nifty job of carving a clean narrative trail through the usual true-crime cloud of ephemera.
