Part 2/11:
Critics argue that Murphy’s rendition of the Menendez case strays far from the truth, especially with its implications of an incestuous relationship between the brothers—a narrative that has been thoroughly debunked and dismissed by credible sources. The series seemingly suggests that the brothers' motive for the murders was to conceal a sexual relationship, a claim that is neither supported by evidence nor accepted by the involved parties. Many feel that this fabricated aspect disrespects the real victims—Eric and Lyle, who are serving life sentences—and reduces their complex case to sensationalized fiction.
