[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] Erik and Lyle Menendez’s aunt dropped disheartening info against her own sister — the brothers’ deceased mother — during a court appearance on Monday.

The infamous brothers have been in prison since 1996 when they were sentenced to life for the murder of their parents, Jose and Mary Louise “Kitty” Menendez.

But as we’ve been following, they have a chance of freedom as their attorneys filed a habeas corpus petition citing new evidence of their alleged sexual abuse at the hand of their father.

And Kitty’s older sister Joan VanderMolen not only supports her nephews, she’s speaking out against their mother.
