Erik and Lyle Menendez, wearing blue prison uniforms, listened as relatives broke down in tears, begging the judge to set them free during the first day of a two-day hearing.

The two-day proceeding in L.A. ended on its first day with the judge resentencing the brothers who have spent more than three decades behind bars for their parents' 1989 murders.

Netflix may revisit The Menendez brothers' story as their resentencing opens the door to parole, decades after their infamous 1989 conviction.

Jose Menendez and his wife Kitty Menendez, the parents of Erik and Lyle Menendez, were shot and killed in their Beverly Hills mansion in August 1989. In July 1996, the Menendez brothers were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

A judge ruled Friday that a resentencing hearing for brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez can go forward next week, potentially clearing a path to parole decades after they killed their parents.
