An “inaccurate” and “imprecise” story
Launched in September 2022 with a first season dedicated to the story of Jeffrey Dahmer, the series Monsters looks back at various events that occurred in the United States. For its second season, the program focuses this time on the lives of Lyle and Erik Menendez.
The two brothers, played on screen by Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez, were convicted in 1996 for the murder of their parents. They confessed to the facts and justified their actions by claiming to have been victims of sexual and physical abuse by their father.
But since the airing of season 2 of Monsters on Netflix, Erik Menendez has come out of his silence to criticize the veracity of the series. In a statement posted on the account Facebook of his brother, the latter attacks Ryan Murphy’s program and denounces an “inaccurate” and “imprecise” account of the story of his brother Lyle and his family.
“I thought we moved past the lies and ruinous portrayals, creating a caricature of Lyle rooted in horrible and blatant lies spread throughout the show,” Erik said on Facebook.
Huge success on Netflix, Monsters had also been criticized during its first season by relatives of Jeffrey Dahmer’s victims, who denounced the platform’s complacency with the subject. Despite everything, a third season of the series is already in preparation.
