185. A Nick in Crime | Menendez One: Beverly Hills Horror

This week, we open a whole new investigation into the murders of Jose and Kitty Menendez, at the hands on their sons, Lyle and Erik. The grisly crime committed in Beverly Hills on August 20, 1989, was extensively covered by Dominick Dunne, over the course of a number of years. In this episode, we begin at the very start, by exploring Dunne’s initial coverage from October 1990. His “Nightmare on Elm Drive” is an excellent baseline for the case, still in early days, before the years make the details far murkier.
