Chloë Sevigny and Javier Bardem are set to star in the second season of Ryan Murphy’s anthology series “Monster.” They will play José and Kitty Menendez, the parents of the infamous Menendez brothers.
Jose Menendez, the father of Lyle and Erik Menendez, was a successful Los Angeles businessman before he was killed at the age of 45, along with his 47-year-old wife Kitty Menendez, in the family room of their Beverly Hills home in 1989. The scene was so gruesome it was initially investigated as a mob hit, according to the Los Angeles Times, though authorities eventually narrowed in on the couple's sons, charging them with their parents' murders in 1990.
Days after Erik Menendez was charged with burglary, Jose Menendez drove to the sheriff's department in Malibu in a van containing most of the stolen items, and wrote an $11,000 check for the items that had not been recovered, according to 'The Menendez Murders.' Erik Menendez was sentenced to probation, community service and compulsory counseling, leading Kitty Menendez to ask her psychiatrist for a recommendation for a therapist for her son.
