Erik expressed himself through his wife Tammi Menendez on X (formerly Twitter) in September.

“I believed we had moved past the lies and ruinous character portrayals of Lyle and created a caricature of Lyle rooted in horrible and blatant lies that are rampant in the show,” Erik said. “I can only believe that they did this on purpose. It is with a heavy heart that I say: I believe that Ryan Murphy cannot be so naive and inaccurate about the facts of our lives that he can do this without any bad intentions. “

E! News has reached out to Murphy and Netflix for comment on the 53-year-old’s comments and has yet to hear back.

In 1996, after two trials, Erik and Lyle, 56, were convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder for the 1989 slayings of their father and mother in their Beverly Hills home. The brothers were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Lawyer Leslie Abramsonwho represented Erik in the lawsuit in the 1990s, did not mince words when asked about the Murphy series.

“That piece of shit I heard about? No,” she said in a video published by Entertainment tonight October 9. “I don’t watch that.”

“I will not comment on my client,” she added. “None.”
