FOR CONTEXT:
In 1989, Jose and Kitty Menendez were killed in their Beverly Hills home. They died of shotgun wounds. In 1990, their two sons, Erik and Lyle, were arrested for the murder of their parents after Erik confessed to killing their parents in a session with his psychologist. The prosecution framed their motive as a desire to inherit the $14M estate from their parents. The defense claimed self-defense and a desperate attempt to escape family violence and SA.

Oh my word! Carlos and Terry Baralt were our neighbors for a few years when I was in elementary school in southern Indiana. I was a few years older than their daughter Sylvia. She only spoke Spanish at the time. They were very nice people.

Thank you so much for all of the time that you've put into this and I'm so excited for you and your husband regarding your new baby
