The Menendez hearing is now under way. It started about 15 minutes late, possibly because the LA District Attorney was giving a press conference outside the court. The brothers have joined via a video link from prison. They are incarcerated near San Diego at a prison just north of the border with Tijuana, Mexico.

A judge will hear arguments over the suitability of Erik and Lyle Menendez for resentencing at a scheduled two-day court hearing in Los Angeles.
