Menendez Brothers’ Aunt Hospitalized After Graphic Court Photos Shown, Family Blames Prosecutors

An 85-year-old aunt of the Menendez brothers is hospitalized in critical condition in New Jersey after viewing graphic photos shown in court last week. Terry Baralt, a longtime supporter of Erik and Lyle Menendez’s bid for release, was found unresponsive over the weekend by family members. According to relatives, the incident occurred shortly after she watched a livestream of a court hearing in which prosecutors presented graphic, previously sealed images of Jose Menendez’s body — their father and one of the victims in the 1989 double murder.
