T
he notorious Beverly Hills mansion where the Menendez brothers brutally murdered their parents has been sold to a new owner, fueling public fascination with the infamous case. The Lahijani family, a prominent Iranian-American clan with significant investments in Los Angeles real estate, purchased the property for $17 million in March.
The home, which has changed hands multiple times since the 1989 killings, is currently undergoing extensive renovations after being sold to the Lahijanis through an LLC called LAHA ELM. The Menendez legacy continues to draw unwanted attention, with curious onlookers swarming the quiet neighborhood in hopes of catching a glimpse of the infamous mansion.
The Netflix true-crime series "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story" has reignited interest in the brothers' tragic story, transforming their former home into a dark tourist hotspot. Neighbors have been pleading with the Beverly Hills police to intervene due to an uptick in trespassing and disturbances from fans hoping to see the notorious mansion.
The mansion's history is marked by tragedy, as Lyle and Erik Menendez fatally shot their parents, Kitty and Jose, in 1989. The brothers claimed they acted out of self-defense against years of abuse at the hands of their father. This claim has resurfaced in a new Netflix documentary featuring recorded phone interviews between the brothers and the film's director.
The Lahijani family has not commented on their decision to purchase the infamous property, which features eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The home is undergoing significant renovations, with reports suggesting that the entire property is being gutted.
