Rosie O’Donnell Details Relationship with Lyle Menendez

Rosie O’Donnell’s Trump Derangement Syndrome forced her to flee the country.

But that wasn’t even the worst of it.

And Rosie O’Donnell revealed she’s in love with this jailed murderer.

As Liberal Hack Watch reports:

Erik and Lyle Menendez became notorious figures in American pop culture back in the mid-1990s.

A jury in 1996 convicted the Menendez brothers of killing their parents – Jose and Kitty – in 1989 after a trial that captured national attention after Erik and Lyle claimed the killing was in response to years of abuse at the hands of their parents.

The 2024 Netflix show “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” brought new attention to the trial as the show detailed the murders with the brothers’ perspective as the central narrative.

Erik and Lyle Menendez are currently fighting in court for resentencing on the life in prison without parole term they are currently serving.

And now Rosie O’Donnell is telling The New York Times that she is now friends with Lyle Menendez and the two communicate regularly.

O’Donnell – who is a homosexual – even went so far as to say that Lyle Menendez is the first “straight man” she’s ever been able to love.

“He started calling me on a regular basis from the tablet phone thing they have,” she said. “He would tell me about his life, what he’s been doing in prison and, for the first time in my life, I felt safe enough to trust and be vulnerable and love a straight man,” O’Donnell told the Times.

O’Donnell said Lyle Menendez reached out way back in 1996 when he saw O’Donnell tell Larry King that she believed the brothers’ defense that they killed their parents in retaliation from abuse.

But O’Donnell never responded to Lyle’s letter as she had yet to go public with her own allegations of abuse.

“At that point, I had not ventured anywhere near this in my family or in my therapy,” O’Donnell continued.

O’Donnell said a 2022 documentary about the case rekindled her interest and Lyle Menendez’s wife put the two in contact.

A judge recently ruled that the Menendez brothers’ motion for resentencing can proceed as they are seeking to reduce their term to 50 years to life, which make them immediately eligible for parole.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nate Hochman opposes the Menendez brothers’ scheme to get out of jail.

“Our position remains clear: Until the Menendez brothers finally come clean with all their lies of self-defense and suborning and attempting to suborn perjury, they are not rehabilitated and pose an unreasonable risk of danger to public safety,” a statement from Hochman read.

Hochman said the brothers exhibited zero remorse and are still peddling the same lies a jury rejected at trial.

“In this case, after a thorough and extensive analysis of the facts and the law, we concluded that the case was not ripe for resentencing based on the Menendez brothers’ continuing failure to exhibit full insight and accept complete responsibility for the entire gamut of their criminal actions and cover-up, including the fabrications of their self-defense defense and their lies concerning their father being a violent rapist, their mother being a poisoner, and their trying to obtain a handgun for self-defense the day before the murder,” Hochman added.
