Judge Mathis Supports Menendez Brothers Potential Redemption Tour

Judge Mathis is currently on a redemption tour, visiting prisons to promote the idea of second chances to inmates and the public. He shared his thoughts on the Menendez brothers’ plan to do the same if they are released. During a resentencing hearing, retired Judge Jonathan Colby expressed interest in accompanying the Menendez brothers on a tour to discuss redemption with skeptical judges.

Judge Mathis humorously mentioned that Judge Colby had taken his idea, but he believes the brothers’ fame would attract public interest. He emphasized the importance of giving second chances, recalling his own experience of being incarcerated at 17 for a weapons charge.

Judge Mathis thinks the Menendez brothers should give back to society, and he sees their redemption tour as a great opportunity to do so. The brothers, convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, are scheduled for a parole board hearing on June 13 after California Governor Gavin Newsom dropped clemency investigations, potentially paving the way for their release.
