Rosie O'Donnell Expresses Affection for Lyle Menendez

Rosie O'Donnell recently shared her thoughts on Lyle Menendez, who, along with his brother Erik, is serving a life sentence for the murder of their parents. During a recent interview, O'Donnell stated that Lyle Menendez is the first 'straight man' she feels she can 'love' and 'trust.'

The Menendez brothers were convicted in 1996 for the 1989 killings of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home. The case garnered significant media attention due to its shocking nature and the brothers' defense, which claimed they acted in self-defense after years of abuse.

O'Donnell's comments have generated varied reactions on social media, with some expressing support and others questioning her perspective. The nature of their relationship remains private, but O'Donnell's public declaration has brought the Menendez case back into the spotlight.
