Aug. 22 (UPI) -- One day after his brother's failed bid for parole, Lyle Menendez will face the parole commissioners hoping for a successful hearing.
Lyle Menendez's hearing was scheduled to begin Friday morning in California, hours after the parole board said that Erik Menendez, 54, poses an "unreasonable risk."
The brothers' family said they were disappointed but trying to be optimistic when Lyle, 57, goes before the panel.
"While it is undoubtedly difficult, we remain cautiously optimistic and hopeful that the commissioner will see in Lyle what so many others have: a man who has taken responsibility, transformed his life, and is ready to come home," the family members said in a statement.
