The Menendez brothers‘ prison is taking no chances with security threats following the major update in the infamous siblings’ case … TMZ has learned.
A source within the California Department of Corrections tells TMZ … prison security has been beefed up after L.A. County D.A. George Gascón‘s announcement, in which he confirmed he would ask a judge to resentence Erik and Lyle Menendez — who are currently serving life without the possibility of parole sentences for the 1989 murders of their parents, Kitty and José Menendez. Gascon filed the document officially asking a judge to resentence them Thursday evening.
We’re told guards are working overtime to keep everyone safe inside the prison … as well as outside the facility, given the likelihood that lookyloos will descend upon the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego County.
Our source says there’s a chance someone somewhere will try something stupid regarding the siblings … as this is a high-profile case right now.
