I did a reading on The Menedez Brothers a while ago and you saw the same things I did. I totally got a cult vibe too. I sensed the mom was distant and the father was abusive and controlling and got whatever he wanted!

They don't seem like they acted for money but for self preservation.

[@accesstotheredcarpet]

You got a bit of that information wrong. Ant specifically said that money was not the motivating factor in the murders and that the brothers were not educated about finances like getting life insurance etc. they didn’t understand money at all. The father was sexually raping the brothers whilst the mom was complicit throughout. It was such a messed up family that the brothers had enough and snapped that led them to kill the parents. A lady in the comments earlier mentioned that she was visiting a friend at the prison that one of the brothers are incarcerated at said she felt like the brothers should have never been given life sentence. Based on from what she learned during the visits to her friend at the prison. So, you need to watch Ant’s reading again. Also, research the murders story in the archived articles on what the real motives were. You can’t call kids brats when they have been constantly raped by the parent such as what exactly happened to this case. Sad story!

They are in prison forced to relive this monent forever, until recently they were separated and isolated. To a lot of people, he and Kitty looked like the blameless victims. It took years for people to come around to the brother's side and believe them whereas if it was reported then and there, their reputations would have taken serious hits but only now 30 years later other things are coming to light. So yes, for over 30 years, Jose did win. 5:56-This accounts for their behavior after the crime and the various mistakes like the spending spree, telling Oziel, not destroying escape plans letters, letting Norma write the book etc. As me, my Mom, and sister said, "They were abused absolutely, but they really didn't help their case any." Unlike say Jeffrey Dahmer or the Iceman, they weren't serial killers with a blood lust, money hungry, or professionals. They were kids who were fed up, scared, angry, and not very bright. 6:14-Yes, their close bond was evidence of that. Also Erik at the time had various learning disabilities and was described as having the emotional intelligence of an 8 to 10 year old. Lyle even says says now that he would have taken Erik, forced him into the car, ran away, and took their chances as though Erik would have been incapable of making those decisions on his own. It's also worth noting that Lyle exhibited a childlike nature as well in that he talked to and played with stuffed animals until he was about 17. 6:32-That could be Oziel who recorded their sessions and whose girlfriend turned them in. Despite insisting that it wasn't the Mom, it also lines up with her too. According to Erik, Kitty told them that she knew about the abuse for years and didn't say anything. She also took part by abusing and molesting Lyle. So she did betray them. 7:02-No need to elaborate on that one definitely abuse. 8:50-Yes, the initial plan was that Erik would have attended Princeton with Lyle or at least lived with him there and played tennis. Their father let him apply to various colleges but specifically not Princeton. (Lyle thought that Jose didn't think that Erik was goid enough. Personally I think it's because Jose knew that it would make them happy but also just as afraid that they would start talking to each other about what he did). Even after the murders, Lyle still tried to make arrangements to move his brother to Princeton. 9:30-Trauma bond. Well that is pretty obvious. 10:55-Spooky! The inciting incident that led to them expecting their father to kill them was after Erik admitted the molestation, Lyle confronted his Dad and said that he was never going to touch him and if he did, he would report it. Jose said something like they made their choice and that he would do what he had to do. 14:25-This one is so eerie! Because now since this video aired, it has been reported that Roy Rosello of Menudo admitted that Jose molested him too! Its only been reported in the past maybe year or so if that. Also there was found a letter that Erik wrote to his cousin one year before the murders where he admitted the molestation. They may even get released. 15:06-He dies with a secret that was uncovered.... until now! 16:00-Executive Producer of RCA would have put him in contact with various young recording artists, most prominently Menudo. 17:30-I don't think that they knew that at the time but they certainly do now and who knows how many others would have been hurt had Jose remained unpunished? I have a feeling that if he lived and Lyle and Erik reported it, if that wouldn't have stopped him the Me Too Movement certainly would have. Dang, Ant you're good!

[@laurelsheart]

I watched that video on tennis training with his father, televised before the murders happened. It was totally abusive and disgusting. I feel sorry for these brothers, they were abused for sure.

[@lianawelsh9350]

Where is this video? 🥹

[@laurelsheart]

@@lianawelsh9350 i watched it as a TV program, I thought they later used it in court, not sure.

You have the best readings on social media. I love how you take your ego out of it and just let the cards do their thing 🔮

[@nlopez714]

I’ve always sided with them. I don’t know how the jury didn’t see it. It was such a sad and unfair life for them, so horrific to be abused by both parents! God bless their heart. Thank you for this reading, Ant. ♥️✨

[@princecornell639]

The Melendez brothers did claim sexual and physical abuse by their father as the reason for the murders. They also said their mother was an abusive alcoholic and encouraged her husband to abuse them.

[@wendybond2848]

They endured so much as children. I have always felt very sad for them.

[@JG-qe1iw]

Their cousin and aunt spoke about the abuse. They confided in the cousin and aunt. Also the mom knew about the abuse all along. That was the ultimate betrayal. One of the Ex Menudos band members has came forward with the abuse as well.

[@kwr1015]

I lived on Elm in BH, it was well known Daddy was a horror to both boys, murder was not the best option but the abuse was known and no one believed it - awful

[@melo17]

this reading is so accurate. I know this story by heart and a lot of things that you said happened

[@RedRobin88]

Yesss he's spot on, I know this story well and everything he said is exactly correct

[@OLALALA1019]

They should NOT be in prison. Period end of story.

[@Morgan24_7]

I was really young when this happened. Now that I am grown, I believe every word they say.

[@kslinaz5668]

Yeah, Jose was quite the creep. When you watch the two brothers while they're testifying and being interviewed, you can feel their pain. Another thing that's interesting in watching these two men is they seem happy now. It's a very odd thing, but they seem to be at peace and are free.

[@ACS402010]

And the mother was a creep and sexual predator just as much. She abused her sons just like the father did. Don't put it all on the dad. The mother and father were BOTH abusive.

[@Lilah1848]

I feel like this is your most accurate reading yet. I knew from the moment I saw the brother's testimonies of abuse in court that they were telling the truth. It's so heartbreaking that at the end of it all, they still feel trapped by their dad because he essentially stole their lives.

[@Jsanjuanico]

Yep! Dad allegedly abused the Boy Band “Menudo.” Which is probably the secret he never wanted out but ex groups members are now confirming. Ricky Martin was also part of that group.

[@szendrich]

This is so sad. :( First time I heard of the case, but it intrigued me enough to listen. Many thanks for sharing your insight. I feel for these two young men. Their lives were ruined by their parents. But the fact that they will now spend their lives in prison for basically defending themselves is just too tragic. I hope that true justice will be served.

[@jamikatechaos9972]

Finally, some positive truths being revealed in 2024! These brothers were victims. Their parents were the real monsters! I hope Lyle and Erik get exonerated and released soon.

[@onceminutosgirl]

Ant, as per usual, you did an incredible reading. I’m always blown away by your insight.

[@bookedoutsocials]

Omg!! The part where you mentioned the sabotage @9:07, I was watching the boys cases & Erik mentioned how a week before the murder his Father told him he was not going to Stanford for school and that he will never leave this house and is going to UCLA. He mentions how distraught he felt afterwards and that's when he put his foot down and went to Lyle & finally told him that the S.A wa still going on, he recalled feeling like his freedom was taken away from him which led to the spiral. Omg you were spot on!!!

[@leagavin2]

Watching the tv show and listening to this all makes sense. They need to get out prison. Ant you are so talented.

[@jenniferbecca3837]

With everything going on today with the Menedez brothers, it's insane how accurate this reading is!

[@krisekman9316]

Coming bacl to this after watchng Monsters on Netflix and 😱 ding ding ding!

[@ljpj7132]

Things are coming out now that prove you were spot on in your reading. The family member that knew was a cousin. A letter was sent to him 9 months before. And when you mentioned if he, the dad, was part of an organization like the Boy Scouts, well he was the head of RCA records and had access to boys who were in the music industry. One member from the Group Menudo is alleging that he was drugged and assaulted by him.

[@jenb7769]

This reading seems so spot on after watching the 2024 documentary! You’re the best!!!

[@glo0907]

Thank you so much Ant for doing this reading! It is such a tragic case and my heart aches for all that they've been through. I think they still feel like the dad won because he did. They were sent to prison with no one (initially) believing their story and they continue to suffer because of it.

[@Impassion]

Wow... powerful reading. I am old enough to remember this case when it happened. Sad to hear, over and over, that almost all criminals seem to always be horribly traumatized children.

[@ckmarker]

Pt. 2: Jose Menendez's Secrets This is some major generational trauma. A part two dive into Jose's childhood/early life would be interesting. Also, he was a record executive who was responsible for promoting the Puerto Rican boyband Menudo in the US. Ricky Martin was in this group. Semi interesting.

[@gizzyq2051]

OMG ricky martin was just caught today for having SA’ed his own nephew!!!

[@madelineescobar5716]

Menudo it’s known to have a dark history of the boys being Raped too that’s crazy, I didn’t know there was a connection with menudo and the dad, and now it came out the Ricky Martin was having an incest relationship with his nephew jeez

[@ckmarker]

@@gizzyq2051 Yeah, I thought that was strange.

[@soybean1989]

One of your best readings!! LOVE the true crime, i think it helps a bit when you have some background to the case to help connect the dots like you did on this one. Great work thank you!!!

[@carolorsmond8642]

Praying for their release asap.🙏❤And a whole new life of Health Healing and Happiness for the brothers. Thanks so much for this reading you are truly a gifted psychic detective💚💙💜

[@lawlaw4109]

I love watching stuff about these cases after you do a reading. It gives such perspective. I’m just as clueless as you on most of these cases, so I’m gonna go down the rabbit hole after this. Also after you said dad got what he wanted, my initial gut reaction was that dad would have took himself out which you eventually came to. I was so happy you validated that because it means I have an inkling of intuition lol Edit: just watched 1.5 hours about the case and watching those boys have to testify about their abuse broke me. The fact that the public mocked them and made them a laughing stock is so gut wrenching. A former juror had said it best: those parents were terrorists that created bombs that killed them.

[@OrchidJayne]

Erik wrote a letter to a cousin who passed away. And the letter was found recently. Dr Oziel was the therapist for Erik and he confided to him as well. Lyle threatened his Dad right before all of this and Jose went nuts. of course because he was with a record company

[@susanandrews3859]

Didn't the cousin testify in court to saying that yes he had being told .

[@liliwonka1637]

This is so spot on. I agree with what you said about the events happening that night. They were only 19 & 22, just kids. I think they threatened for money to get out of there once and for all and it went crazy and their rage against both parents for the unthinkable abuse they endured exploded. Excellent reading! Hopefully enough outcries and pressure on the right people for them to be resentenced.

First of all, I just want to say SORRY to the person(s) that have been wanting this reading for FOREVER long, and I was like, "nahhh that will be boring." THIS WAS SO GOOD!! One of the best ones in my opinion. I wasn't expecting all that. But as I was listening I was researching and it does look like the dad was into some really sick stuff.

[@CaNTjOURnEeY87]

What kind of sick stuff. Are u referring to the rape or did u read anything that Ant was alluding to about the cult stuff

@@CaNTjOURnEeY87 it was an interview with his “Madam” and she was talking about his preferences, and how he was so abusive to one of her girls that she stopped returning his phone calls.

Your reading is SPOT on! Everything you said, 1000%! Wow! The father’s friends and family had no clue the type of monster he was, truly I speakable things. I think the dad’s side of the family knew, but maybe didn’t want to believe it or didn’t want to “destroy” the father’s life 🙄

[@TheJBite]

I can't believe they did believe these kids, but they believe OJ Simpson. The amount of injustices it's crazy!!!

[@maryjanedodo]

Early 90s were wild

[@jenpw1525]

The problem was they killed their parents and then went on a shopping spree. That is what made them look like cold stone killers

[@TheJBite]

@jenpw1525 Right, but going on a shopping spree doesn't equal murder. Sincerely, they were kids, and the adult in their family they told the truth, too, didn't protect them.

[@Rckxs]

You just added a major piece. From what I read this case was political. After OJ got off they couldn’t let another major case go so they were the fall guys in politics.

[@TheJBite]

@Rckxs i heard that too in the bio film they did on the brother's on hulu. Also, their father was an executive at a rexird company...with all the P Diddy stuff going on makes me wonder if their dad was ever a participant of those parties...👀

Eric confided too his cousin there was really close I think and he also told his mum kitty and she said that she always knew I think that was the tipping point there was also really paranoid that they mum and dad wanted too kill them

The secret the dad died with, was he did the same thing to another male who recently came forward. He said what the dad did to his sons, that the dad also did that to him in their home. Nothing stays hidden forever.

Great reading i got goosebumps i know the case pretty good reading on po😮int . Thank You 😊❤

[@marian9410]

blown away by your reading yet again. Very plausible. Am sure you have managed to figure out some of the underlying energies. What a tragedy. I don't know why there is no possibility of parole for these men. It's almost as if the justice system doesn't want them to go free to tell their story....

[@lavishrw]

To give some insight into what you read, Erik was about to move into college right before this happened, but hi dad was still abusing him and told him he had to stay living at home. God you are good! Ant nailed it again 😊

[@DuckiesLife]

First thing i thought was your shirt saying "Real Monsters" (and yes, i know the 90s show) is very fitting to the topic

[@EileenKerr]

100%Ant. I feel exactly like you. Apparently they were sexually abused by their father. When you go through trauma as a child you you never really grow up. They did confide in a cousin if I remember correctly. I feel for these brothers even though murder was not the answer. Their father was so controlling they obviously felt trapped with no way out.

[@happydayz7857]

Yeah they confided in their cousin and youths. And apparently an uncle also knew.
