Tamara Goodell : DA's conduct "eroded any remaining trust" in the DA's office.

Lyle and Erik Menendez are serving life in prison without the possibility of parole for the 1989 murders of their parents Jose and Kitty Menendez .

Hochman 's "hostile, dismissive, and patronizing tone created an intimidating and bullying atmosphere," she says.

Gascón praised the work Lyle and Erik Menendez did behind bars to rehabilitate themselves and help other inmates. Hochman , who became DA in December , is expected to release his position on resentencing imminently. He is holding a press conference at 10 a.m. local time Monday .
