Columnist, blogger and social media personality Perez Hilton told Fox News that if the brothers are paroled, “a lot of people will turn against them.”
The brothers lost their multimillion-dollar inheritance due to a state law that prevents murderers from profiting from the deaths of their victims, Fox News reported. But Hilton is confident they will have opportunities to make money almost instantly.
“They will have a smart team with all the people they might need: an agent, a manager or a publicist, a business manager,” he told the outlet. “They will support them financially for the rest of their lives.”
When it comes to their private life, Hilton also predicted trouble ahead, stating that at least one of them will end up divorced.
He said: “Imagine that suddenly you’ve been locked up in prison for over 34 years, you married someone because you never thought you’d get out, and suddenly you’re free.”
Erik, 53, and Lyle, 56, may receive resentencing, as recommended by Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon.

Lyle and Erik’s direct messages on social media are “going to be flooded,” he added, pointing to the fact that the women have already sent them letters in prison.
Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon recently asked that the brothers be considered for parole, arguing that the couple has “paid their debt to society.”
In 1989, Lyle and Erik massacred their parents, Jose and Kitty, in their family home after what they claimed was a lifetime of abuse.
After a complicated series of trials, the first of which was declared a mistrial, they were sentenced to life in prison without parole in 1996.
After more than three decades in prison, a Netflix series shed light on his story, causing a public uproar.

Although Gascón recommended that they be resentenced, the courts will have the final say.
A Los Angeles Superior Court judge will make the decision at a hearing, which is expected to take place within 30 to 45 days after the prosecutor’s resentencing unit, headed by Nancy Theberge, coordinates with the courts to set a date.
One of the brothers’ attorneys, Mark Geragos, said he believes they will be home in time for Thanksgiving.
