Media and Celebrity Involvement:
The resurgence of interest, driven by Kim Kardashian and Netflix, has raised questions about the media’s role in justice.
California’s Evolving Laws:
Recent legislative changes in how the state handles juvenile abuse claims could influence resentencing or a new trial.
