Erik Menendez returns to prison after hospital stay: report
Erik Menendez, one of the brothers serving a 50 years-to-life sentence for the 1989 murders of his parents in Beverly Hills, has returned to state prison in California after being hospitalized last month for kidney problems, according to a family member. "My dad is out of the hospital and back at the prison, preparing for our upcoming parole hearing,' his stepdaughter Talia Menendez wrote on Instagram stories, TMZ reports. Menendez was temporarily removed from the San Diego-area Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility last month and hospitalized for about a week for what his attorney called a 'serious medical condition.' The treatment included multiple surgeries to remove kidney stones, TMZ reported at the time. Menendez, 54, and his brother Lyle, 57, are both serving lengthy sentences for the 1989 killing of their parents José, a prominent record executive, and Kitty Menendez, in a case that has dominated headlines for decades. In May, the pair's life sentences were reduced to 50 years to life, making them eligible for parole. They are slated for back-to-back parole hearings on August 21 and 22. Last month, a judge ordered Los Angeles prosecutors to explain why the original murder convictions should not be re-examined, given new evidence that emerged, that could support the brothers' claims they killed their parents over alleged persistent sexual abuse at the hands of their father. The Menendez brothers' first trials ended in hung juries and the second saw the judge exclude evidence including testimony from family members who said they had witnessed or heard about the alleged abuse. Earlier this year, California Governor Gavin Newsom ordered a 'risk assessment' investigation into whether the brothers are fit to re-enter society. The governor could grant the brothers clemency though he has indicated any decision regarding their sentences would not occur until after their parole hearing. The Menendez case has been the subject of media interest, books, films and documentaries for years. Last year, their story was fodder for the Netflix series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Kim Kardashian visited the brothers in prison that year and has advocated for their release.

Wordle hints today for #1,508: Clues and answer for Tuesday, August 5
Hey, there! We hope your week is off to a terrific start. Keeping your Wordle streak rolling along can certainly help with that. In case you need a helping hand, here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Tuesday's puzzle (#1,508). It may be that you're a Wordle newcomer and you're not completely sure how to play the game. We're here to help with that too. What is Wordle? Wordle is a deceptively simple daily word game that first emerged in 2021. There is one five-letter word to deduce every day by process of elimination. The daily word is the same for everyone. Wordle blew up in popularity in late 2021 after creator Josh Wardle made it easy for players to share an emoji-based grid with their friends and followers that detailed how they fared each day. The game's success spurred dozens of clones across a swathe of categories and formats. The New York Times purchased Wordle in early 2022 for an undisclosed sum. The publication said that players collectively played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024. So, it's little surprise that Wordle is one of the best online games and puzzles you can play daily. How to play Wordle To start playing Wordle, you simply need to enter one five-letter word. The game will tell you how close you are to that day's secret word by highlighting letters that are in the correct position in green. Letters that appear in the word but aren't in the right spot will be highlighted in yellow. If you guess any letters that are not in the secret word, the game will gray those out on the virtual keyboard. However, you can still use those letters in subsequent guesses. You'll only have six guesses to find each day's word, though you still can use grayed-out letters to help narrow things down. It's also worth remembering that letters can appear in the secret word more than once. Wordle is free to play on the NYT's website and apps, as well as on Meta Quest headsets and Discord. The game refreshes at midnight local time. If you log into a New York Times account, you can track your stats, including the all-important win streak. How to play Wordle more than once a day If you have a NYT subscription that includes full access to the publication's games, you don't have to stop after a single round of Wordle. You'll have access to an archive of more than 1,500 previous Wordle games. So if you're a relative newcomer, you'll be able to go back and catch up on previous editions. In addition, paid NYT Games members have access to a tool called the Wordle Bot. This can tell you how well you performed at each day's game.

Those who are still stumped after that can continue on to find out the answer for today's Wordle. This should go without saying, but make sure to scroll slowly. Spoilers are ahead.
