In one of those contests, a photo of Jackson was snapped while he was making a bounce pass near the sideline. Seated on the far left end of the image were two young men watching the game. Avid card fans identified these two as the Menendez brothers, Lyle and Erik.
Back in August of 1989, these two committed the hideous crime of murdering their parents at home without anyone knowing about it. The pair went on to claim a massive insurance payout that allowed them to live a luxurious lifestyle. Both Lyle and Erik spent that money to purchase expensive watches, clothes, and cars. Among the items they bought were tickets to a basketball game at Madison Square Garden, where they would eventually be immortalized on an NBA card.
The brothers were eventually arrested in March 1990. It was only a few years ago when eagle-eyed fans saw the two on Jackson’s card and authenticated their presence at that game.
