Two brothers who ditched their devout Jehovah’s Witness upbringings for white supremacist ideals, complete with tattoos on their foreheads reading “Sieg Heil” and “Berserker,” are in court this week to fight for a shot at freedom after they were sentenced to life without parole for the slaughter of their family in 1995 in Pennsylvania.

Bryan and David Freeman were 16 and 17 when they pleaded guilty after being charged as adults to murdering their parents, Dennis Freeman, 54, and Brenda Freeman, 48, in a crime that also left their brother, Erik, 11, dead. They were in court this week based on a Supreme Court ruling rejecting automatic life sentences for juveniles convicted of murder.
