Cooper Koch’s Emmy nomination interviews included his chat withVariety being interrupted by a call from California’s Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility. On the other end of the line sat Lyle Menendez, who was calling to offer his congratulations on Koch’s nomination as Outstanding Lead Actor In A Limited Or Anthology Series or Movie for playing Lyle’s brother, Erik, in Ryan Murphy’s Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.
