41-year-old pacifist DJ discovers his real father is legendary serial killer Charles Manson

Who's your daddy?

Oh, damn. It's Charles Manson.

A 41-year-old man, who was adopted as a 10-year-old and raised in Illinois, spoke out recently about the harrowing discovery.

"It was like finding out your father is Hitler," Matthew Roberts told The Sun newspaper.

Roberts found out about his long-lost daddy about a dozen years ago after using a search agency to find his birth mother. The birth mother told him that she had been raped and that the 1960s Helter Skelter killer was his father.

------

"I'm a peaceful person - trapped in the face of a monster," Roberts said. "My hero is Gandhi. I'm an extremely non-violent, peaceful person and a vegetarian. I don't even kill bugs."

My heart goes out to the guy. Although it's a horrid discovery, it has to stand as a solid example against eugenics. Still....yeesh.

So he felt the best way to deal with this was by going to the media?

For any media person (dj’s included), there is not such thing as bad publicity.

Who was his mother? Manson did have a son named Charlie Jr. By one of the women in his group and it was not by rape.

I suppose a third party could have contacted the media (you’re probably right however).

Don’t know if this guy’s full of crap or not—if he’s so bent out of shape by it, why’s he running his mouth about it?

I think that son you’re talking about was by Manson’s wife back in the late 50s or so—pretty sure Manson was married once or twice—there were also a bunch of kids/babies at the Spahn Ranch when it got raided after Helter Skelter—the kids were fathered by Manson or Tex Watson with some of the girls living there-Supposedly the records got sealed and they were put in foster care.

Tex Watson was allowed to marry while in prison, got conjugal rights and had more kids—who went on welfare with mommy since daddy was in the Graybar hotel.

Liberalism at its finest.

After carefully growing a Manson-like beard and long hair.
