Manson follower Leslie Van Houten granted parole; Brown must make final decision
L A Times ^ | 09/06/2017 | Matt Hamilton

The youngest of Manson's followers, Van Houten has been considered the least blameworthy member of the group and has been portrayed by supporters as a misguided teen under the influence of LSD on the night of the slayings.

A former homecoming queen from Monrovia, she did not join in the Aug. 9, 1969, murders of Sharon Tate, the pregnant wife of film director Roman Polanski, and four others at the Benedict Canyon home that Tate was renting.

But the following day, Van Houten was part of a group that stormed into the LaBiancas' home in Los Feliz. As Charles "Tex" Watson stabbed Leno LaBianca, Van Houten and another woman held down Rosemary LaBianca.

After Watson stabbed Rosemary LaBianca with a bayonet, he handed a knife to Van Houten. She testified to stabbing Rosemary in the back at least 14 more times. The blood of the victims was used to scrawl messages on the walls, as had been done at the Benedict Canyon home.

a misguided teen under the influence of LSD . . . testified to stabbing Rosemary in the back at least 14 more times

I don't see how this was ever just a "misguided teen". This woman belongs behind bars forever.

Least blameworthy??? Maybe if she were driving the getaway care, that might be an excuse, but not when she stabbed someone 14 times and remembered doing so.

"She testified to stabbing Rosemary in the back at least 14 more times"

Yeah, and this is what the Mediascum calls the "least blameworthy" of the Manson freaks. Exactly how many times do you have to stab an innocent helpless person in the back before they consider you simply "blameworthy"??????

OMG, total misread.

I read it as BROWNS must make decision - like the Cleveland Browns must cut down and had to decide if they would keep a Manson groupie.

OK, I give up - why should this monster ever see the light of day?

In a sane just world, with sane people, she’d already be dust.

But then, we have democrats running things, so there goes the sane part...

Charles Manson - The Family Jams - I’ll Never Say Never To Always
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WTj4L5iBDo

I’ll never say never to always.
I’ll never say always to none.
To seem is to dream a dream my love,
cuz one is one is one.

For always is always forever
cuz one is one is one.
Look inside yourself for your father
All is none, all is none, none is one.

It’s time to call time from behind you.
The illusion has been just a dream.
The valley of death and I’ll find you,
Now is when on a sunshine beam.

So bring all the young perfection
For there love shall surely be
No cold, pain, fear, or hunger
You can see you can see you can see.

a misguided teen under the influence of LSD on the night of the slayings


I doubt that. It’s unlikely she could have functioned more than to occasionally say, “Oh, wow.”

Now we know what life without parole means. The parole board belongs in prison.

Manson was all about wanting to start race wars between black(other)/white.

Antifa are the new Manson followers...except they now do as Soros tells(pays)them.

Different cult leader, same cult message/goal...anarchy.
