I had no idea he was that old.

the family is the backbone of civilization. the manson “family” was not.

I read a similar story on Fox. Sounds like the book could be interesting.

Hypnotized by Manson in 1961, eh? Probably turned down an invite to party at Cielo that fateful night in ‘69 too. I have to call BS on this one.

[Openurmind]

I met him, nice guy. Talked with him about an hour.

A good friend of mine, a psychologist, worked for the state of California prison system. One of her colleagues was assigned to interview Charlie, while he was at Corcoran. When he came back, he refused to ever see Charlie again. He called him the scariest person he ever met.

Vince Bugliosi, who was the DA that convicted him, once said regarding Charlie: "Of all the murderers, rapists, robbers and thieves I ever dealt with, Charlie was the only one that truly frightened me.'

Strange dude was that one.

[waterhill]

Ok. I doubt.

Manson always looked like he was high on lsd. Although, I have read he preferred to hold back while dosing his family. He probably thought he had the power to destroy the world at any second if he wanted to. He believed what he was saying.

[The Right Edge]

sounds to me like he needs more money. No one EVER “hiptomized” me! Now... I did fall prey to a few narsicist women(my fault - I DO NOT BLAME THEM!), their beauty, lies, selfishness + my desires and hopes for the future = their gain via my pain. OH! If I could go back knowing what I know now. The crap I could avoid.

"...used a piece of string to keep his pants up.”

Manson was no Epstein.
