But the kids didn't need any help from Manson. Manson took the fall for it.I really don't know enough about the Manson case to argue that point; but if Manson isn't a good analogy, does that invalidate the basic theory of the writer, in your opinion?
The writer could be correct about a lot of things. Certainly part of what she says is seriously existent today. I have no doubt Muhammad and Malvo have a lot of sympathizers happy to let them do the dirty work. I have some doubt as to whether Muhammad wanted to be caught. He was caught by accident. One of the critical leads in the case came from the U.K., of all places. Eveyrone is an authourity on what they now claim should have been obvious. It wasn't obvious at the time.
With a little more money in their pocket and a few more brain cells they could have gone on for years.
