Not cool... LSD trip AND the sinking stomach feeling from a burger that can happen sometimes... yikes that's got to be weird.

Sharon Tate, the woman he had killed, begged for the life of her unborn baby as she was stabbed to death. He even murdered several of his followers when they tried to leave his cult. They buried the bodies in the dessert and have yet to be found. He deserves to rot in prison. Death is too good for him.

I never heard of this. I know he beheaded Shorty Shea, but he wasn't exactly a follower.

I watched a learning channel program (Discovery, True Crime, dr) about how they found a body near his old compound in the California desert and they were trying to ID it but it didn't match any descriptions of people that went missing from his cult. One family is still looking for their son/brother that followed Manson and assumes Manson and his "family" offed him and buried him in the desert.

I suppose it's possible. Thanks for the info!

Does anyone else see a bit of a resemblance to California Attorney General Jerry Brown? Sure, Jerry's missing the swastika and has a straighter nose, but...

he wanted the death penalty and one time..seeing that in his view ..he would be a martyr

That wouldn't be good, particularly if there are still misguided folks who consider the things he does to be important.

exactly sister purple, he gets allot of letters from people requesting his advice and wanting to marry him

He hasn't got out and killed anyone else. I guess at some level prison is working.

I don't know much about this case really though. The little I do know, I would imagine he has a personality disorder and a total lack of empathy, some kind of sociopath. People like that need to be kept away from ordinary society, obviously, and I am not sure anyone knows enough about the condition to rehabilitate someone like that. As I understand it, there is no way of doing so.

he needs a total lack of a pulse.

I wonder how Chuck kept from getting shived in prison after all these years.

[almaty 19]

brohter MD, i think he checked himself into P.C. (protective custody).... home of the sexual perverts and snitches

[Nagishkaw 510]

He's in segregation.

California releases photo of Manson at age 74

Associated Press

March 19, 2009, 3:10AM

LOS ANGELES — California corrections officials have released a new photograph of convicted mass murderer Charles Manson, who is now bald with a thick gray beard.

The photo of the 74-year-old Manson was taken Wednesday as part of a routine update of files on inmates at Corcoran State Prison, where he is serving a life sentence for conspiring to murder seven people, said Seth Unger, spokesman for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

The cult leader was first sentenced to death for the 1969 murders of movie star Sharon Tate, coffee heiress Abigail Folger and three others stabbed and shot to death at Tate's home in Los Angeles. The next night, two others were stabbed to death at their homes.

The image — complete with a swastika carved into Manson's forehead — was released to the Los Angeles Times because the newspaper requested a copy the next time it was taken.

Manson's co-defendants — Susan Atkins, Leslie Van Houten, Patricia Krenwinkel and Charles "Tex" Watson — were convicted with him. Their death sentences were commuted to life when the death penalty was briefly outlawed in America in 1972.

The last time I saw this nut was when Geraldo Rivera interviewed him.He's still as crazy as ever I bet.

According to him,he never actually killed anybody.He got those spoiled little rich kids to do it for him back in the day.
