Charles Manson follower Leslie Van Houten released from prison a half-century...

It's not like she cut out a live baby out of the pregnant Actress Sharon Tate. Then killed Sharon and baby.  Here is Sharon Tate with Dave Draper to make it bodybuilding related.

Exactly.

I hope she dies painfully on her first day of freedom.

Waifish, psychedelic, ranch orgy, nightly, 70mm-style hippy sex.

Matt C fish and bush approved.

Wholesh.

She stabbed that poor woman over a dozen times! ... the terror that poor woman went thru! Imo she should have never gotten out! .... I hope some relative of that woman's family dishes out some " street justice!" Since the courts failed them!

Part of the parole consideration was that she was brainwashed by Charles Manson to do the stuff.  Even if the death penalty wasn't outlawed, it would not have made a difference.  Her conviction was also overturned for withholding evidence and misleading the jury so her sentence was actually 7 years to life in prison.   After 22 parole hearings and given her age, its hard for any jury to believe that she is going to go out and start stabbing people although its happenned before.   She was 17 when she joined the Manson Family, she went to prison when she was 19....now she's 73.  She has practically spent her natural born life in prison.

I hate to say this but she would have never done those things if she wasn't under the influence of Charles Manson...and LSD.   I think she regrets every simple day she even met him.   I don't worry about her re-offending...I worry more about people like Squeaky Fromme who is still a Manson follower.   You should see what she's been up too.

I just don't think any of them should ever be released!! (I don't care if one cut the baby out of Sharon Tate / or one held down Rosemary Labianca put a pillow over her head and stabbed her 27 times ! ) anyone involved in those gruesome Tate/Labianca murders should never ever be released out into the public again! They forfeited that Fucking right!

agree. The world has enough people, we are not short on people. Those that have exhibited behavior that atrocious, screw em. 

[Bevo]

Van Houten by some margin had the most going for her out of all the Manson girls - looks, brains, social standing, homecoming princess - but all brought undone by being a diagnosed follower and replacement father figure seeker, a propensity to drugs and addiction (via her father), a whole lotta resentment based on teenage-era episodes (forced abortion, divorce with a weird parental dynamic) and being at the right place at the right time but meeting the wrong person. The little rat-faced weasel Charlie exploited things deftly as only a lifetime criminal with an obsession with Scientology and human manipulation ,pimp aspirations, god complex, and an even bigger resentment could do

A reasonable and legally solid case can -and obviously ultimately has been made - for her release given its been 50+years now along with some mitigating circumstances such as her youth at the time, brain washing, excellent prison record and perceived reform/insight.......but the nature of the crime, its attendant deserved infamy, the trial antics, and the fact she effectively was the only killer to essentially volunteer to go out and murder sort of makes it a "nah you shoulda stayed locked up for life" in my book

Fucking her back then would have been something else! A big gulp of man juice all over her face and pussy

[delon]

As an indication of how much Manson had got into his followers heads this little nugget from the trial is telling

Susan Atkins - she of the hairy upper lip - literally mouthing in real time Manson's replies to reporters questions

Some have questioned whether this is real or a clever edit but there are photos and other video that line up with this scenario taking place i.e. they were both in the courtroom at the moment he was talking to the press, and her head turning away from the afro lady in both the video and the photo that broadly line up with her looking in his direction, and also her eye movement when the reporter asks the question is bang on

Part of this is no doubt that he had a lot of stock phrases and common verbal ticks (eg repeating a question back), but still..he had isolated and worked on them with purpose for a while, they were putty in his hands

Still don't think leslie should have got out however

[Agnostic007]

Charlie didnt kill anyone...

Funny you say that. He didn't. He manipulated people to do what he want but he was no where near the crime scene. He spent a lot of time grooming and influencing them until he could get them to do some pretty atrocious things for him, yet in 1971 a jury of his peers sentenced him to death which was commuted to life in prison. Fast forward to Jan 6th...

Charlie would agree.

[excellent detail snipped]

I never really learned much about this before, so this is probably the most ill-informed comment in the thread, but in that picture I'm picking up distinct tranny vibes - did Manson actually fuck his groupies?  Hmmm... ... I guess what I'm really asking is - was he sexual..?

Haha yes apparently very sexual, lots of organised orgies up at Spahn, and he wasn't averse to a bit of man-on-man love either, as well as an unsavoury proclivity for the younger ones (ruth ann, dianne lake)

Yet despite having leslie on tap,the relatively plain squeaky fromme was said to be his favorite, on the right in the below NSFW link:

True, dennis wilson was left with "the largest gonorrhea bill in history" after the Family crashed his pad for a few months

Along with hairy legs, armpits and a smelly, hairy ass crack.

Sharon Tate with Bruce Lee to make it Martial Arts related.

Bruce was investigated for the Murders back in the day.
A distraught Roman Polanski suspected the murder was the work of someone close to he and wife Sharon Tate, at one point testing Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee Was Roman Polanski’s Number One Suspect After the Murder of Sharon Tate

Chinese aren't known for murder. Mao not included.

I don't care if the dog is mad when it attacks me. I want it dead. The result outweighs any excuse.  This new liberal thinking excusing criminal behavior with mental illness is mental illness itself.
