HAVE FUN IN HELL, CHARLIE


"It seemed that the girls worshipped him, would just die to do anything for him." -- Linda Kasabian

Finally, on Sunday, November 20, 2017, the human monster who was Charles Milles Manson departed this world. And it couldn't have come too soon. Costing taxpayers millions of dollars since his first incarceration in childhood, it is almost inconceivable to think that a man who spent most of his life in prison was out, running free in the world long enough to mastermind and commit atrocities heinous enough to have his name immortalized near the top of the roll call of criminal history.

For untold numbers of Southern Californians, August 1969 was the date that changed the way that they lived. The Tate-La Bianca murders that were orchestrated by Manson swept through the Southland like on the wings of a plague, and if there was a single person that wasn't horrified, their nervous system must have been unplugged. It was the time that I heard many people say, "I'm locking my doors now", after they found out that Manson's followers played a game of "creepy-crawly" where they gained entrance into homes and committed burglary and other mischief they thought whimsical in their LSD-saturated brains while the occupants were asleep.

In the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Michele Hanisee, president of the Association of Deputy District Attorneys, reacted to the death [of Manson] by quoting the late Vincent Bugliosi, the Los Angeles prosecutor who put Manson behind bars. Bugliosi said: "Manson was an evil, sophisticated con man with twisted and warped moral values."

"Today, Manson's victims are the ones who should be remembered and mourned on the occasion of his death," Hanisee said.

May the hot, dry Santa Ana winds blow through Spahn Ranch in the Santa Susanna Pass and cover the blasphemous ground that you walked on, Charles Manson. Good riddance -- and may Hell welcome you in its fiery arms.

Following is the conclusion of the article about the Tate-La Bianca murders in REAL CRIME #30. The first part was posted HERE.
