Charles Milles Manson
(born November 12, 1934 as Charles Milles Maddox)
The founder and leader of the "Manson Family," an alleged
religious cult whose members he commanded to commit the August,
1969, Tate-LaBianca murders in Los Angeles. He is currently an
inmate at Corcoran State Prison in California, having been denied
parole many times.
Manson has spent most of his adult life in prison, initially
for offenses such as car theft, forgery, credit card fraud and
pimping. In the late 1960s, he migrated to California, wanting
to become a musician; instead, he befriended the young, disenfranchised
people he met and began calling them his "Family."
He ordered them to kill movie actress Sharon Tate who was eight
and a half months pregnant at the time. He was convicted of conspiracy
to commit murder. He is serving a life sentence in California's
Corcoran State Prison, and will be up for parole in 2007 at the
age of 73. Manson has always maintained his innocence of the
Tate-LaBianca murders.
Since his trial and conviction, Manson's name and image have
been integrated into American pop culture, typically as a symbol
of evil. |
