*Fun fact:* Manson was played by the same actor (Damon Herriman) in both the Tarantino film "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and in the Netflix series "Mindhunter", despite both products being completely unrelated between them

My whole life I have known a friend's father was once a member of Manson's "family". He got smart, got clean, and left before all the murdering happened, but Dad told me that my best friend's father had said Manson was the most hypnotizing speaker he'd ever heard.

I did not dare bring this fact up to the man himself until Charles Manson passed away. Only then did I ask him how he felt about Manson being dead, and he said, "I was one of his followers, the Family, for a time in my life!" I told him Dad had told me that from my earliest days, and I had always known. He was astounded, because it was such a tightly kept secret locally. What he said about Manson being dead was, more or less, "I'm glad. I spent decades feeling like I have to look over my shoulder, because I left..." In other words, he didn't have to be afraid for himself or his family any more.

This guy was just a master manipulator who managed to roam free for a few years

The most infamous murderer that never murdered anyone

The last time they released Manson from prison he actually begged them to stay.. Manson was basically raised in prison.

Steven Parent wasn't in the main house. He was visiting William Garretson, in the caretaker's home. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The animation here of Manson is VERY generous on his height. 🤣

Somebody a couple years ago said his time at Father Flannigan's "Boy's Town" simply consisted of him going in the front door acknowledging them to tell them what they wanted to hear and walking out the back and not returning ... Sad as that may have been.

When the product of one of the toughest prison eras takes advantage of the burgeoning peace and love movement.

I just saw the movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood the other day, and I had no idea it was based on this! So cool to learn about the history!
