Is Charles Manson the ultimate scapegoat of the American justice system?
I´m a foreigner and not a fanboy, but to me it seems a bit far-fetched idea that this one man was convicted of being both Jesus Christ and The Devil (literally)
Here is article from the 70s during the trials: >Tuesday, August 18th, 1970 >LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18 – Linda Kasabian testified yesterday she believed Charles Manson was “the Devil” after she witnessed one of the Tate-LaBianca murders and was afraid to tell authorities because she believed he might kill her daughter. >The 21-year-old mother of two, who has been on the witness stand 16 days, has testified she once believed Manson was “the Messiah”
You never gave him even a chance to defend himself or explain his actions. Instead, he was convicted being both Jesus Christ and The Devil and boomers blamed all the bad things that happened in the 60s.
Christopher Lee
FUCK CHUCK and fuck you OP for making this piece of shit relevant.
Josiah Jones
Can we get the true "redpill" about him?? People are very mad about him on twitter & shit.
Zachary Ross
He is meat thrown to the crowds. There are literally politicians worse than him. I'm not even sure he was guilty.
Adrian Wright
There was a really good podcast series about him by a female historian who specialised in old hollywood called you must remember this. It was fucking awesome except for her terrible acting. She is shit at dialogue but the story is great and well worth the listen.
Leo Brooks
How many people did he kill?
Ryan Martinez
His mother was a whore who would fuck men next to him. Iirc he had to join in sometimes or fill in for her. He was deeply disturbed.
Landon Reed
Boomers are fucking retarded...who knew
Bentley Davis
He comes from Mountain Men stock with a mother that had a serious history of criminal activity, and a lot of times he spent with no parents at all because his mother was in jail for shit like armed robbery.
He was sexually abused by some accounts, definitely endured seeing his mother railed by his own account.
He was a manipulative degenerate that kept a small harem of guys/girls that he constantly dosed with drugs in a hippie commune that he called "the Ranch".
He was shortly involved with one of the Beach Boys (moved into Dennis' house I think ) as he was trying to get himself into the rock'n'roll scene, but him and his ilk were a little too ridiculous and eventually I think they left the house to him because he simply wouldn't leave.
He talked a lot of pseudo-logical nonsense that was mostly sophistry designed to make up for his own shortcomings and excuse his ridiculous behavior.
By admission of the girls (Leslie Van Houten) he orchestrated but did not carry out the murders by his own hands, but there's some speculation that he killed people and wasn't caught.
Seriously, just a piece of shit that glommed on to the "free love" movement to take advantage of vulnerable girls and boys to spread his deranged ideas that was a bunch of bullshit laced with truisms.
Camden Williams
There is a whole book about him called helter skelter that will inform you more than a thread will when most people here are too young to even know about him.
Thomas Brooks
exactly zero.
Joshua Murphy
He was absolutely complicit in murder.
He may not have dealt the final blow, but he orchestrated the deaths of people.
He definitely by his own admission shot Bernard Crow and was present at the killing of Hinman.
Dominic Rogers
So why was he sentenced to death and afterwards for lifelong prison?
Evan Evans
This. Good book
Easton Hill
He manipulated his followers into doing the murders. What is so complicated in that? I don't see people defending crime bosses who order assassinations
Mason Gutierrez
fascinating guy
but i found it terrible how dumbfucks like guns n roses singer made him some sort of "cool guy", running around with shirts with his face and everything
Colton Perez
I swear it's the only time in my life where I actually see Sup Forumslacks trying to defend a drugged out hippie nutbag.
The man co-opted a movement trying to be a degenerate rock star and when no one wanted to support his shitty music he chimped out and tried to start race wars and orchestrated murders.
He deserved to die in jail, he even said himself that he belonged in jail.
Seriously reminds me of self identified "lefists" wearing Che shirts unironically.
Evan Green
>You never gave him even a chance to defend himself It's never a good idea to do that. Lawyers always advise to not get on the stand
Joshua Bennett
Well a majority of people here believe in race wars and such, of course a lot of them also defend Manson. As long as there is a racialist connection between a person and their action, Sup Forums will always defend it no matter how evil.
Ayden Howard
He was literally the patsy for ritual murders by the satanic jew elites in hollywood/folgers. His followers were MK Ultra mindslaves. CIA did this ritual for several reasons but subverting the antiwar movement was a big one.
Julian Williams
>He was a manipulative degenerate that kept a small harem of guys/girls that he constantly dosed with drugs in a hippie commune that he called "the Ranch". Serious question: Was the fact that he was charged for manipulating people used in the case of the girl who caused her boyfriend to kill himself by sending sms recently?
Asher Lee
Especially when he showed up to court with an X carved into his forehead
Ian Lopez
Charles Manson never existed there were no "Tate murders" "the Family" was CIA nigger actors
gtfo of here with your faggotry
Ryder Harris
Adios habbibi
Angel Hill
The murders were drug deals gone wrong
Aiden Baker
well i was not trying to defend him but he still is the prime example on how people begin cults, theres no other person where it is so well documented on how to do it so ofcourse its a Sup Forums relevant figure
Connor Williams
What are you talking about?
He was never "charged with manipulating people". He was charged for first-degree murder because he ordered his followers to kill people.
Nicholas Flores
the girl was not charged for manipulating neither.
Joseph Allen
It's baffling, the guy is everything Sup Forums says about niggers.
Hit me up with some snackalicious factoids.
I genuinely don't know, I heard of that case but didn't pursue much of the proceedings.
I was agreeing with you Toothpaste-bro.
Brandon Howard
the devil is symbolic, christianity is entirely symbolic. anyone who thinks one person is the son of God or the Devil is fucking braindead
Cooper Taylor
Yeah, so what the fuck are you talking about?
You literally asked if the fact that he was charged with manipulation had any effect on the girls trial. He wasn't charged with it, so what are you asking?
Not trying to be an asshole, but what you are writing doesn't make much sense.
Evan Morales
>"charged with manipulating people" why did the women came out from prison earlier than him then?
William Nelson
It was implied that she was manipulated into doing the crimes, and a mixture of drugs/brainwashing is what drove her to do it.
