Charles Manson
Cult leader, master manipulator, but not serial killer.
This man has had his life put in books and movies for years. There is not much that is not known about him. Charles Milles Manson was born on November 12, 1934. This would make him a Scorpio. He was born to a 16 year old alcoholic who was also a prostitute. When his mother was in and out of prison. She was not there for most of his childhood. He went from relatives taking care of him to institutions. Now, when he was a boy, he spent time in juvenile reformatories. He was in boy school. He was always a troubled person. He had a VERY unstable childhood.
1967 is when he started getting followers. He formed his cult called the family. As time was the late 60s, he was doing hallucinogenic. He liked acid and mushrooms. I’m sure most did in that time. He enjoyed playing music on his guitar. He was also instructed in Armageddon from the book of Revelations, Scientology, and the Church ir Final Judgment. He enjoyed the song Helter Sketler as well. He saw it as a race war was coming, and it was his calling to lead it.
The family acted in several murders. Including Sharon Tate. THE FAMILY did the murders. Manson himself NEVER committed murder. His “word” is what led the family to do it. He may have called the shots, but he did not get his hands as dirty as the others. He was the leader…
