America's Fascination with Multiple Murder
CHAPTER ONE AMERICA’S FASCINATION WITH MULTIPLE MURDER he break of dawn on November 16, 1957, heralded the start of deer hunting T season in rural Waushara County, Wisconsin. The men of Plainfield went off with their hunting rifles and knives but without any clue of what Edward Gein would do that day. Gein was known to the 647 residents of Plainfield as a quiet man who kept to himself in his aging, dilapidated farmhouse. But when the men of the vil- lage returned from hunting that evening, they learned the awful truth about their 51-year-old neighbor and the atrocities that he had ritualized within the walls of his farmhouse. The first in a series of discoveries that would disrupt the usually tranquil town occurred when Frank Worden arrived at his hardware store after hunting all day. Frank’s mother, Bernice Worden, who had been minding the store, was missing and so was Frank’s truck. But there was a pool of blood on the floor and a trail of blood leading toward the place where the truck had been garaged. The investigation of Bernice’s disappearance and possible homicide led police to the farm of Ed Gein. Because the farm had no electricity, the investigators con- ducted a slow and ominous search with flashlights, methodically scanning the barn for clues. The sheriff’s light suddenly exposed a hanging figure, apparently Mrs. Worden. As Captain Schoephoerster later described in court: Mrs. Worden had been completely dressed out like a deer with her head cut off at the shoulders. -

“'The Paranoia Was Fulfilled' – an Analysis of Joan Didion's
“‘THE PARANOIA WAS FULFILLED’ – AN ANALYSIS OF JOAN DIDION’S ESSAY ‘THE WHITE ALBUM’” Rachele Colombo Independent Scholar ABSTRACT This article looks at Joan Didion’s essay “The White Album” from the collection of essays The White Album (1979), as a relevant text to reflect upon America’s turmoil in the sixties, and investigate in particular the subject of paranoia. “The White Album” represents numerous historical events from the 1960s, but the central role is played by the Manson Murders case, which the author considers it to be the sixties’ watershed. This event–along with many others–shaped Didion’s perception of that period, fueling a paranoid tendency that reflected in her writing. Didion appears to be in search of a connection between her growing anxiety and these violent events throughout the whole essay, in an attempt to understand the origin of her paranoia. Indeed, “The White Album” deals with a period in Didion’s life characterized by deep nervousness, caused mainly by her increasing inability to make sense of the events surrounding her, the Manson Murders being the most inexplicable one. Conse- quently, Didion seems to ask whether her anxiety and paranoia are justified by the numerous violent events taking place in the US during the sixties, or if she is giving a paranoid interpretation of com- pletely neutral and common events. Because of her inability to find actual connections between the events surrounding her, in particular political assassinations, Didion realizes she feels she is no longer able to fulfill her main duty as a writer: to tell a story. -

The long Prison Journey of leslie Van Houten: life Beyond the Cult By Kariene Faith Boston: Northeastern University Press (2001), 216 pp. Reviewed by Liz Elliott n the last year of the 1960s, a decade of anomie, the U.S. experienced two I events that would symbolize different aspects of its culture into the next millennium. These events took place at opposite sides of the country, although they occun-ed less than a week apart. One event, a cultural festival of music and arts, has remained in time as an example of the possibilities of peaceful co existence in adverse circumstances oflarge numbers ofpeopJe. From August 15th to the 17th the Woodstock Music and Arts Festival's patrons endured rain and mud - and all of the other inconveniences that would reasonably accrue in a situation where unexpected large numbers ofpeople converged in one location -to see some of the decade's masters of rock and roll and folk music perfonn in the state of New York. Almost half a million people, many of whom were experiencing the event under the influence of various illicit drugs, attended Woodstock and lived together peacefhlly for one weekend. 1 Across the continent a few days earlier, the world heard the news of two ten-ible sets of murders in California that shook the sense of security that until then was enjoyed by Americans. We were soon to learn that these bizarre, seemingly ritualistic killings were the bidding of a charismatic but crazy man who was state-raised2 and resourceful. In this case the drugs were used to weaken the already fragile resolve ofyoung idealistic people who were searching for themselves and open to new ways of seeing the world. -

Volume 6 Number 064 the Manson Murders
Volume 6 Number 064 The Manson Murders – I Lead: Of the turbulent events that marked the decade of the 1960s, the chilling and notorious Charles Manson murders are clearly among most shocking. Intro.: A Moment in Time with Dan Roberts. Content: Charles Manson was born in 1934. He had an unstable childhood and by the age of thirteen was ripening into young man with a decidedly criminal inclination. After being released from a California prison in 1967, he moved to San Francisco, where he began attracting a group of devoted young people who would eventually follow him on a path of violence and destruction. Playing upon sections of the Book of Revelation and drawing inspiration from certain Beatle songs, Manson and his followers began preparing for a racial war in which black and white would annihilate each other. After this war, which Manson called “Helter Skelter,” he and his followers, or as he called them, his “family,” would emerge from a bottomless pit in Death Valley ready to lead a new society. By August 1969 the “Manson Family” was living in the run-down ranch buildings of an abandoned movie set just outside of Los Angeles, running a crime ring specializing in car thefts and drug sales. Manson, through some type of psychological control, dominated members of “The Family.” He correctly suspected that they would commit murder if he so instructed. On the night of August 9, 1969, on his orders a group of his followers brutally murdered actress Sharon Tate and four others in her Beverly Hills home. The next evening Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, wealthy owners of a grocery chain, were as brutally murdered in their Los Angeles home. -

Murder, Media, and Mayhem: The Metamorphosis of California Murder Cases to International Media Sensations By: Olivia Cusimano Advisor: Richard Perry Undergraduate Legal Studies Honors Thesis University of California, Berkeley 1 “Sometimes the power of the media, the power of the movie, can be very subtle and great.” -James Blatt, Attorney for Jesse James Hollywood I would like to take a moment to thank all those who helped me take an idea grown while watching Investigation Discovery on the couch and develop it into this project. From the initial guidance of Professor Musheno and Christina Carbone to the astute guidance of my advisor, Professor Perry, I am forever thankful. My family, too, has supported me mentally and even intellectually. To my Aunt Diane, I owe you so much for your direction and insight. I never would have parsed out a coherent thesis without our conversations at The Natural Café. Additionally, a never-ending thanks to those who supported me, made sure I didn’t give up, and listened to my unending laments without disowning me: Kent, Mike, Brendan, Safeena, Dani the entire Student Advocate’s Office, and everyone else who spent any iota of time listening to my laments. 2 Table of Contents I.

Leslie, My Name Is Evil
E1 Entertainment presents A New Real Films Production A Masculine‐Feminine Film Leslie, My Name Is Evil Directed by Reginald Harkema Producers: Jennifer Jonas and Leonard Farlinger An Official Selection of the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival, Vanguard Section www.lesliemynameisevil.com TIFF US Press Contact: Producer Contact: mPRm Public Relations New Real Films Inc. Alice Zou, [email protected] 669 Shaw St. Toronto Inter‐Continental Hotel Toronto, ON 220 Bloor Street West, Suite 325 M6G 3L8 Ph: 416‐960‐5200 Office: 416‐536‐1696 Cell 213‐359‐5775 [email protected] SYNOPSIS As the ‘60s rolled to a close, the United States was at the threshold of a turbulent time in history. President Nixon was in the White House and the U.S. was at war in Vietnam. The image of the picture‐perfect, stay‐at‐home housewife with the ideal husband and family was being threatened. Forces of change—a sexual revolution, the use of hallucinogenic drugs and a new founded challenge to authority—had crept into family rooms and dinning table conversations. Raised in a traditional Christian family, Perry leads a sheltered life, always doing what is expected of him. He has a wonderful virgin Christian girlfriend, Dorothy. He attends church with his family on Sundays and enjoys family dinners. He is following a career path that will prevent him from being drafted to fight in Vietnam. As a chemist he is book smart and company driven, but doesn’t know the harsh realities of the world. Everything he believes in is challenged the day he is chosen to be a jury member in a hippie death cult murder trial, where the defendant on trial is a strikingly beautiful woman named Leslie.
