  • “'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 Wrongful Conviction of Charles Milles Manson
    45.2LEONETTI_3.1.16 (DO NOT DELETE) 3/12/2016 2:40 PM EYE OF THE BEHOLDER: THE WRONGFUL CONVICTION OF CHARLES MILLES MANSON Carrie Leonetti I. Imagine two crime stories. In the first, a commune of middle class, law-abiding young people living on the outskirts of Los Angeles were brainwashed by a dominating cult leader who ordered his followers to commit murders to usher in an apocalyptic race war. In his subsequent trial, the leader of the “kill-coven”1 engaged in outrageous behavior because he thought that mainstream society was inferior to him and incapable of understanding. In the second, a group of young, middle-class hippies, caught up in the summer of 1969, heavy drug use, and group contagion, committed the same murders. Afraid of the death penalty and having to face public responsibility for their actions, the murderers accused a mentally ill drifter, a delusional schizophrenic, whom the group had adopted as a mascot, of directing the murders. The only significant evidence implicating the drifter in their crimes was their claim that they were “following” him. The claims were given in exchange for leniency and immunity from prosecution for capital murder. Even prosecutors who charged the drifter conceded that he had not actively participated in the murders, proceeding to trial instead on the theory that he had commanded the others to commit the murders like “mindless robots.” The police and prosecutors went along because they wanted to “solve” and “win” the biggest case of their lives. The drifter’s Associate Professor, University of Oregon School of Law.

  • Excised from Reclaiming Parkland
    Chapter 1: The Prosecutor “People say I’m an extremely opinionated person. If opinionated means that when I think I’m right I try to shove it down everyone’s throat, they are correct…As for arrogant, I am arrogant and I’ m kind of caustic….The great majority of people I deal with are hopelessly incompetent, so there’s an air of superiority aBout me.” Vincent Bugliosi, Playboy, April 1997 Vincent Bugliosi was born in 1934 in the northern Minnesota town of Hibbing. That town was named after German immigrant Frank Hibbing. Hibbing was an iron ore prospector who discovered the great Mesabi Iron Ore Range in Minnesota. That range was later purchased by John Rockefeller, sold to Andrew Carnegie, and eventually became part of J. P. Morgan’s United States Steel. Bugliosi’s parents, Vincent and Ida, were immigrants from Italy. His father worked in the iron ore mines, then owned a grocery store, and ended up working as a railroad conductor. Bugliosi attended a Catholic school, played sports in high school, and became quite proficient at tennis. He eventually became Minnesota’s state high school champion and Northwest junior champion. He was good enough at tennis to win a scholarship to the University of Miami, Florida.8 It was in college where Bugliosi, at age 20, met his future wife Gail, who was 16. Bugliosi met her while working at a tennis shop in Miami. In July of 1956, a little over a year after they met, they were married.9 After graduating from Miami, Bugliosi entered the service.
