Those killings changed American culture. People who didn't have home alarms quickly bought as fancy a system as they could afford. Mothers began walking their children to school. And parents and chil- dren alike had trouble falling asleep at night. Charlie Manson and his “children” robbed America of its innocence. Nearly fifty years later, Charles “Tex” Watson, the man who carried out Manson's murderous plans, was asked by a parole officer, “What made a God- fearing, churchgoing young man from Texas move to California and commit the worst killings this state has ever seen?” The officer's question was asked in a thunderous tone. He was met with silence from the prisoner and straight- on stares from famfily members of the victims. I could understand the silence. What answer could there be? As the only reporter allowed in that parole hearing in California, I brought into the room fifteen years of national television crime report- ing and, as a former federal prosecutor, hundreds of federal prosecutions. I am proud to be a third- generation federal prosecutor, after my father and grandfather before me. That same grandfather was also a judge, and my father had also served as an FBI agent. I have had a lifetime of law enforcement exposure and experience, and yet I was as bewildered as the parole officer by the crimes. This mystery is part of the reason behind this reexamination of ix HuntingCharlesManson_1P.indd 9 1/25/18 12:11 PM AUTHOR’S NOTE arguably the most notorious crime in American history. How could it have happened? I also wanted to explore the process by which justice was done. The Christian tradition, of which I am a part, has justice at its center, a consequence of the belief that God will ultimately put all things right. We should take seriously the process by which our governments work to see justice accomplished, and this book— as well as subsequent books in this series— attempts to do just that. As a result of my legal experience, I knew when embarking on this quest what law enforcement agents on the scene in 1969 would have or should have been looking for, which made my discoveries of what they actually did all the more shocking. I knew what the lead prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi, was attempting to do with his various motions and strategies, and how successful he was or was not. (Long after the Manson case, I got to know Bugliosi when he asked for assistance in writing a book about the Supreme Court.) And my television crime reporting expe- rience was invaluable as I researched, wrote, and analyzed the defense’s case and the various alternative theories about the crime. Investigative journalist and true crime author Caitlin Rother brought thirty years of research and storytelling experience, as well as a breadth of knowledge about the criminal justice system, addiction, and men- tal illness. We agreed to approach the “known” sources— including the criminal case files— with fresh eyes. But we also set out with the goal of uncovering new details that would enhance readers’ overall under- standing of the case. I believe the book does just that, offering new and illuminating material that will not only surprise but possibly even aston- ish the reader. In the end, I’m not sure we will ever be able to answer definitively the question of why. But I do believe these pages bring us closer than ever before. Read on. x HuntingCharlesManson_1P.indd 10 1/25/18 12:11 PM PROLOGUE “Today is a good day.” grizzled old man with a long, bushy beard and a swastika tattoo on A his forehead sat waiting in his prison blues for a special visitor one Saturday in late December 2013. Charles Milles Manson probably received more mail than any other inmate in California, so he turned down or ignored many persistent invi- tations to correspond or visit with him here at Corcoran State Prison. But this particular visitor won him over somehow. Afton Elaine Burton was just seventeen when she started to write him. On this Saturday morning seven years later, seventy- nine- year- old Manson was more than three times her age. Still, they’d formed a bond. He’d always been good at drawing in young women, and it seemed his charms had endured. Fenced in with curls of spear- tipped barbed wire, Corcoran had been Manson’s home for the last thirty years of his most recent forty- five- year term. Surrounded by vast dusty miles of nothingness and the occasional field of cotton, hay, tomatoes, or wheat, Corcoran is California’s largest correctional facility. A second one down the road treats inmates for sub- stance abuse. Other than the local inmates and corrections employees, however, few people want to live in the middle of nowhere, where the most touted downtown eateries include McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Subway, and two pizza parlors. xi HuntingCharlesManson_1P.indd 11 1/25/18 12:11 PM PROLOGUE But Burton didn’t seem to mind. She had left her strict Baptist family back in Illinois to move here and had visited Manson regularly ever since. In turn, as he’d done many times for the underage girls and troubled women drawn to him over the years, he gave Burton a name in his own image: Star Manson. When Star arrived for their five- hour visit at Corcoran’s small Protective Housing Unit (PHU) that Saturday in 2013, the lanky young woman wore a short spring dress with ballet flats. Her dark brown hair was still growing out after she’d shaved it to show her support for Manson, just as his female codefendants had done during his first murder trial in 1970.

And at the end I can’t help thinking about beginnings. The city of Reno, Nevada, was founded in 1859 when TCharles Fuller built a log toll bridge across the Truckee River and charged prospectors to haul their Comstock silver across the narrow but swift-moving current. Two years later, Fuller sold the bridge to the ambitious Myron Lake. Lake, swift himself, added a grist mill, kiln, and livery stable to his Silver Queen Hotel and Eating House. Not a bashful man, he named the community Lake’s Crossing, had the name painted on Fuller’s bridge, bright blue as the sky. The 1860s were boom times in the Western Utah Territory: Americans still had the brackish taste of Sutter’s soil on their tongues, ten-year-old gold still glinting in their eyes. The curse of the Comstock Lode had not yet leaked from the silver vein, not seeped into the water table. The silver itself had not yet been stripped from the moun- tains; steaming water had not yet flooded the mineshafts. Henry T. P. Comstock—most opportune of the opportunists, snatcher of land, greatest claim jumper of all time—had not yet lost his love Adelaide, his first cousin, who drowned in Lake Tahoe.

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.

  • 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.
