Best Answer

The Family had it's beginnings in the Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco around 1967. When the 'Summer of Love' turned sour Charlie and a couple of girls headed for the Los Angeles area. They moved around quite a bit, stealing cars and eating out of dumpsters to survive, and adding more members as they went. When things didn't work out for Charlie like he had planned, (his music for starters) he just made a new plan. This included killing whomever he felt needed it or to initiate the race war Manson refered to as Helter Skelter wealthy white people had to die. That brings us to August 8th and 9th, 1969. The Tate-LaBianca murders were big news just as Manson had hoped. But Charlie didn't count on Vincent Bugliosi, District Attorney for L.A. county. Manson felt if he didn't actually do any killing he wouldn't be prosecuted. He was wrong. Eight counts of murder, eight counts of conspiracy to commit murder, and finally the death penalty. Sometimes the system does work.
