Was Charles Manson ever in Folsom prison?

I believe so, he had a long list of more or less itinerant ( traveling) crimes such as serial auto theft. this in no way links him to the song: ( Indiana wants me) by R. Dean Taylor.

Why were girls attracted to Charles Manson?

I think it is safe to say it wasn't his clothes or his meticulous grooming habits. But as with other cult leaders, Manson had a certain charisma that some found attractive. Over the years in prison, Manson has morphed into a sad old man, with nothing of importance to contribute. I doubt his younger self would barely recognize what he has become.

How many times was Charles Manson married?

Charles Manson was married 5 different times.

I can find evidence of only one marriage. In 1955 Manson marrried a waitress named Rosalie Willis. They had one son named Charles, Jr. They divorced in 1958 and Willis took Charles, Jr. and moved away.

I will have to eat my words now. On further research, I found a second marriage for Manson. In 1959 Manson met and married a prostitute named Leona 'Candy' Stevens. The marriage produced a son but lasted only long enough for Manson to get himself incarcerated again. Leona filed for divorce and retained custody of the child.

Did Charles Manson claim that the song Helter Skelter give him the call to commit murders?

Manson was obessed with the Beatles, especially the White album. He claimed that the members of the group were sending him messages pertaining to the apocolypse and the end of the world.

Does Charles Manson get paid when his likeness appears in movies or on tv?

He does not. With the passing of the 'Son of Sam' law, which prohibits criminals to benefit financially from their crimes, he can receive no money whatsoever. Although I do believe if he holds the copyrights on some of his music that is his to keep.

Is the reason Dennis Wilson refused to discuss Charles Manson is that his life was threatened by him?

Wilson would have had to be paralyzed from the neck up not to understand how dangerous Manson was. In fact, Wilson abandoned his expensive beachfront home in Malibu, rather than try to have Manson evicted. What began as a friendly gesture on Wilson's part, inviting Manson and his chums to stay at his home for a few days, ended months later with Wilson finding a new residence and considered himself lucky that all that was lost was a piece of real estate.

Long after Manson and family had vacated Wilson's Malibu home, Wilson was still keeping a very low profile and with good reason. The word got back to Wilson that Manson was angry at the Beach Boy due to record producer Terry Melcher's reluctance to sign Manson for a record deal. In true Manson style, he claimed he was going to kill Melcher and Wilson, claiming they renigged on the record deal. In fact, Wilson only promised Mason he would ask Melcher to listen to Manson, not offer him a recording contract. Wilson and Melcher fulfilled their end of the deal. In hindsight, both Wilson and Melcher were incredibly lucky to escape with their lives.

How much mail does Charles Manson receive?

Does Charles Manson get conjugal visits?

I don't think so. Prison privledges vary from state to state and from prison to prison. And I think the finally say comes from the prison warden. But Manson is in solitary confinement, mostly for his own safety, and as a rule these solitary prisoners have fewer perks.

But there are death row killers that have been allowed to have conjucal visits and some have even married while they wait to die. Serial killer Ted Bundy was allowed to marry and have conjucal visits and fathered at least one child. Night Stalker Richard Ramirez has also married while imprisoned. Kenneth Bianci, one half of the Hillside Stranglers (Bianci teamed with his cousin Angelo Bono torturing and killing women in Los Angeles), has married and I believe father a child.

In all the cases above these killers met their wives after being convicted of murder. As strange as it sounds, serial killers seem to attract fans. I find it surprising that women would become involved with men that killed other women.

Did Charles Manson ever live in winton ca?

As far as I can tell Manson had no connection to Winton, CA. Whether he ever passed through no one knows. In the early 1970s Winton had the highest crime rate for a city it's size in the country. By the time it was declared the most dangerous city, Manson was already in jail and had been for quite a while. So I think that rules him out.

Was Squeaky Frome part of the Manson family?

She was. If fact she was one of the first members, meeting Manson in San Francisco in 1968. They migrated south, adding new members as they found them. Frome was also the oldest of the female family members, and probably had the most in higher education. (college)

If Frome wasn't famous enough for being a member of Manson's family, she was imprisoned after trying to assissinate President Ford. She seemed rather lost after Manson's arrest. As the oldest she more or less took over the running of the family, or what was left of it, and tried to hold it together until (what they thought anyway) would be the day when Manson would be released.

How has Charles Manson influenced history?

Manson was a contributing factor in the death of America's innocence. The Summer of Love was just an illusion and 'make love, not war' was just a way to spread VD. We never really recovered entirely from the Tate-LaBianca murders. We didn't feel the same about our country or ourselves. Manson was a precursor to Bundy, Gacy, Dahmer, BTK, Green River Killer Ridgeway and his madness somehow tainted our society.

We are smarter now. We have criminal profiling and DNA. But we can barely stay one step behind this epidemic of remorseless killers that constantly stalk the innocent and unaware. Modern technology is great but most of us would love to go back to a simpler time before Charles Manson.
