I don't need to drink his kool-aid,
no matter how sweet he makes it
but I appreciate your remote listening skills,
determining in your statement, what I listen to and what I don't,
it's understandable being so enamored with Manson words,
negating the status he has achieved,
while choosing not to acknowledge those I listed
or discernment of the facts,
Although the evidence at the trial shows that Charles Manson was the
leader of the conspiracy to commit these murders,
there is no evidence that he actually personally killed any of the seven victims in this case.
However, the
joint responsibility rule of conspiracy makes him guilty of all seven murders.
Because the murders were not only terribly brutal and savage (169 stab wounds for both nights of murder,
seven gunshot wounds), but appeared to be so random and with no discernible or conventional motive like robbery or
burglary, they induced a lot of fear throughout Los Angeles, particularly in Beverly Hills and Bel Air.
As to the significance of the murders,
at a minimum they were a reaffirmation of the verity that
whenever people turn over their minds to a dictatorial figure,
the potential for this kind of madness exists.
