Charles Manson at age 74....

I just found this picture of Charles Manson on the web. A former resident of Price Hill, Manson will be in prison for the rest of his life. It's interesting to me that if what he was sentenced for happened today he wouldn't serve a day for conspiracy. With lawyers being what they are he would have gotten probation and a fine. Just like O.J. Simpson. I remember seeing the movie "Helter Skelter" as a kid and the performance of Steve Railsback as Manson scared the hell out of me. In the annals of true crime he turns out to be a minor player. He can't hold a flame to the blood shed by the Bush Administration.
