00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:27.960
The murders that ended the nineteen sixties. August ninth, nineteen

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:32.719
sixty nine, Los Angeles, California, ten thoy fifty Colo Drive,
6
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.600
Benedict Canyon, secluded property at the end of a winding

00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:40.520
driveway home to film director Roman Polanski and his wife,
8
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:45.280
actress Sharon Tate. Sharon was twenty six years old, eight

and a half months pregnant, due in two weeks. Roman
10
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:52.079
was in London working on a film. Sharon stayed home
11
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:56.200
with friends, safe in one of LA's most exclusive neighborhoods.
12
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:00.840
Twelve thirty am, four people arrived at the property. Charles

twenty one, Linda Kasabian twenty They carried knives, a gun, rope.
15
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.239
Orders from their leader, Charles Manson, go to that house
16
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.280
and kill everyone inside. They cut the phone lines, climbed
17
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:20.840
the fence, approached the house, saw eighteen year old Stephn
18
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:23.920
parent leaving in his car, shot him four times through
19
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:27.959
the window. First victim dead in seconds. Then they entered
20
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:32.120
the house found four people inside. Sharon Tate, j Sebring
21
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.760
thirty five, her ex boyfriend and celebrity hairstylist, Abigail Folger
22
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:42.239
twenty five, coffee heiress Voichek Freikowski thirty two, Abigail's boyfriend
23
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:46.799
and aspiring filmmaker. What happened next was butchery. Tex Watson
24
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:50.480
shot Jay Sebring, stabbed him seven times, kicked him in
25
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:54.120
the face until his nose broke. Voichek woke to the attack,
26
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:58.400
tried to fight back, was beaten, stabbed fifty one times,
27
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:02.599
shot twice. Abigail tried to run, made it to the lawn,
28
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.079
stabbed twenty eight times. Sharon Tate begged for her baby's life.
29
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.520
Please let me have my baby. Take me with you
30
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:13.360
and let me have my baby. I just want to
31
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:19.120
have my baby. Susan Atkins held Sharon down, stabbed her
32
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:24.000
sixteen times. Sharon died, clutching her pregnant belly. Her baby
33
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:26.879
died with her. The killers used Sharon's blood to write
34
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.879
pig on the front door, then left, drove back to
35
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:34.759
spawn Ranch. Told Charles Manson what they'd done. He said,
36
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:39.680
good tomorrow night. They do it again. August tenth, nineteen
37
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:43.280
sixty nine. Manson joined his followers. This time wanted to
38
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:45.840
show them how it's done. They drove to three three
39
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.400
zero one Waverley Drive, home of Leno and Rosemary la Bianca,
40
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:55.879
wealthy couple, strangers to Manson, random targets. Manson and Tex
41
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.240
entered the house, tied up Leno and Rosemary. Manson left,
42
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:03.560
told his followers to finish it, make it look witchy.
43
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:08.879
Leslie Van Houghton nineteen and Patricia Crenwinkle joined text. They
44
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:13.400
stabbed Leno forty one times, carved war into his abdomen.
45
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:17.479
Rosemary stabbed forty one times, used their blood to write
46
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:23.639
messages on the walls. Death to Pigs, Rise, Helter Skelter,
47
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.919
Manson's misspelling of Helter Skelter. Seven people murdered in two nights,
48
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:33.759
five at the Tate House, two at the Labyankas, all
49
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:38.560
because Charles Manson wanted to start a race war. I'm reed, Carter,
50
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:43.599
this is celebrity trials today. The Manson family murders and
51
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:51.599
the Knight Hollywood's Golden Age ended in blood. Charles Mills
52
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:56.199
Manson born November twelfth, nineteen thirty four, in Cincinnati, Ohio.
53
00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:02.599
Mother Kathleen Maddox, was sixteen alcoholic prostitute told people Charles's
54
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:06.439
father was Colonel Scott, likely a lie. She didn't know
55
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:10.159
who the father was. Kathleen named him no name Maddox
56
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.919
at birth, later gave him the name Charles Mills Maddox
57
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.600
when she married William Manson. Charles took that last name.
58
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:24.279
It stuck. Charles's childhood was chaos. Kathleen abandoned him repeatedly,
59
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.959
left him with relatives, with strangers, with anyone who'd take him.
60
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:31.639
When he was five, Kathleen tried to sell him for
61
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:35.279
a pitcher of beer. The bartender said no. She abandoned
62
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:38.800
him at the bar. Family members eventually found him. By
63
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:42.600
age nine, Charles was in juvenile detention for burglary. Spent
64
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:48.079
his entire childhood in and out of institutions, boys schools, reformatories,
65
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:52.839
youth centers. He was beaten, sexually abused, and hardened by
66
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:57.560
the system. By age thirteen, he'd committed his first armed robbery.
67
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:04.120
Adult life wasn't better. More prison, more crimes, theft, check fraud,
68
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.959
pimping by nineteen sixty seven. Charles had spent more than
69
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.319
half his life incarcerated. He was thirty two years old,
70
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:16.360
about to be released from Terminal Island Federal Prison. Charles
71
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:19.759
didn't want to leave, told prison officials he couldn't survive
72
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.399
on the outside, begged to stay. They released him anyway.
73
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:29.319
March twenty first, nineteen sixty seven, Charles Manson walked out
74
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:34.160
of prison into San Francisco. Freeman, nowhere to go, no
75
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:38.879
skills except manipulation. He ended up in hate Ashbury, height
76
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:43.279
of the hippie movement, Summer of love, young people rejecting society,
77
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:48.560
experimenting with drugs, looking for meaning, looking for belonging, perfect
78
00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:52.959
hunting ground for a predator like Charles Manson. Charles had charisma.
79
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.120
Prison taught him how to read people, how to tell
80
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.959
them what they wanted to hear. He'd studied Dale Carnegie books, scientology,
81
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:05.959
the Bible, psychology, built a toolkit for manipulation. He also
82
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:09.519
played guitar, wrote songs. Wanted to be a rock star
83
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.959
like the Beatles, saw himself as an artist, a prophet,
84
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:17.560
a revolutionary. All he needed were followers. He found them easily,
85
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:23.240
young women, mostly runaways. Abuse survivors, girls searching for father figures.
86
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:28.360
Charles became exactly what they needed. Told them they were beautiful, special,
87
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.560
that society had failed them, that he understood them, that
88
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:38.680
with him they could build something pure. Mary Brunner twenty three, librarian,
89
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:42.519
became his first follower. They lived together in San Francisco.
90
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.519
She worshiped him. Within months, Charles had attracted more girls,
91
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:54.600
Lynette Squeaky from eighteen, Patricia Crenwinkle nineteen, Susan Atkins nineteen.
92
00:06:55.360 --> 00:07:00.519
Charles preached free love, no possessions, no rules, no judgment,
93
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:06.759
communal living, shared everything, food, drugs, bodies. The girls had
94
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:10.319
sex with Charles, with each other, with men. Charles told
95
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:13.680
them to have sex with all in the name of freedom,
96
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:18.800
of breaking down ego, of becoming one unified family. That's
97
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.399
what he called them, the family. Charles also preached apocalypse,
98
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:26.600
said a race war was coming. Black people would rise
99
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.720
up and kill white people. Called it helter Skelter, borrowed
100
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:34.199
from the Beatles song. Charles was obsessed with the Beatles,
101
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:38.360
believe their White Album contained hidden messages for him. Believed
102
00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:41.040
the Beatles were speaking directly to him through their music.
103
00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:46.600
He decoded the songs Blackbird was about black people rising up.
104
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:51.120
Piggy's was about wealthy white people who deserved to die.
105
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:55.240
Helter Skelter was the race war itself. Charles said the
106
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:58.240
Beatles were prophets, and he was the fifth Beatle, the
107
00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:03.240
one who'd start Helter Skelter. The family grew by nineteen
108
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.839
sixty eight, about twenty five members, men and women, living nomadically,
109
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:12.720
traveling in a school bus, sleeping in fields, taking drugs,
110
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.959
following Charles wherever he led. Charles tried to make it
111
00:08:17.000 --> 00:08:20.920
in music. Met Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys. Dennis
112
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.079
let the family stay at his mansion for a while,
113
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:28.279
introduced Charles to record producer Terry Melcher. Charles recorded songs
114
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.319
at a studio, tried to get a record deal. Terry
115
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:34.600
Melcher listened to Charles's music, decided not to sign him.
116
00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:40.679
Too weird, too rough, not commercial. Charles was furious, felt rejected, betrayed.
117
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.960
Terry had been living at ten thousand, fifty Colo Drive
118
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:47.399
before moving out earlier in nineteen sixty nine. Charles knew
119
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:50.559
the address, knew the house when he decided to start
120
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:53.879
Helter Skelter. That's where he sent his followers. He didn't
121
00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:56.840
know Terry had moved, didn't know Sharon Tate and Roman
122
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:01.120
Polanski now live there, didn't care. The rejection was enough.
123
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:05.519
Someone at that house would pay. Late nineteen sixty eight,
124
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:09.840
the family settled at Spawn Ranch, old Western movies set
125
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:13.600
in the Santa Susanna Mountains outside Los Angeles, owned by
126
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.919
eighty year old George Spahn, nearly blind, lonely, Squeaky from
127
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.440
became his caretaker and lover. In exchange, George let the
128
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:25.519
family live at the ranch for free. At Spawn Ranch,
129
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:31.840
Charles's control intensified. More drugs, more manipulation, more apocalyptic preaching.
130
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:37.039
Helter Skelter was coming. They needed to prepare, stockpile weapons,
131
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:40.720
learned to kill, be ready to survive the race War.
132
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:44.000
But the race War wasn't happening fast enough. Black people
133
00:09:44.039 --> 00:09:47.919
weren't rising up, so Charles decided to help. He'd commit murders,
134
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:51.080
make them look like black militants. Did it, pin the
135
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:55.399
crimes on black revolutionaries, trigger the race war himself. He
136
00:09:55.480 --> 00:10:00.120
picked followers he could control. Tex Watson devoted to Charles,
137
00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:05.200
would do anything he said. Susan Atkins called herself Sadie
138
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:11.720
may Glutz, completely brainwashed. Patricia Crenwinkle, desperate for Charles's approval.
139
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.320
Linda Kasabian, newest member, still under his spell. August eighth,
140
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:21.200
nineteen sixty nine. Charles gave them orders. Take knives, take
141
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.440
a gun, go to the house at ten thousand and
142
00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:29.320
fifty Colo drive, kill everyone inside, make it witchy, bloody, shocking,
143
00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:34.080
leave clues pointing to black militants. Start helter skelter. They obeyed,
144
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:38.639
left Spawn Ranch around eleven pm, drove to Benedict Canyon,
145
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:42.759
parked down the hill, walked to ten thousand fifty Colo drive,
146
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:46.759
prepared to commit murder for Charles Manson. Make it make sense.
147
00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:51.320
A failed musician convinces young people he's a prophet, preaches
148
00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:55.000
about race war based on Beatles lyrics, orders followers to
149
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:59.200
murder strangers, all because a record producer rejected him. Some
150
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:10.559
people are just evil. Charles Manson was one of them.
151
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:15.279
Ten thy fifty Clow Drive, Benedict Canyon secluded a state
152
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:18.240
at the end of a long winding driveway, French country
153
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:23.000
style house, pool, guesthouse, beautiful property in one of LA's
154
00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:29.039
wealthiest neighborhoods. August eighth, nineteen sixty nine, Sharon Tate was
155
00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:34.519
home twenty six years old actress married to director Roman Polanski,
156
