Charles Milles Manson was born on November 12, 1934, as an American criminal and musician who led what became known as the Manson Family, a quasi commune that arose in the California desert, in the late 1960s. In 1971 he was found guilty of conspiracy to commit the murders of seven people, actress Sharon tate and four other people at Tate's home, and the next day, a married couple, leno and rosemary la bianca, all carried out by members of the group at his instruction. He was convicted of the murders through the joint responsibility rule, which makes each member of a conspiracy guilty of crimes his fellow conspirators commit in furtherance of the conspiracy's objective. His followers also murdered several other people at other times and locations, and Manson was also convicted for two of these other murders of Gary Hinman and Donald "Shorty" Shea.
Manson believed in what he called Helter Skelter, a term he took from the song of the same name by the Beatles. Manson believed Helter Skelter to be an impending apocalyptic race war, which he described in his own version of the lyrics to the Beatles' song. He believed the murders would help precipitate that war. From the beginning of his notoriety, a pop culture arose around him in which he ultimately became an emblem of insanity, violence and the macabre. The term helter skelter was later used by Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi as the title of a book that he wrote about the Manson murders. He got famous because he had manipulated some people to kill others that were innocent for not doing anything.
It is bad to follow people because they can lead you to do bad things like kill innocent people that haven't even done anything. Follow people and you can cause bad things and even get caught and go to prison for lifetime or a really long time. sometimes you can do it to impress people but not do bad things like how Charles Manson did he manipulated people to do bad things for him and that caused him to go for prison for a long time and he didn't even kill anyone but he got caught for manipulating people to kill.
