Yearbook photos show Charles Mansion’s followers before they joined his killing cult
Published By admin with Comments 0
The Manson Family was a cult of around one hundred disaffected young people led by Charles Manson, who encouraged his followers to murder the rich and famous in Los Angeles in 1969.
The notorious group was convicted for nine murders after embarking on the killing spree that terrorized the California city over fifty years ago.
Manson’s followers, including Mary Brunner, Patricia Krenwinkel, and Bobby Beausoleil, stabbed, beat and shot young actress Sharon Tate – who was heavily pregnant – to death at her Hollywood Hills home on August 8, 1969.
They also killed her friends, celebrity hairstylist Jay Sebring, coffee heiress Abigail Folger, aspiring screenwriter Wojciech Frykowski, and teenager Steven Parent, who had been visiting an acquaintance at the estate’s guesthouse.
The following night, Manson and some of his followers struck again, this time, murdering wealthy grocer Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary, at their home.
They also killed musician Gary Hinman and Hollywood stuntman Donald ‘Shorty’ Shea.
However, once upon a time, Manson’s followers were ordinary teenagers, studying at high school just like everyone else.
Here, FEMAIL takes a look back at the yearbook photos of some of the Manson Family in their younger years – and uncovers what ended up happening to his dedicated followers.
