Above is Charles Manson, a convicted serial killer. In the late 1960's, Manson founded a hippie cult group known as "the Family" whom he manipulated into brutally killing others for him. On August 9, 1969, four of his followers murdered actress Sharon Tate, her unborn baby, and four others who were visiting her while he husband was away. The following night, Manson's followers brutally killed Leno and Rosemary LaBianca in their home.

Charles Manson was born in Cincinnati, Ohio his mother was merely 16 years of age. She had run away from home at the age of 15. Since his mother couldn't take care of him, Manson spent his youth at the homes of various relatives and when he was not there he was at special reform schools and boys homes. By the time he reached the age of 9 years old he had already begun to steal and take part in other various crimes.
