Part Eight: 'I am what you have made of me.'

Mr. and Mrs. America - you are wrong.
I am not the King of the Jews nor am I a hippie cult leader.
I am what you have made of me and the mad dog devil killer fiend leper is a reflection of your society...
Whatever the outcome of this madness...you can know this: In my mind's eye my thoughts light fires in your cities.
Statement issued by Charles Manson

During sentencing, Manson’s 'family' lie about their past lives and Manson’s influence on them, still hoping to clear his name. Despite a variety of defence witnesses being called to the stand, Manson is given the death penalty, which he follows up by making death threats to all those who prosecute him.

The concluding final chapter in the Manson murders trial.

About the author

Vincent Bugliosi

VINCENT T. BUGLIOSI received his law degree in 1964 from UCLA law school, where he was president of his graduating class. In his eight-year career as a prosecutor for the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office, he tried close to 1,000 felony and misdemeanour court and jury trials. Of 106 felony trials, he lost but one case. His most famous trail was, of course, the Manson case, which became the basis of his best-selling book Helter Shelter. But even before the Manson case, in his television series “The D.A.,” actor Robert Conrad patterned his starring role after Bugliosi. His last nonfiction book, Till Death Do Us Part¸ was also a best seller. He died in June 2015 in Los Angeles.
