Anybody remember what happened that day?
If you answered The Manson Family killed actress Sharon Tate and four other people, you would be correct.
Fifty years ago.
I don’t remember all the details. Chances are most people who know them would like to forget them.
And we are coming up on the fiftieth anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing , Woodstock, the release of The Beatles’ Abbey Road album, all kinds of culturally important stuff.
And The Manson Family is there, in the mix.
I dunno. I guess the Epstein Case has touched a memory of another sensational and horrific story.
I’m not “dot-connecting”. At least not yet.
Roman Polanski, husband of Sharon Tate, was convicted of child rape much later after the murders. And the sexual underworld of Hollywood is about to come under much closer scrutiny.
It is going to get very ugly and scary folks.
A small tidbit of info I find interesting, even if no one else does. LOL I met a guy in the Fellowship who spent many years serving time with Charlie Manson. We hung out a few times until I got to know him enough to realize he was still a bad dude. Seemed they were friends? Oh dear… Does that put me one separation from Manson?
Yes it does.
FFS?! Seriously? Not someone cool that I’d want to be one degree from. Noooo…. π I’m also 3rd cousins on my dad’s side to the Eberly Brothers. π Much rather have that connection.
Oh yeah. For sure.
