About this listen
The Manson Family Murders were a series of gruesome killings orchestrated by Charles Manson and his followers, known as the "Manson Family," in the late 1960s in California, USA. The most notorious of these murders occurred in August 1969, when Manson instructed his followers to brutally murder actress Sharon Tate and several others at her home in Los Angeles. The following night, they killed Leno and Rosemary LaBianca at their residence. Manson and his followers believed that these murders would incite a race war, which they called "Helter Skelter," based on their interpretation of the Beatles song. The Manson Family Murders shocked the nation and led to Manson and several of his followers being convicted of multiple counts of murder. The case remains one of the most infamous and chilling examples of cult-related violence in modern history.
