The Untold Truth Of Charles Manson

The world has held a strange fascination with Charles Manson ever since the inner workings of his "family" went public after a string of grisly murders, all of which were done not by him but at his behest. Here is the untold truth.

It's human nature to want to know why something happened, especially when it's something this horrible. For years, people have looked for explanations in the early life of the man whose birth certificate listed him as "No Name Maddox," son of a 16-year-old girl who refused to name the father. According to The Los Angeles Times, the story told of Charles Manson's mother, Kathleen, was that she would leave him with relatives for weeks at a time and was a heavy drinker and robber who spent five years in state prison. When she was released, she and Manson traveled the country with a series of men he called his "uncles," until he ended up in a string of reform schools where he claimed to have suffered unthinkable abuse.

That's the accepted story, but when Jeff Guinn was given access to family documents and members for his book, Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson, he says he found something else. He says the stories, including Manson's tale about his mother's attempts to sell him for a pitcher of beer, were largely false. Guinn says Manson's mother loved him unconditionally and tried to keep him in school.
