Nancy Davis

The woman below we think is an artist named Nancy Davis who tried to capitalize on the trial publicity.

She is briefly mentioned in Sanders book "The Family" on page 339 (I think chapter 80 or 81). Anybody know anything more about her? Click the link for the pic's.

  5. That would make her 52-53 if she was diagnosed at age 33 in 1991. That would put her at 12 in 1970. I vote nay, but that lady is smokin' nonetheless.

  6. Her name was nancy jo davis and was a student of morlock the warlock. She also was a sketch artist for some underground papers who attended the trial. At one point she interrupted the trial to give Judge Older a packet of poems. During the interruption she said the following,
    "I've come to defend
    my brother on Christ-
    ian principles. I
    want to kill the law
    with the Bible."
    She was found in contempt and spent three days in jail. When she was released she said,
    "I have Manson coming
    out of my head...I
    have learned a lot
    from Charlie's philo-
    sphy. I have also
    learned from, from
    all the great lead-
    ers."
    The book I am writing is full of intersting characters like her.

  8. There is an artist Nancy J Davis who lives in New Mexico, likes to travel the CA coast in her RV, does portraits among other things: nancyjdavisart.com. No good photo of her.

  9. @Beauders - sorry to correct you, but it was Juli Shapiro who was a protege of Morlock, not Davis. And it was Shapiro that was given the jail time. Shapiro was also suspected of being Ronald Hughes one time girlfriend.

  10. according to bravin, gorightly and myself juli shapiro was an apprentice witch - working with morlock the worlock, who stood up at fromme's trial in 1975,and said,
    "i have proof that
    key prosecution wit-
    nesses (ford, secret
    service agents, fbi,
    local police, citizen
    witnesses)were coerced
    bribed and threatened."
    i believe there was two witches connected to morlock the worlick interested in the manson case. i stand behind my research that nancy jo davis was at the manson trial and what she said and her jail sentence as well as the juli shapiro information above.

  12. Nancy Jo Davis is my mother. She was the back up court artist for the Manson trial. She has been a professional artist her entire life , working primarily in the French Quarter, New Orleans but also Taos, LA, NY, etc. She was about 34 in the photos at the time of the Manson trial. She visited him in prison at least once when he was sent north, and he corresponded with her frequently for awhile.

    She is now retired and sometimes we still talk about Charlie and that crazy period in her life.
