Seldom Seen Charlene

 I ran across this picture of Charlene Cafritz in a newspaper archive. I had to fiddle with the brightness to bring her face out so the rest of the image is washed out. I don't think we have seen any pictures of Charlene during the Manson years. She looks healthy in this picture.

  1. Awesome find, Deb. This is the first time I have seen a photo of Charlene.

  2. There are a tiny handful of other photos of Charlene Cafritz (maiden name: Lawley) online, but certainly not many. Almost makes one think the plotters behind the whole "Manson Event" definitely wanted to erase her from the story and went to great lengths to conceal as much as they could about her.
