I have to say though, that while I'm not in agreement with various points made in it, "Goodbye Helter skelter" is also a <br />brilliantly written counterweight and I think both books should sit side by side on any bookshelf that seeks to be worthy of the name !<br /><br /><br />"this case proves that reality can be stranger than fiction!"<br /><br /><br />Even when I was a kid, things happened in my life that taught me this !<br /><br /><br /> CarolMR said...<br /> "Legally, he didn't have to present ANY motive."<br /><br /><br />This is true. That said, Charles Manson may not have been convicted without the intro of some motives. And he did say in his final summation that HS was a motive that belonged to Manson alone. Aside from this though, each of his co~defendants back in 1969, when separate from Manson and his influence, told various people not connected with the Family {psychiatrists, lawyers, cellmates....} that Charlie was behind the killings.<br /><br /><br />"And he didn't invent or lie about Helter Skelter"<br /><br /><br />He certainly did not. If it's a lie, blame the late Susan Atkins. She laid it on thickly with a trowel {witness what she told her attorney, Richard Caballero about why she wrote 'pig' on the Cielo door, for example} then during the trial and in her two subsequent books, said it wasn't ever the motive.<br />If it was an invention, blame Leslie Van Houten, Danny DeCarlo, Susan Atkins, Brooks Poston, Paul Watkins, Paul Crockett, Al Springer, Pat Krenwinkle, Ronnie Howard and Virginia Graham, all of whom in cash or in kind had expostulated it before the end of 1969, some before VB was even on the case. <br /><br /><br />"HS was practically handed to him on a silver platter"<br /><br /><br />He would've had to have been a blind man to have missed it. It's like Horatio Caine used to say to his team in CSI Miami ¬> "follow the evidence."<br />Reading police reports and police interviews from October to December '69, it is staggering the number of times Helter skelter came up. The interesting thing is that the police were rarely interested in pursuing it when it did come up. <br /><br /><br />"Bugliosi would have been derelict in his prosecutorial duties if he hadn't pursued the HS theory"<br /><br /><br />Couldn't agree more. Even if it eventually led up a blind alley, he was duty bound to look into it. Freeing Bobby Beausoleil {I've long found it intriguing that that means "Beautiful sun" !} as a motive never showed up until the trial was well under way and the defendants had already been found guilty. It was during the penalty bit where they try to determine whether the recently convicted get life or death that it first appeared. Charlie had alluded to it when he testified and interestingly, he doesn't complete the thought he begins that talks of Beausoleil {he calls him Robert} being arrested for something he didn't do. Which he knew Beausoleil had.<br />So much for the man that never lies.<br />And the "free Bobby" motive was originally brought into the public sphere by Catherine Share who cast it as a Linda Kasabian plan because Linda was supposedly in love with Bobby. Little wonder it wasn't taken seriously.<br />Part of the "free Bobby" thing was Susan Atkins admitting she killed Gary Hinman.....If, as she said, Bobby was taken to jail for something he hadn't done, why not tell the police that, instead of what she did actually tell them ?<br />Little wonder it wasn't taken seriously.<br /><br /><br /><br />"And even he told the jury that HS was not the only motive"<br /><br /><br />He told them that. It's on the record. It's in his book. It's us with all the information to hand that forget it from time to time.grimtravellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00025774296829848608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8171370990642927748.post-36250548911269128792015-06-11T11:38:03.968-04:002015-06-11T11:38:03.968-04:00Totally agree Carol.

And he didn't invent or lie about Helter Skelter. HS was practically handed to him on a silver platter. Bugliosi would have been derelict in his prosecutorial duties if he hadn't pursued the HS theory.
