Description
The innocence of the Summer of Love and the hippie counterculture movement came to an abrupt end in August 1969, when a string of brutal murders in the Los Angeles area rocked Hollywood, the country, and the world. The perpetrators? A strange hippie cult called "The Family", headed by a creepy, scrawny guy with an odd charisma by the name of Charles Manson.
This August, we're diving in to the explosive story of the Manson Family Murders with a multi-part series investigating the who, what, where, when, and why of one of the most infamous multiple murders ever perpetrated. In doing so, we'll explore how a cult is created, and how even the weirdest-seeming leaders can attract followers. In this first episode, we go into the younger years of Charles Manson, and see how a combination of nature and nurture turned him into the fame-obsessed monster that would eventually bring the 1960s to a brutal, violent end.
