Charles Manson
"You made your children what they are.... These children that come at you with knives, they are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them. I just tried to help them stand up.... You can project it back at me, but I am only what lives inside each and every one of you. My father is your system.... I am only what you made me. I am a reflection of you.” Charles Manson was born on November 12, 1934, in Cincinnati, Ohio to a… Blah Blah Blah. This sounds exactly like every other paper I have read in order to write this report. What a waste. Charles Manson was born to a drunken whore prostitute, named Kathleen Maddox because birth control wasn’t as good in the 30’s as it is today. He was a mistake and made business slow for nine months of his mom’s life. Speaking of her life, it started out pretty good in most respects. Kathleen lived with her parents, grandparents, and two siblings. Her grandmother threw down on anything borderline promiscuous and said that God didn’t allow it. She was the Nazi in Kathleen’s life. This may not be that different from many of the homes in that day, but Kathleen could not handle being told no, no, no to any fun she attempted to have so she
After eighteen attempts at escaping from the school in a three year period and an incident just days before a parole hearing where Manson held a razor to a boys throat while he fondled the boy, Manson was finally sent to the National Training School for Boys in Washington D.C. (www.law.umkc.edu, 2004). The adjustment was a lot like a move from a State prison to a Federal Prison because there was a lot more structure and control in the National Boys School. Manson seemed to like the elevation in structure and control as he became much more cooperative and even learned to read. While at the school, Manson was tested extensively on everything from Music to I.Q. His tests were all average, with his I.Q. at 109, with the exception of his music test. Manson had an unusual ability with music. Dr. Block, who did the test, concluded that Manson had been shown very little compassion as a child and now he was showing it. Manson was also very small for his age. The combination of these two factors led Manson on a constant quest for domination over everyone and everything in his life. His armed robberies across the Midwest and his escape attempts as well as his control over the boys at the school were all prime examples of this need for domination. Winifred Chapman, the Tates’ housekeeper arrived at the house for work at 8 A.M. on August 9. The first thing she noticed when she arrived was what looked like a telephone wire hanging over the front gate at the end of the driveway. When she got in the kitchen, she found no dial tone. She walked into the living room, she saw blood everywhere and out on the lawn she saw the bodies of two of the five victims. There were three other bodies scattered throughout the house, but before Chapman could start counting, she ran out of the house and over to the neighbors, where she used the phone to call the police. ran away from home at the age of 16 and a few months later she was knocked up by some guy who got his moneys worth. Charles Manson was a bastard child and the truth was that his mother had no idea who the father was (Crime Library, 2004). After she became pregnant, she desperately wanted to fall in love with a man that would love and support her and her child, so she married a few times, and one of those men, William Manson, gave Charles a last name. This marriage only lasted a couple years and pretty soon there was a new man in Kathleen and Charles’s lives every couple of months. (charliemanson.com, 2004) When Charles was only five years old, his mother was arrested for armed robbery and sent to prison. During this time Charles was sent to one of his many foster homes. His mother eventually got out of prison and reclaimed her son for another nine years of abuse and negligence (Crime Library, 2004). When Charles was 14, he finally got sick of his mothers negligence and moved out of her shanty and into a one room apartment and paid the rent with odd jobs and petty theft. His mom eventually found her son and turned Charles in to the juvenile authorities, who in turn put him in a “Boy’s Town” in Omaha, Nebraska. After only three days in the Boys Town, he escaped and went on a fun little spree across the Midwest, robbing grocery and convenience stores along the way. He was finally caught in Peoria, Illinois, while attempting to rob yet another grocery store while armed. After this little escapade, Manson was sent to the Indiana School for Boys in Plainfield, Indiana, where he treated everyone with nothing but distrust and he tried to escape. (bdrum.com, 2004) After being released from the training school in 1954, at the age of twenty, a new chapter in Manson’s life began. He had been stealing things constantly for as long as he could remember. He had supported himself through most of his childhood with theft, so naturally, he was getting very good at it with twenty years of experience under his belt. When he left the school, Manson moved to West Virginia where he met a girl nam
