Cielodrive.com In the summer of '69, the exclusive Beverly Hills cul-de-sac of Cielo Drive, as well as our nation, were forever changed when actress Sharon Tate was brutally murdered, one more victim of a horrific Los Angeles-wide killing spree committed by the remorseless Manson clan. The ensuing media frenzy, Hollywood terror alert, and death penalty convictions defined one of the most bizarre high-profile crimes of the 20th century. Thirty-five years later, with their death sentences commuted, the Manson family killers have a shot at parole, much to the outrage of the victims' families. This site serves as an extensive case file, detailing items that time and perhaps a jaded populace have forgotten. Victims' bios, audio files, and countless photos illustrate exactly why the death penalty was the original penalty. While the topic may cause discomfort, it's chilling food for thought. (in Crime) |
