The Manson Family's slaying of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and her friends in August 1969 shocked the nation, but just six months later there was another family murder with eerie similarities.
In the aftermath of the brutal slaughter of his pregnant wife, Sharon Tate, Roman Polanski was convinced the killer was someone he knew and began to suspect his celebrity friends of the heinous slayings.
“The one thing I noticed that night is I have never seen him that happy in my life,” a Manson family friend said of the young groom’s wedding reception.
Charles Manson's early years were shaped by his teen mother's arrest for robbery and a strict uncle who once forced him to go to elementary school in a dress.
Charles Manson's one-time girlfriend Stephanie Schram said she was enthralled by the charismatic cult leader, who she met outside a gas station bathroom.
