SYNOPSIS: No matter how much you think you know about the Manson case, this incredible book will shock you. It began August 9 and 10, 1969 when seven people were shot, stabbed and bludgeoned to death in Los Angeles. It ended when a nation watched in fascinated horror as the killers were tried and convicted. But the real questions went unanswered. How did Manson make his "family" kill for him? How could these young men and women kill again and again without human feelings of any kind. Did the murders go on even after Manson was in jail? Now, for the first time, we have the answers. - and - The story you are about to read will scare the hell out of you. 9:05 a.m., August 9. Three LAPD officers arrive at the Sharon Tate residence in response to a Code 2. They find the first bloody victim in a white Rambler parked in the driveway. Victims two and three--male, Caucasian, probably in his thirties; female, Caucasian, probably in her twenties--are on the lawn. The officers enter the house. In the living room is a long couch. Draped over the back is an American flag. In front of the fireplace is a scene so savage that it will sicken you--a scene that horrifies even the most case-hardened detectives. November 18, 1969. Deputy district attorney Vincent Bugliosi is assigned the Tate case and the related homicides of supermarket owner Leno LaBianca and his wife Rosemary. For months, Bugliosi collects and sifts through the grisly evidence, listens to the chilling testimony of murderers and accomplices. Slowly, he puts the puzzle pieces together--and emerges with a complete and horrifying picture of the man who ordered the killings, the girls and young men who carried them out, the motive for the seemingly incomprehensible crimes. Now Vincent Bugliosi tells the whole story--including the never-before-revealed "retaliation" slayings--of the most baffling mass murder case in the annals of American crime. Vincent Bugliosi received his undergraduate degree at the University of Miami (which he attended on a tennis scholarship) and his law degree from UCLA, where he was president of his class. At the time of the Manson case he was deputy district attorney, Los Angeles, and a professor of criminal law at the Beverly School of Law in Los Angeles. He is currently in private practice. Curt Gentry is a highly successful writer of nonfiction. Two of his most recent books are The Last Days of the Late, Great State of California and Frame-Up, a brilliant recreation of the famous Mooney-Billings murder case.
