"PIG" was the word smeared in blood on the door at 10050 Cielo Dr. Beyond the door lay the bodies of Sharon Tate, Abigail Folger, Voytek Frykowski and Jay Sebring all with multiple stab wounds and bullet holes. A couple of them had electrical cords around the necks and were hanged from the rafters of the Tate residence, the rest of the house had blood on the ceiling, blood on the walls, and blood on the floor. The following night at 3301 Waverly Dr. came the discovery of more bodies, more mutilation and more blood. Along with these were more blood written messages this time "WAR" was carved into the stomach of Leno LeBianca, on the living room wall was "DEATH TO PIGS," on another wall in the living room was the single word "RISE." And also was the words "HEALTHER SKELTER" ( incorrect spelling of the Beatles" song "Helter Skelter" ) on the refrigerator door. A few weeks prior to these slayings was the murder of Gary Hinman killed in the same fashion as the others and the message written in his blood read "POLITICAL PIGGIES." These brutal murders brought about an end to the "Summer of Love" that was going on in San Francisco.

             The man responsible of these murders was born "no name" Maddox on November 12, 1934 in Cincinnati, OH to a 16-year old prostitute. He finally received his name of Charles Milles Manson after his mother took one of her many lovers to court and won the child support sum of five dollars a month support for Manson. His father never came in to contact with Charles. Charles lived with his mom until he was five years old and his mother was sent to jail on a charge of strong armed robbery. Charles packed and moved in with his very religious aunt and an uncle who dressed Charles in a dress for his first day of school in order for him to act like a man instead of the sissy that he was, in his uncle"s words.
