He saw them return with blood.

1194
00:57:19,561 --> 00:57:22,147
Susan Atkins comes home to you
with bloody hands.

1195
00:57:22,230 --> 00:57:23,231
Yes.

1196
00:57:23,315 --> 00:57:24,942
She says:
"Charlie, look what I did for you."

1197
00:57:25,025 --> 00:57:27,527
-Yeah. "So I gave you the world."
-I gave you the...

1198
00:57:27,611 --> 00:57:29,738
"I myself killed
and I gave you the world."

1199
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:31,490
And what was your reaction?

1200
00:57:31,573 --> 00:57:33,408
I said, "Stupid motherfucker,
I already had the world.

1201
00:57:33,492 --> 00:57:35,202
“You just put me back in jail.”

1202
00:57:35,285 --> 00:57:39,790
[Schreck] So it was a disaster that
They would have killed a minor celebrity.

1203
00:57:39,873 --> 00:57:43,126
And he is terrified
because he is on parole

1204
00:57:43,210 --> 00:57:46,546
thinking: "These beginners
They drag me back to prison."

1205
00:57:46,630 --> 00:57:48,590
Because he knew this would fall on him.

1206
00:57:49,383 --> 00:57:52,219
And he told me never
He had been so terrified in his life.

1207
00:57:52,302 --> 00:57:54,388
despite all things
what he had gone through.

1208
00:57:54,888 --> 00:57:56,974
Now, the next night, the LaBiancas,

1209
00:57:57,057 --> 00:57:59,393
went to the LaBianca house

1210
00:57:59,476 --> 00:58:02,437
and took money from Leno LaBianca,
a large amount of money.

1211
00:58:02,521 --> 00:58:03,647
He admitted that.

1212
00:58:04,731 --> 00:58:06,692
[presenter] One day later,
nine kilometers away,

1213
00:58:06,775 --> 00:58:09,319
there was another homicide
in the same brutal way.

1214
00:58:09,987 --> 00:58:12,322
[host 2] Leno LaBianca,
a supermarket owner,

1215
00:58:12,406 --> 00:58:15,033
and his wife have been
both stabbed to death,

1216
00:58:15,117 --> 00:58:16,618
repeated stab wounds.

1217
00:58:16,702 --> 00:58:20,664
In his body,
the word "war" carved on the chest.

1218
00:58:20,747 --> 00:58:23,125
Then, with blood,
the murderer had scribbled

1219
00:58:23,208 --> 00:58:25,460
the phrase "death to pigs."

1220
00:58:25,919 --> 00:58:27,295
[Schreck] Uh...

1221
00:58:27,379 --> 00:58:30,841
He was guilty of having
entered the LaBianca house

1222
00:58:30,924 --> 00:58:32,551
and steal them,

1223
00:58:32,634 --> 00:58:35,470
what makes you guilty,
technically.

1224
00:58:36,138 --> 00:58:37,472
He didn't kill them.

1225
00:58:37,556 --> 00:58:39,391
Do you think that happened?
What went to the crime scene?

1226
00:58:39,474 --> 00:58:41,351
I don't believe a word of anything.

1227
00:58:41,435 --> 00:58:44,021
If you're going to take the implication

1228
00:58:44,104 --> 00:58:47,524
that Charlie was involved,
yes, agree.

1229
00:58:47,607 --> 00:58:51,570
But every person who was
in Charlie's cult at the beginning,

1230
00:58:51,653 --> 00:58:53,655
-the... the first...
-It was not a sect.

1231
00:58:53,739 --> 00:58:58,285
Each person was arrested minimum
four times before meeting Charlie.

1232
00:58:58,368 --> 00:58:59,578
Yes, they were criminals.

1233
00:58:59,661 --> 00:59:01,329
And the four were released.

1234
00:59:01,413 --> 00:59:04,332
I'm telling you, this was a series
of sordid murders

1235
00:59:04,416 --> 00:59:07,836
of gangs involving
motorcyclists and drug dealers.

1236
00:59:07,919 --> 00:59:10,672
With all respect,
I think the people who made this

1237
00:59:10,756 --> 00:59:14,051
They are Manson's people
of the entertainment industry.

1238
00:59:14,134 --> 00:59:16,511
They don't really know everything...

1239
00:59:16,595 --> 00:59:19,473
So do you question
everything your father said?

1240
00:59:20,182 --> 00:59:21,183
Yes.

1241
00:59:21,266 --> 00:59:22,517
This is where we have to differ.

1242
00:59:22,601 --> 00:59:24,936
If you doubt that your father
have told the truth

1243
00:59:25,020 --> 00:59:27,522
About these things, well, he did.

1244
00:59:27,606 --> 00:59:30,734
And I talked to him for years,
testing him, interrogating him.

1245
00:59:30,817 --> 00:59:36,198
In my opinion,
I think it's still necessary, huh...

1246
00:59:36,281 --> 00:59:38,450
publish things, more information.

1247
00:59:38,533 --> 00:59:40,368
And, uh, you know...

1248
00:59:40,452 --> 00:59:42,662
I don't doubt that things are being hidden.

1249
00:59:42,746 --> 00:59:44,956
No, the fact that
they had to get to

1250

and he said:

1251
00:59:48,043 --> 00:59:49,503

[Schreck] I understand that.

He has inherited some evil.

[Melnick] Los Angeles had had

1298

[Bugliosi] Manson told his

and what happened on these two nights
You don't even see it in a horror movie.

Do you believe in the narrative

No.

1302
01:01:58,465 --> 01:02:01,801
Many people have said that
Manson spoke of a race war,

01:02:01,885 --> 01:02:03,011
that this was imminent.

But aside from Linda Kasabian,

he had to be granted full immunity.

They are acting outside the trial.
