Saw this on the News early this morning.

Sad story all together.

It was interesting that she was the one that kept stabbing Sharon Tate over and over. It may have had some root in the fact she had a baby from incest when she was young and that baby disappeared. She leaves us with a bit of a mystery.

I do not envy her day today. Sometimes death is scarier than anything we can imagine.

Ex Manson family member passes away.

I first read that as "Ex-MORMON follower . . ."

May she now find peace.

I have to be honest here. My first thought was "May she rot in hell." But then remembered that's not my decision to make.

[Dravin]

I doubt she'll rot there but she'll probably have some sort of hiatus, if for no other reason than to accept the gospel (as we understand it) and receive vicarious ordinances, if we're speaking about Spirit Prison. If we are talking outer darkness I doubt she'll qualify, but as you said, ultimately not my judgement to make.

Figure of speech Dravin..figure of speech.

Didn't she become a born again Christian and even have some kind of ministry while she was in prison? I heard that Tex Watson did the same also.

I believe so. She was also one that condemned Charles Manson and claimed no more allegiance to "The Family."
