Finally, his own over-confidence tripped him up, whereby authorities were further creeped out over his matter-of-fact descriptions of his crimes.

In 1967, charismatic ex-con Charles Manson sent his trained followers to kill seven people under the premise of igniting a race war. Subscribe to Our Life: https://bit.ly/3dBMxvl Serial killers are the dark stars of modern culture, but is it nature or nurture that creates a serial killer? Born To Kill takes an in-depth look at the cases of some of the most notorious murderers that have shocked the world. During mid-1967's California flower power era, unemployed ex-convict and musician Charles Milles Manson, the unwanted and often jailed son of a prostitute, gathered a group of middle class flower children whom he developed into absolutely obedient followers. Extensive prison time throughout most of his life, which long since inured him from fearing punishment, made him institutionalized and dangerous, and a leader who needed followers. Ostensibly to ignite a race war between whites and blacks, he sent forth his mindless minions, his "Manson Family," to carrying out his personal hatred of, and frustrations with, society. Following seven shockingly brutal deaths in July and August of 1969, with slogans written in the victims' own blood (making infamous and ever after associative the Beatles song title "Helter Skelter"), Charles Manson's name would become forever synonymous with evil.
