Bad decision. People are dead. She should never get out. I have a problem with it.

I don't buy that Manson controlled these people to kill. They have free will, they could have chose not to kill.

Your brain washing theory is complete bullshit. In the end we are all responsible for our own actions. But if anyone was to get parole she's the most deserving because she never killed anyone. She stabbed the LaBiancas' after they were dead.

Also what if Manson is right? That there was no such thing as a Manson family but a musical group called family jams? He said he never ordered anybody to be killed, he says that in every interview. What if all that cult thing is a made up thing by bougliosi and the others to make money with the books they sell, the shows, etc.?

Susan Atkins should have had a parole too.

I agree with you she has changed enough and genuinely expresses remorse over what she has done you can sense it

This whole debacle was intended to send the message that the city of New York doesn't want Joe/Jane Average Citizen to defend themselves against people with mental issues, career criminals or the homeless. They are not taking steps to stop shoplifting or random attacks against people in the street. Almost everyday you can read how some store in one of the 5 boroughs was ransacked, or someone was punched by a random homeless person with mental issues and nothing was done about it. Even though Penny was acquitted people will understand that he could just as easily have been sentenced to prison so they need to be careful who and how they help people.

You’re thinking about solutions “why didn’t they do this or do that?” in a very Anglo American way. The answer is exactly as it always is in these cases. The family doesn’t care for years and years until the guy dies going something abjectly stupid and suddenly they smell a wrongful death lawsuit because they’ve lost their beloved angel who they haven’t seen or spoken to in as much time. There are some truths here some might find uncomfortable, but it just becomes banal once you realize different groups think about things differently.

This is just a classic case of ascribing a racial motive to an incident where none was present, which is very much in tune with the broader Zeitgeist. You could also easily make the argument that the same is true of the Floyd incident, i.e. is the idea that the tactics employed by the officer were motivated by race based in fact, or is it as a result of a turbo charged narrative that seeks to portray any interaction between a black and a white American as racist, provided the outcome is unfavourable for the former. No one is cheering for the tragic outcomes of such incidents, but if all you have is a hammer (racial lens), everything you see is a nail (racism).

So no personal responsibility. I’m not even saying that she shouldn’t have got out. But can you really blame it on someone else and say they were under someone’s control, our laws aren’t really written that way. You pretty much have to take responsibility for yourself and if you choose to become a part of something that is Bad or evil that is a decision that will affect your future. If you play a stupid game you win a stupid prize. Again, I understand how long it’s been and maybe she should be free by now because obviously she was young and impressionable and on drugs and she’s not the same person now. But the law can’t be so vague. You have to take personal responsibility, I don’t know how you get around that. We’ve all had a bunch of negative influences and people that peer pressured us or pulled us into things that we didn’t feel comfortable doing or didn’t wanna do. But at some point, there’s a decision you have to make whether you’re going to be with people people like that or or not. Whether you’re gonna do something wrong or not. You know inside when you’re doing something wrong. It’s a strange conundrum. You don’t wanna blame her because you say she was under Charlie’s control but then how can you blame Charlie when a lot of people say that he didn’t kill anybody technically. So where does the blame lay?

I❤m happy for her

What they did to sharron Tate and her unborn child she should of got 100 years

Hey everyone slight edit for the video. In the video i say that List got 4 life sentences. John List actually got 5 life sentences. Thank you for watching keep calm and stay awesome.🤘

No damn parole!!!

it doesnt matter if its been 40 years the victims are the real victims there dead and there not coming back i think she should be locked up for the rest of her life

Video about sonya massey

Cool videos bro. You should provide pictures and video to improve your interactions with audiences. Thank for covering of that lil kid. That officer is well know in the community to be asshold. No love from Utica community

I agree she was indeed brainwashed and not fully responsible, it's a tragedy all round .she should have got out years ago x

I live in Hamburg,ny. The support this guy is getting locally is insane. He let neighborhood children swim with a dangerous animal. I work at the supermarket he buys chicken tenders and french fries. I guess the alligator likes a fast food diet.

Rehabilitated!

A steady diet of LSD and meth, a rebellious culture, and criminal manipulation, created these people.

The way she did the murder , ,was more than Charles Manson told her to do , She's evil , shouldn't get of Prison , but now she's free, Bad decision

You obviously have zero feelings for the dearly departed , no idea of how it felt to be around in that period, she should have been in for life .

Manson could not control those young adults. They had poor parenting.

She was drug addicted and she was in a cult. And, she actively participated in the murder of one person - Rosemary LaBianca. Is that a horrible thing? Absolutely. But again, she was drug addicted and in a cult. People with no prior convictions commit murder and sometimes do 10 years....or less. What did she do - 53 years???? She probably should have been out 20 years ago. The woman is truly remorseful, she straightened up and grew up and she's not a threat to anyone.

SHOULDNT SHOW THAT FACE🤣

I should had known that Leslie Van Houten that she got on Parole and they let her out. I mean she was one of those followers who stabbed Rosemary n' she stabbed Leno after Tex carved WAR on his stomach. I bet it had to do with the 1997 Parole hearings.

Well sure, she should still be in jail, but Steve Bannon and Roger Stone should be in jail too. I imagine the magat that murdered his father and cut his head off will get a pardon from Trump should he manage to cheat his way back into power.

She was originally sentenced to death in the San Quentin gas chamber but she was reprieved in 71 and got life instead.

you need a new mouth the tash does f all 🤣🤣🤣

Sympathy no. F- Them all.👹👹👹👹

Sympathy no. F- Them all.👹👹👹👹

I agree with Leslie being paroled. The wounds she inflicted on Mrs. Labianca we're post mortem. If it had been any body else they would of been paroled 20 yrs. earlier.

They never should have let this woman out!!! She was old enough to know not to stab a dead body. That dead body was abused!! She stabbed a corpse 16 times! Does this make sense? No!! She is a liar!! She killed by being present.. An accessorie. She was present and watching!! She was grown!! Man , she was an adult. Would u want your momma stabbed? She stabbed someone that had a family!!! She caused a family to cry, man!!!

Leslie is no angel, but I believe she wouldn't have stabbed Mrs. LaBianca if Tex hadn't given her that knife. She didn't seem to get the joy out of it that the others did. She's spent most of her life in prison, and I don't think she will commit murder again. She's being supervised, after all.

She seemed like the one that was the most "sane" in all of the recent videos that I have seen of Manson's girls. The problem is that it happened so long ago that now, it seems everyone is oblivious to the facts of their crimes.

You were not alive in 1969. I was 14. Living in Los Angeles. So really mister, keep your freakin thoughts to yourself . Those times were very specific. Those times were not your time . Be quiet . She is bad .

Strange that Rosemary LaBianca's daughter advocated hard for Tex Watson's release when he actually killed her mother, but not LVH's release.

Manson found a bunch of broken children used LSD yo break them the rest of the way. He manipulated them to the point they didn't know where he ended and they began. They all had the feeling of not being loved by theirs families he gave them the "love" they didn’t think they were worth of. Almost 54 years after her arrest Leslie is far from that girl. She's where she's supposed to be.

She has more than enough paid her dues. She is not the same person she was. I do not have a problem with her being paroled and people should leave her alone

You are an rambling.....not old enough to remember this.

It does not matter what a "model prisoner" LVH may have become while incarcerated. The fact remains that, like CM, TW, SA and PK, she should never have been allowed to live long enough to become that model prisoner to begin with. The original death sentences should have been carried out. As Doris Tate said when she was grilling TW during one of his parole bids, "When does Sharon come up for parole? Are Sharon, Jay, Abigail, Voytek, Steve, Leno and Rosemary supposed to just "walk out of their graves" because you're now 'sorry'?" So yeah, go sell bleeding-heart logic somewhere else. These crimes were so far beyond heinous that even the most drug-addled and brainwashed hippie-chick knew or ought to have known the horror she was visiting upon her innocent victims.

Leslie is now 74 and will be in a halfway house for a year to prepare her to live in the outside world. She might have to go to a nursing home in a few years.

I would like for her to live with me

Brady the 🐐

A leopard never changes his colour, evil eyes still

I personally think if any of them should get out, it should be her. She actually WAS out for a while in the 70s for a seperate trial and even that was a hung jury the first round
