Parole Hearing Scheduled For Charles Manson

A parole board hearing is scheduled for Charles Manson on Wednesday. Manson is currently serving a life prison term for seven homicides that are commonly known as the Tate-LaBianca murders.

Manson has been denied parole 10 times in the past, receiving a "string of five-year denials" owing to the gravity of his crimes, Sessa said. Five years is the maximum period that can elapse in between parole board hearings for inmates serving life with the possibility of parole.

I'll update later when we know what happened, although it's not likely anything's going to change.

I also wanted to add DANG! You should write about Charles Manson if you want people to read your blog! Since I blogged earlier about his parole hearing, I have had tons of hits from people searching for news about his hearing. One day almost 20% of people coming to my blog were looking for that! (ETA: Today it's been 30%!) Wow, who knew?

So, in case you were wondering, the next hearing will be for Patricia Krenwinkel sometime in July.

Editing to Add: Charles Manson again denied parole in California

Well, that's it until 2012...
