Download Restless Souls: The Sharon Tate Family's Account of Stardom, the Manson Murders, and a Crusade for Justice AudioBook Free
The gruesome murders of the beautiful and talented celebrity Sharon Tate, her unborn child, and four others that same night at the hands of the notorious "Manson family" rocked the nation. Among the most horrific crimes in modern background, these atrocities, the trial, and the next conviction of Charles Manson and his supporters caused a press sensation, spawning films, documentaries, and best-selling catalogs, including the common Helter Skelter. A defining minute in an age usually associated with radical peace, love, and understanding, this incident is the one which still resonates with millions today. Yet while this crime still left an indelible tag on society's awareness, it was, first of all, a shattering personal tragedy for those closest to Sharon-the adoring family left to handle the mental devastation of her loss. Now, after almost 40 years, their report is finally uncovered. Compiled by close family friend Alisa Statman and Sharon's niece, Brie Tate, Restless Souls draws on a wealth of materials, including interviews with the Tates, personal characters, tape recordings, home films, general public interviews, private publications, and official documents to provide a powerful, poignant, and affecting four-decade, three-generation memoir of crime and consequence, anguish and hope, trend and love, that is both a chronicle of death and a party of life. Increasing beyond all past accounts, Restless Souls is the most revealing, riveting, and psychologically raw account not only of the heinous murders, the hunt and shoot of the killers, and the behind-the-scenes theatre of their studies, but of the torment patients young families' endure for years in the wake of such senseless assault. Tate members of the family here established the record straight, correcting press misinformation and delving well beyond the official storyline to provide information, much of it designed for the very first time. Intimate, honest, and heartfelt, Restless Souls reveals impressive details, including:
- The dramatic role Sharon's daddy, P.J., a retired Military intelligence officer, performed in finding his daughter's murderers
- The response P.J. experienced when he arrived face to face-alone-with Sharon's convicted killer in a holding room throughout a parole reading
- The risks and menace that prolonged beyond prison wall space, haunting the victim's family for generations later
- The battle Sharon's mom, Doris, mounted to guarantee the privileges of patients' family members, particularly the to make an "impact affirmation" at parole hearings-a legacy that has helped keep dangerous scammers behind pubs
- The battles Sharon's sister, Patti, waged with the entertainment industry as she tirelessly did the trick to prevent music artists from glorifying her sister's killers in music, art, and movies
