Download The Manson Women and Me: Monsters, Morality, and Murder AudioBook Free
In the summertime of 1969, Leslie Vehicle Houten and Patricia Krenwinkel carried out horrific acts of butchery on the requests of the charismatic cult leader Charles Manson. At their murder trial the next calendar year, lead prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi referred to both so-called Manson Women as "human monsters". But to anyone who knew them growing up, these were bright, promising young girls, seemingly not capable of such an unfathomable crime. Award-winning journalist Nikki Meredith started visiting Vehicle Houten and Krenwinkel in jail to discover how they had changed throughout their incarceration. The greater Meredith got to know them, the more she was lured into a deeper issue: What compels "normal" visitors to do unspeakable things? The author's romantic relationship with her themes offers a chilling lens through which we gain insight into a specific kind of girl capable of a specific kind of brutality. Through their experiences, Nikki Meredith calls for listeners over a dark journey into the very center of evil.
