Charles Manson is known for being a murderer. His
nickname is Mac Charlie. He was in jail most of his life. He did not kill
anybody himself but he led 9 murders after gathering a group of followers whom
he called "the family". He and his followers used drugs like LSD and
magic mushrooms. He and his followers were sent to prison and sentenced to
death but that changed along with California's laws about the death penalty.
Instead of having the death penalty they were serving a life sentence in the
California state prison.
The consequence of following people without thinking in
this case are living in prison. This is true because Manson's followers were
not thinking and they followed someone who used drugs like LSD and magic
mushrooms , drugs that make people hallucinate. Besides using drugs he suffered
from mental disorders like schizophrenia and paranoid delusion behavior and he
still had people following him and doing as he said.
