How the contributions of Charles Manson continue to shape the world today.
Charles Manson was an American cult leader and criminal who led the Manson Family in the late 1960s. His followers committed a series of murders in July and August 1969, most notably the murder of actress Sharon Tate. Though Manson didn't directly order the killings, he was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in 1971 due to his influence and ideology. The Manson Family's crimes remain a notorious part of American criminal history.
In June 1970, Rolling Stone featured Charles Manson as their cover story, further amplifying his notoriety following the Tate murders.
On February 14, 2002, Charles Manson allegedly created a will leaving his entire estate and body to his pen-pal Michael Channels, which was later contested after his death.

In January 2017, Charles Manson allegedly created a will giving his estate and body to Matthew Roberts, who claimed to be another son of Manson. This will was created around the same time that Manson was hospitalized for gastrointestinal bleeding.
Charles Manson died on November 19, 2017. He was an American criminal, cult leader, and musician who led the Manson Family.
On March 12, 2018, the Kern County Superior Court in California ruled in favor of Jason Freeman regarding the possession of Charles Manson's body, settling the dispute among multiple claimants.
On March 17, 2018, a funeral service was held for Charles Manson, after which his remains were cremated and scattered on a California hillside by his grandson, Jason Freeman.
