he was a power hungry freak who manipulated vulnerable runaways to do his bidding in a time of free love ....unfortunately all for the bad rather than to do good

Answer 2

apples?

Answer 3

Because he is psychotic and deranged.

Charles Manson was good at manipulating people. He took pieces from various religions to form his own philosophy. When the Beatles released their White Album in 1968, Manson believed their song "Helter Skelter" predicted an upcoming race war. "Helter skelter," Manson believed, was going to occur in the summer of 1969 when blacks were going to rise up and slaughter all the white people. He told his followers that they would be saved because they would go underground, literally, by traveling to an underground city of gold located in Death Valley.

However, when the Armageddon that Manson had predicted did not occur, he said he and his followers must show the blacks how to do it.

Manson told four of his followers to go to 10050 Cielo Drive in Los Angeles and kill the people inside. This house once belonged to Terry Melcher, the man who had not helped Manson with his music career. However, Melcher no longer lived there; actress Sharon Tate and her husband, director Roman Polanski, had rented the house. On August 9, 1969, four of Manson's followers brutally murdered Tate, her unborn baby, and four others who were visiting her (Polanski was in Europe for work). The following night, Manson's followers brutally killed Leno and Rosemary LaBianca in their home.

Answer 4

Because he's a sociopath and he prayed on weak minded people.

Answer 5

he didn't actually kill anyone... his followers did. And only someone truely deranged could do it.  

Answer 6

On the T.V station "ID (Investigation Discovery)" There will be a show on Thursday at 10:00 PM US & Canada Eastern Time called "Deranged: Charles Manson" that will probably give you all the information you need.  

Answer 7

He was running a car ringing/stealing and drugs racket for the mob.  The attack was punishment for some people who 'stepped out of line'.

Answer 8

He was a sick, power-hungry murdering psychopath.

Answer 9

Perhaps he was under a demonic trance or perhaps he wanted to kill to see what it felt like or maybe he is just sick in the head and pure evil..

Answer 10

Only he can answer that.  They have been trying to figure it out for years, but he hasn't told them, he just keeps giving them riddles.

I'd say Power and he believe in his own lies, he enjoyed the chase, the torture and the killings, to him it was a game, like cat and mouse.

He still believes today that he had done nothing wrong.

Well I believe he should be given the death penalty. He and his followers are a waste of space.  They are pure EVIL...
