Just weeks after joining Charles Manson's ragtag "family," Linda Kasabian was entwined in the bloodbath that became known around the world as the Tate-LaBianca murders. Actress Sharon Tate and six others were killed under orders from Manson during a two-night rampage that would terrify Los Angeles and bring the 1960s to an abrupt and grisly end.
Kasabian went on to serve as the chief prosecution witness in the sensational 1970 trial that sent Manson and three followers to prison for life. She later said, "I could never accept the fact that I was not punished for my involvement in this tragedy. ... It was a waste of life that had no reason, no rhyme."
