Atkins' "confessions" however, had a pattern and three-fold purpose (IMHO): she acknowledged wrongdoing, usually the less serious offense, she viewed herself as the victim too, and she implicated and blamed others, usually men, for doing the most serious criminal actions or offenses.
Also charged with moving stolen cars across state lines long before she met CM, guess they had something in common, maybe that's how they struck up they're first conversation?
Weird Hippie Commune, early morning raid by polce, Ex - Con companions, auto theft, armed robbery, hidden weapon, suicide all before charlie " brainwashed" her, wow. Suspended sentence and probation. ( if only they knew ) How do you find this stuff cats.
What a lovely young woman she was before hooking up with Charlie. She got more compassion than she ever deserved. What nerve she had to ask for compassionate release! Good riddance.......to bad rubbish. If that sounds harsh, I really don't care. Don't bother scolding me. FB
Another unique historical find. 18 at the time... doubt this is evidence of a criminal, or any kind, of mastermind. Her deadliest habit was falling in with ex-cons, but it wasn't her jealousy of Hollywood & the music biz, or her pathological rage and narcissism, that spawned the horror of the Tate/LaBianca/Shea murders.
