The reason Charles Manson did this is because he was raped in juvenile over and over again as a young offender and in care. They threw him in with predatory older teenage male criminals.
He called it ‘the crazy game’ and it was his way of getting people to leave him alone.
I thought he gave the emails over because he’s a social climber who wanted to make someone more famous happy. But if he’s to be believed, the truth is that he’s actually just mind blowingly stupid
