Just looked at the Manson photos. I'd read the book "Helter Skelter," by the DA who prosecuted the case (Vincent Bugliosi) but I'd never seen some of these photos. Sick.
um, a litle disappointed. you get the strong idea those people were in horrible pain. not much graphicness to the pictures, though. most of them were black and white.
