About this listen
In Part 3, we begin to dismantle it.
Fairshake traces the fissures beneath the prosecution’s case to uncover motives that were far less theatrical but far more believable.
We investigate how prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi's personal ambition—and a "Helter Skelter" book deal signed before the verdict—may have shaped a narrative that served his quest for a legacy.
We explore the personal vengeance motive: Manson's failed record deal with producer Terry Melcher, and the chilling, non-random fact that 10050 Cielo Drive was Melcher's former home.
Finally, we lay out a clear, chronological timeline of the Manson Family's criminal underworld—from the shooting of Bernard Crowe to the murder of Gary Hinman.
We ask: Were the Tate-LaBianca murders an apocalyptic prophecy, or a desperate, chaotic copycat crime staged to free Bobby Beausoleil from jail?
