🤔 Manson Family Member Walks Free: Are We All Just Cool With That? 👀

TL:DR; 😲 Leslie Van Houten, former follower of Charles Manson, just got her ‘Get Out of Jail Free’ card and it’s causing a serious stir. Sharon Tate’s sister, Debra, is convinced California just unleashed a potential killer back into society. 👿

Talk about a turn of events that’s got our eyebrows hitting the ceiling! 😳 The California justice system just uncaged Leslie Van Houten, an ex-disciple of the infamous Charles Manson. The decision has left Debra Tate, sister of the late Sharon Tate, feeling a tad miffed and, let’s face it, a little terrified. 🙀 She’s laying the blame on California, including the governor’s office, accusing them of dropping the ball instead of standing up to Van Houten’s parole bid. 🏀

So, here’s the 411. Governor Gavin Newsom did express his displeasure with the court’s decision. But, hold up! He didn’t fight back, arguing it was a futile effort. 🤷 Really, Newsom? Is that the excuse we’re going with now?

Debra points out Newsom could have taken it to a higher court, and she’s totally feeling like he left them high and dry by not doing so. Is she right? 🤔 A debate for the ages, my friends.

Now, what about the victims’ families? The people who were left to pick up the pieces after the heinous acts of Manson’s crew? Well, they’re feeling as chill as a sunbather in Antarctica, because they’re scared Van Houten might just return to her killing spree. Like, yesterday’s lunch, we’re having trouble digesting this whole thing. 😨

Van Houten claims she’s rehabilitated. Debra, however, isn’t buying what Van Houten is selling. 💔 She believes that once you’ve walked the path of darkness (and we’re talking pitch-black, middle-of-the-night darkness), it’s all too easy to find yourself back there. Yikes! 😱 Do people really change, or are they just on a never-ending loop of their past selves?

Let’s clear up some facts here. Although Van Houten wasn’t directly involved in the Tate murders, she did lend a hand in the butchering of the LaBiancas. Oh, and she publicly expressed her regret for missing out on Sharon Tate’s murder. (Are you kidding me? 😡) Debra thinks this is a cause for concern, and frankly, we can’t say we disagree.

In a shocking twist, Debra and the rest of the victims’ families are livid that Van Houten will get to enjoy life outside prison, a privilege their loved ones were brutally denied. 🚫 After all, what happened to the ‘life sentence’ they assumed was a forever deal?

Now, Debra’s not just sitting around and taking this. She’s leading a campaign to keep all Manson family members behind bars, spearheading an online petition that’s been active for a while now. Kudos to her for taking a stand! 💪

So, here’s a question to chew on: does the justice system have a responsibility to not only punish, but also protect society from potential threats? And more importantly, have we underestimated the power of a parole board’s decision, and what it could mean for society? 🤔 Let’s hear your thoughts.
