California Gov. Gavin Newson has reversed parole for Charles Manson follower Leslie Van Houten, marking the fourth time a governor has blocked her release.

, Saturday, Nov. 28, 2020. A California panel recommended parole in July for Van Houten, who has spent nearly five decades in prison. Newsom reversed her release once previously and his predecessor, Jerry Brown, blocked it twice.A California panel recommended parole in July for Van Houten, who has spent nearly five decades in prison. Newsom reversed her release once previously and his predecessor, Jerry Brown, blocked it twice.

Van Houten is serving a life sentence for helping Manson and others kill Los Angeles grocer Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary, in August 1969. Van Houten was 19 when she and other cult members fatally stabbed the LaBiancas and smeared the couple’s blood on the walls. The day before, other Manson followers, not including Van Houten, killed pregnant actress Sharon Tate and four others.

Newsom said in his decision that “evidence shows that she currently poses an unreasonable danger to society if released from prison.”In 2017, at her parole hearing, Van Houten talked about her childhood, including being devastated by her parents’ divorce when she was 14, using drugs, and running away with a boyfriend at the age of 17. She met Manson while traveling along the coast.

Manson was living on the edge of Los Angeles with the “family” he recruited to survive a race war that he said he would spark with random, horrifying murders.

Manson tried to start a race war. Totally unacceptable.

Those people never did anything to her to be killed like that and the smugness thereafter leaves a bitter taste.

Because SHE'S CRAZY!🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😎🧐😎👩‍⚖👨‍⚖😎🇺🇸!

She should never be released, she should die in prison.

These people should never be allowed out of prison unless in a body bag!

She was 19. The crime was 50 yrs ago & she’s been a model prisoner. I totally get someone believing a murderer should never get freedom, but she’s serving life w parole. A board recommended release. Who the f%^ is Newsome to overrule? He wasn’t even at hearing. Too much power!

I’m sure if this was a black woman she would have been free by now...Just like they are trying to free Mumia Abu Jamal in Philadelphia for his brutal crime when he decided to assassinate a police officer in 1981.

Good!

I have read about people who have murdered others and served life sentences only to be released after 20-30 years.The difference here is that she was a member of the Manson Family and that just causes all kind of fear in folks.I say let her out,she will carry this within forever.

Newson’s locking down EVERYBODY

Omg imagine if Trump pardoned her, can he do that, would he? 😳

Just wait until trump gets wind of this!!

When it comes to cold blooded murder, one deserves parole, they need to rot in jail

askjillian Although some might think that this is wrong let's think about what she did first and what she was part of Manson's Helter skelter war black versus white that right there doesn't need to be out on the street but anyone who did what she get what she was given life WITHOUT PAROLE

I lived in Pasadena when Manson cult commited murder. There was a rumor that Manson had been spotted in our neighborhood. People were terrified, kept their blindes closed, started neighborhood watch. Van Houten does not deserve release. Mason family terrified an entire state.

I’m shocked! She’s just like her so you’d think she would be understanding LockHerUp

Good for her let all mason followers rot in hell

Good. That is a debt to society that cannot be paid. Stop sending her to the parole board and wasting everyone’s time.

PrincessBravato Good.

teollom Let her rot.

Dam. I beg she secretly adopts her. CALIFORNIA, THE DUMP PIT OF AMERICAN S AND ANTI AMERICANS. DAM WHERE IS THAT EARTHQUAKE !!!

SenateDems SenateGOP HouseGOP HouseDemocrats 1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be misled: 'Bad company corrupts good character.'

Good she should never get out...only reason she is even up for parole is because of a technicality.....

For Sharon Tate, Abagail Folger, Voitek Frokowski, Leno and Rosemary Lobianko, and the Boy that was murdered in his Car Some of us remember these senseless crimes. Any one who knows what these cretins did understands that they can never be released.

Good! We have enough delusional cultists running free as it is. Mist are Cult45 members.

Good...don't let her out!

askjillian Good. She should never be free.

If she got new glasses she’d have a better chance of getting paroled. She looks like some kind of a killer librarian.

That's crap! ABC what are you going to do about it.

Yeah that’s not somebody who should be on the streets

she needs to rot in jail 🤷🏻‍♀️

askjillian Good!

She wouldn't be in this mess if there had been a Newsome-style government-enforced lockdown in August of 1969.

askjillian Awesome!!! I couldn't agree more. If only that guy wasn't out of his mind in so many other ways.

She should never see the light of day, except through iron bars.

Idk what you want abc with that pic...sympathy from me- no

How does she keep getting paroled? A governor shouldn't have to keep blocking it.

There’s some crimes that the perpetrators should never be released on parol or at all. This is one them.

She didn’t get life in prison without parole If the board feels she should be paroled then let her out

Rot

Gavin has a good history of denying rotten people. Dodged this bullet 👇 like Linda Carter.

askjillian Might as well let her out. No one will last long out here if this Covid shit isnt put into check. That means Wear a fucking mask at the very least.

askjillian She should give it up already. No one I. Their right mind is going to let her see the light of day outside of the walls again 🤷🏾‍♀️

She'll never get out. Just like Charlie, die in prison.

This is exactly what we need to do to tRump & followers

Good. Ignore the little old lady look. The heart and soul of this person is pure evil. May she end her days in jail, where she belongs.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

askjillian There's a pardon for trump

I believe some crimes are heinous enough for life imprisonment without parole. The Manson Family's crimes qualify.

Finally did something right

Rot in Hell, Leslie Van Rotten Sharon, Rest In Peace!

Shouldn’t even be considered after what she did.

good. If you are a Manson cut member you should enever be allowed out of prison.

Thank you sir

Why? Is it because she’s white? Newsom and his Antifa/BLM terrorist friends love releasing criminals onto the streets!

Keep the old granny that will probably poison you with kool aid

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Firing squad anyone? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Good

Good that bitch needs to stay in jail. She showed no mercy in her killings no mercy for her.

More good news please(((

That seems cruel and unusual, doesn’t it?

What did she do?

Thank you God for this governor

Donald Trump will go down in history as the first American president to have willingly betrayed his own country in service to a foreign enemy. His acts of treason will be taught in history books for generations to come, and the name “Trump” will become synonymous with treachery.
