Chopped stars off my rating after reading [b:Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties 43015073 Chaos Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties Tom O'Neill https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1543561687l/43015073.SY75.jpg 66837472]. Bugliosi was not only a stalker and a woman beater, but he committed so many deliberate legal errors in the Manson trails that the defendants deserve new trials, and he should have been disbarred. What I read in [a:Tom O'Neill 623923 Tom O'Neill https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]'s book about his suppressed evidence and created motives, findings verified by attorney Stephen Kay, horrified me. No matter what the Manson defendants did–and what they did was horrible–they deserved fair trials. And they didn't receive them by half, thanks to Bugliosi. There are proven lies in Helter Skelter.Verily, I am shooketh. And disgusted.
