Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme was considered Charles Manson's right hand woman and the Spahn ranch mother hen. She tried to keep the Manson family together after the Tate–LaBianca murders which ultimately failed. Later, in an effort to prove her commitment to Manson, she attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford in 1975.
