The Night Of August 8th 1969 Five People Would Be Murdered In The Hollywood Hills By The Manson Family.  The Horrific Crime Would Become One Of The Most Sensationalized Murders In Our Countries History.  The Courts Would Convict Manson And 4 Others  Of The Killings, With Each Monster Getting The Death Penalty.  A Book With All The Horrible Details Would Become A Best Seller And Movies Would Be Made.  But What If All That Was A Cover Up?  What If Manson Was Working For The CIA?  Secret Projects Like MK Ultra And CHAOS Were Testing LSD And Hypnosis In An Attempt To Bring Distrust To The Hippy Movement.  Those Programs Would Also Have Ties To Jack Ruby (the guy who killed Lee Harvey Oswald) And Would Eventually Kill An Elephant With LSD In A Botched Experiment!
