I also am so impressed with lawyers and all the case law they remember when they had no database to just search for what they wanted. bibliotaphsbloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875266965053632320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-821259983338019563.post-34890135127160255532017-11-30T23:08:47.118-08:002017-11-30T23:08:47.118-08:00I agree with everything you've said here! I th...I agree with everything you've said here! I think the whole situation with the Family acting on impulse almost seems to solidify the prosecution's case against Manson. Their attempt to poison Barbara was so poorly organized, and so impulsive that it seems to underscore just how novice they are as murderers. However, if you look at the Tate and LaBianca murders (while messy), the aftermath was very calculated. For example, how they sought to implicate the Black Panthers at the LaBianca house. All of that was Manson and his forethought for how to accomplish exactly what he wanted to accomplish. Without Manson, this Family are a bunch of asinine fools who have no idea how to achieve what they want to achieve. It's like trying to throw together a movie without a director to narrow it into a conceivable and sensible vision. Manson was their director - their puppt master - and without him, they're just actors. <br /><br />Suffice to say, you can really see how this starts to turn around in Bugliosi's favour. It's like the Family is imploding. From the Family implicating themselves (and Manson through the way their criminal attempts differ when he was in the picture and when he isn't), to the way the defence lawyers are finding it so fucking hard to cope with the fuckery that is the Family and their lack of moral compass/conscience. It's incredible. You think the O.J. trial was a cluster fuck in American criminal justice, and then you look at this trial, and it's just a completely different level! Absolutely wild.
