Watch Helter Skelter

This movie details the events surrounding the prosecution of the Manson Family, a group of drug users who followed the direction of a cult-like leader named Charles Manson during the Hippie Era. Charles Manson, an ex-felon, picked a name out of a phone book and ordered some of his followers to murder the couple living at that street address, which they did. A short time later, members of the Manson Family brutally murdered pregnant actress Sharon Tate and several house guests during her husband's absence. The movie describes the investigation and prosecution of the case and its unusual courtroom proceedings.
