Charles Manson's first prison interview | 60 Minutes Australia 🎥 Discussion News | Channify

In the late 1960's Charles Manson led a small, fanatical cult on a self-styled war against society.

For many, the only comfort was the thought that Manson would be put away for life. That's why this 1981 interview caused such a stir.
