President Nixon may have freed Charles Manson-not by an act of executive clemency, but by one of errant stupidity.
Defense attorneys for Manson, Leslie Van Houten, and Susan Atkins-who face charges of murder stemming from the mass killings last August of actress Sharon Tate and six other persons-moved for a mistrial yesterday after learning that Nixon had said that Manson was "guilty, directly or indirectly, of eight murders without reason."
Trial Judge Charles N. Holder denied the motion pending an official version of the Nixon remarks, but a defense attorney said the judge was "alarmed" at the report.
Oops
Late last night, however, Nixon said flatly he did not mean to imply that Manson was guilty.
Nixon made the remarks during an impromptu press briefing at a law enforcement conference in Denver. He criticized the press, saying that it tends to "glorify and to make heroes out of those who engage in criminal activities."
Referring to the Manson case, Nixon said, "here is a man who was guilty, directly or indirectly, of eight murders without reason."
Nixon said that "as far as the coverage was concerned [Manson] appeared to be rather a glamorous figure."
