Charles Manson, now 77, gets new chance at parole

[Hepburn]

54. By "do", I did not mean cause some sort of harm.

A release from prison means probation or parole and there are requirements involved. At his age, I doubt if he could "do" anything that would allow him to live any sort or type of a regular life. I am guessing that his refusal to attend his parol hearings is an indication that he is aware that he most like would not be successful on the outside. He would have no protection from those who saw him as a curiosity or those who sought revenge or those who wished to exploit him. Anywhere he lived, most likely a side show would result and neighbors who most likely not wish to have him there to begin with and once the publicity, he most likely would not be welcomed at all.

Like I said, let him die in prison.
