CORCORAN, Calif. (AP) — Mass murderer Charles Manson plans to marry a 26-year-old woman who left her Midwestern home and spent the past nine years trying to help exonerate him.
Afton Elaine Burton, the raven-haired bride-to-be, said she loves the man convicted in the notorious murders of seven people, including pregnant actress Sharon Tate.
No date has been set, but a wedding coordinator has been assigned by the prison to handle the nuptials, and the couple has until early February to get married before they would have to reapply.
The Kings County marriage license, viewed Monday by The Associated Press, was issued Nov. 7 for the 80-year-old Manson and Burton, who lives in Corcoran — the site of the prison — and maintains several websites advocating his innocence.
And he has a jail family too. They like him because he keeps everybody amused with his psycho bullshit. So they allow him to stage publicity stunts for attention.
This is shocking news. He gets to what life has to offer. Whereas his victim do not.
That wife of his may be very cunning. There are people who will pay for Manson memorabilia. I'll bet there are people who will pay big bucks to have her autograph.
If one should follow the articles surrounding Manson you will realize that he loves to be in the spotlight in a sick way. He has managed to be the topic of discussion yet again thanks to this woman whose life is going to be affected forever for being the woman who married a serial killer in prison.
