Patricia was arrested at the Spahn Ranch raid. Following the raid,
her father, Joseph Krenwinkel, had
arranged for her release and had
sent Patricia to stay with relatives in Mobile, Alabama. On learning
this, Sergeant Michael Nielsen of LAPD contacted Mr. Krenwinkel, who
had given him the address of
where Patricia was staying. LAPD had
then contacted Mobile Police Chief James Robinson, and he
sent men
out looking for her. Patricia was arrested in Mobile at 3:20 p.m.,
Mobile time. This photo
shows her getting off of the plane as she is
returned to Los Angeles.
Patricia Krenwinkel is escorted by Sheriff's Deputy to court where

Charles Manson shown here at the time of the murder trial. He was
born, in Cincinnati, Ohio,
on Nov. 11, 1934. The illegitimate son of
a teenage prostitute, he never stood more than five
feet, two inches
and was an unlikely candidate to lead a criminal commune and a
murder cult.
He nevertheless became a guru to a pack of psychopathic
killers whose murders shocked
California and the entire U.S. in
1969.
