Why Charles Manson is Entitlef to a New Trial or even a trial according to history he did not get one okay Of all the multitudinous violations of Charles Mansons rights which have occurred since his arrest in 1969 none is so substantial as the denial of his constitutional (Sixth Amendment) right to defend himself at his trials. From the very beginning Manson has always voiced his desire to represent himself. On December 17, 1969 Manson made a formal request to do so in the courtroom of Judge William Keene. Your Honor, Manson said, There is no way I can give up my voice in this matter. If I cant speak, then our whole thing is done. If I cant speak in my own defense and converse freely in this courtroom, then it ties my hands behind my back, and if I have no voice, then there is no sense in having a defense. Lawyers play with people, and I am a person and I dont want to be played with in this matter. The news media has already executed and buried me.... If anyone is hypnotized, the people are being hypnotized by the lies being told them.... There is no attorney in the world who can represent me as a person. I have to do it myself.liesaboutcharlesmanson.blogspot/p/why-charles-manson-is-entitled-to-new.html
