Top 10 Facts About Charles Manson’s Trial and Imprisonment

Although he was arrested several times during his cult reign, his most serious crimes didn’t occur until 1969. In an interview with MSNBC, Manson said he wouldn’t feel a thing if he hurt the interviewer. He also denied being involved in any of the crimes they accused him of. And that’s when he said one of his most chilling quotes. Mason was sentenced to life in prison in 1972.

A six-year investigation was launched when Fish ended a young life and later sent an anonymous letter to the mother describing what he had done.

In 1936, he was executed by electrocution and said that he was looking forward to the thrill.

Sentenced to life, he shared his cell with inmate Eddie Lee Shelton. The two didn’t seem to get along and French ended Shelton’s life. Once again, French requested a death sentence after explaining he finished off Shelton to give enough reasoning for an execution. When on the chair, French’s final words were directed at journalists - he suggested a headline pun for his passing.

Richard Ramirez, aka the ‘Night Stalker,’ was most known for ending the lives of over 13 people and horrifyingly tormenting dozens more. He was most active between 1984 and 1985, and was arrested that same year. During his trial, Ramirez managed to gather a fanbase of fellow Satan worshippers. It is also rumored that he orchestrated an attack on one of the jurors which delayed the trial. After being sentenced to death, Ramirez refused to show any remorse.

Joe Metheny was a serial killer, sentenced to life without parole in 1998. However, he was already on trial in 1995, but the jury didn’t have enough evidence to connect him to the passing of the victims. After his final arrest, Metheny admitted to executing 13 people, including the victims in the 1995 case. However, evidence and research only found five victims in total. He confessed that he enjoyed carrying out his acts and didn’t feel any remorse. This quote is pretty morbid and it feels like we could be perfectly fine without knowing this fact. But now you know what the human body tastes like.
#3: Richard Kuklinski
Richard Kuklinski, aka the Iceman, was described as someone who took people’s lives for profit. He got his nickname after he froze one of his victims in order to try to divert law enforcement from determining the time of their passing. Kuklinski gave several interviews after his crimes and confessed to having caused the death of up to 200 men. He admitted he liked the hunt and the challenge, which was more important to him than the actual criminal act. He even got a thrill out of having more odds against him because it gave him an opportunity to figure out how he’ll carry out his act.

In his quote, Dahmer revealed that ending people’s lives wasn’t satisfactory. He wanted control. In his words, he wanted to create living zombies out of his victims.
#1: Peter Kürten
Peter Horan: Interview with the Former About.com CEO & Topix Board Member
Kürten has been arrested almost 30 times before his final sentence. His criminal acts were especially gruesome. So much so that they were recounted in a book called “The Sadist” which is considered a criminology classic. It is reported that by the time he was ten, Kürten ended the lives of two of his classmates. From committing petty crimes to brutal acts since he was little, Kürten was eventually sentenced to death and executed in 1931. Just before he passed, he asked his psychologist whether he’ll still be able to hear the aftermath after he loses his head. To make things more creepy, he added that this would be the ultimate pleasure.
