Charles Manson’s last hideout burns in California
DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK, Calif. — A California desert cabin that became cult leader Charles Manson’s last hideout has been gutted by fire.
Death Valley National Park spokesman Terry Baldino said Thursday that the isolated cabin was discovered burned on Tuesday.
He says it’s not known if it was an accident or a deliberate act.
The cabin was last seen intact Friday and may have burned over the weekend.
Manson and his followers hid at the cabin after killing actress Sharon Tate and seven others in the summer of 1969. He was arrested there that fall and is serving a life sentence.
