Delve into the enigmatic world of the Manson Family as Eric Hunley and Jon Atack take you on a captivating journey through the intricate web of controversial linkages and influences surrounding one of history's most infamous cults. Explore the connections between Charles Manson, his followers, and figures like Jolly West, the MKUltra program, drugs like jimsonweed, and the potential influence of Scientology. Gain insights into the underlying dynamics that shaped the Manson Family and discover the untold story behind their criminal behavior. Jolly West, a highly controversial figure involved in the MKUltra program, has been linked to Charles Manson and his followers. While no concrete evidence supports this claim, West's defense of Patty Hearst using mind control as a defense strategy and his opposition to Scientology make the connection intriguing. The possibility of West's influence on Manson invites a deeper exploration of their relationship. Speculation surrounds the role of drugs within the Manson Family, particularly jimsonweed. Unlike LSD, jimsonweed induces a delirium-like state that can lead to violent behavior. However, attributing Manson's actions solely to drugs is challenging due to the variability of drug effects on individuals. David Smith, who worked in the same clinic as the Manson Family, has also gained attention in relation to Manson. Correspondence between Sidney Gottlieb, a key figure in MKUltra, and Jimmy Shavers suggests Shavers may have observed rather than directly programmed Manson. While Smith's involvement remains uncertain, his proximity to Manson warrants exploration of his potential influence. The potential impact of Scientology on Manson and his followers is worth examining. Although claims of federal agent infiltration lack evidence, Manson underwent auditing and training routines within Scientology. These practices could have influenced Manson's mindset and behavior, making Scientology's influence an intriguing area for investigation. The role of hypnosis and brainwashing in the Manson case is debated. While experts outline the steps involved in brainwashing programs, it is unclear if these factors were fully present in the Manson Family. Understanding the extent to which Manson employed manipulation techniques is crucial to comprehending the dynamics at play. The Manson Family case weaves criminal behavior, paranoia, and the influence of manipulative individuals like Manson. Exploring linkages and influences surrounding Jolly West, jimsonweed, and Scientology provides intriguing avenues for investigation. Through skepticism and thorough examination of evidence, we can gain a deeper understanding of the factors that allowed such a heinous cult to emerge. #MansonFamily #ControversialLinkages #Influences #JollyWest #Jimsonweed #Scientology #Cults #TrueCrime #Psychology #MindControl #UnravelingTheMansonFamily #EricHunley #JonAtack #CharlesManson #MKUltra #DavidSmith #Hypnosis #Brainwashing ************************************************ ?
