Introduction To The Manson Family

By the time she had become pregnant with her second child, Linda was feeling rejected by her husband, who had left her behind for the South American trip.

The "hole" sounded like the Hopi legends that she had read about as a girl, and Kasabian was intrigued. In 1969, she decided against attending the July 4th Malibu "Love-In", and instead - daughter Tanya in tow - followed Share to the Spahn Ranch in the Chatsworth area of Los Angeles, where she met Manson.
