Featuring insights from Nicholas Tochka, author of 'The Musical Lives of Charles Manson: The Beatles, the Beach Boys, and the Invention of the Sixties ―or, No Sense Makes Sense', the clip examines what’s documented, what remains speculation, and why the Manson story continues to fascinate decades later.
