What happened to the Manson ‘family’? A look at key figures, decades after horrific murders
Bruce Davis, 76, was convicted in 1972 for taking part in the killings of Gary Hinman, an aspiring musician, and Donald “Shorty” Shea, a stuntman and a ranch hand at the Chatsworth ranch where Manson and his followers lived. Both murders occurred before the Tate-LaBianca killings, in which Davis did not participate.
Hinman’s body was found in his home, with the words “political piggy” drawn on the wall with his blood.
In January 2016, Brown rejected Davis’ parole, the third time a governor has done so, saying that Davis remains a danger to public safety. In his decision, Brown said that the “horror of the murders committed by the Manson family in 1969 and the fear they instilled in the public will never be forgotten.”
Davis has been denied parole 30 times. A California parole panel again recommended his release in 2017 and Brown again rejected parole for him, according to the Associated Press.
Davis is serving a life sentence after he was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder and robbery. He became a born-again Christian behind bars, earned a doctoral degree in philosophy of religion, and ministers to other inmates.
