Charles Manson follower Patricia Krenwinkel, jailed for killing Sharon Tate and others, recommended for parole

ABC  

A California parole panel has recommended the release of Charles Manson follower Patricia Krenwinkel for the first time. Key points: Krenwinkel has been serving a life sentence for the murders of Sharon Tate and four others On Thursday the parole panel said she was no longer a danger to society She was 19 when she met Manson, who she says abused her emotionally and physically It comes more than five decades after Krenwinkel and Manson's other followers terrorised the state and she wrote "Helter Skelter" on a wall using the blood of one of her victims. At her last parole hearing, Krenwinkel told how she repeatedly stabbed Abigail Folger, 26, heiress to a coffee fortune, at Tate's home on August 9, 1969. Krenwinkel became the state's longest-serving female inmate when fellow Manson follower Susan Atkins died of cancer in prison in 2009.
