Patricia Krenwinkel, California’s longest-serving female inmate and former follower of Charles Manson, will not be paroled after Gov. Gavin Newsom ruled against her release Friday.
In a signed ruling, Newsom said Krenwinkel “still poses an unreasonable danger to society if paroled at this time.”
The governor’s decision comes months after the state Board of Parole Hearings recommended Krenwinkel for release in May.
