Sharon Tate’s sister criticizes release of Manson follower Leslie Van Houten, thinks she’ll kill again

The sister of Sharon Tate, a beloved actress killed by members of Charles Manson’s murderous cult in the late 1960s, criticized the prison release of Leslie Van Houten, saying that it’s likely she will kill again.

Van Houten was released on parole earlier this week after serving 53 years for the murders of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca.

According to Van Houten’s attorney, she exited the California Institution for Women in Corona, near Los Angeles, on Tuesday and has since been transported to a “transitional living facility.” She’s required to serve “a three-year maximum parole term with a parole discharge review occurring after one year,” the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said.
