Mrs La Bianca was found with multiple stab wounds in her chest and neck.On the La Bianca's living room wall, written in blood, were the words "DEATH TO PIGS" and "RISE." On the refrigerator door was written: "HEALTER SKELTER."Leslie Van Houten was later convicted of holding down Mrs La Bianca while an accomplice stabbed her to death. She had come to view Manson as Jesus Christ.In 2002, she told a parole board she was "deeply ashamed" of her role in the killings."I take very seriously not just the murders but what made me make myself available to someone like Manson," she said.Before the killings, Manson, who has been married twice and is thought to have two children, was on the fringe of California's music scene.He even hung out with Beach Boy Brian Wilson and Doris Day’s son Terry Melcher.After his arrest, several songs written and recorded by him were released.Marilyn Manson and Guns N' Roses have both released cover versions of the killer's songs.Manson has also had an influence on fashion, films and TV programmes.
