Names, Nicknames and Aliases

Here is a list of many people who are associated with the case in some form.
Although most of the people on this list were Manson Family members,
please note that some were not.  Some are actually victims or witnesses.
In some cases stolen identities were used and may appear on this list.
This list is simply to help readers keep the many names and aliases straight.

The basis of this list was compiled by Lt. Deemer but
this website has made many additions and corrections.
