For the fifth time in as many years, Leslie Van Houten, a former Charles Manson follower and convicted murderer, has been recommended for release by California's Board of Parole Hearings.
Van Houten, 72, is"relieved," her attorney, Rich Pfeiffer, told CNN in an email. "These hearings are very hard on her," Pfeiffer added. Van Houten was 19 when she met Manson and became part of the murderous cult that came to be called the"Manson Family," according to previous parole documents."I was mesmerized by his mind and the things he professed," Van Houten once said.
