What explains the continuing fascination with Charles Manson?
Murderous cult leader Charles Manson has been granted a licence to marry, but what is it about this man, who committed his crimes more than 40 years ago, that continues to fascinate?
The stare is still the same. The hair may have greyed but the beard remains. With a swastika etched between his eyes, Charles Manson maintains an aura.
It is almost 45 years since he sent a group of his indoctrinated followers - known as the Family - to the home of heavily pregnant Hollywood actress Sharon Tate to "totally destroy everyone in it". She and four others were stabbed to death.
