Susan Atkins with her lawyer, Richard Caballero, arrive at County
Jail, apparently
for a visit with Charles Manson.
Susan Atkins, guarded by County Jail matron and deputy sheriffs,
enters Santa Monica Superior
Court Building for plea hearing in the
Gary Hineman murder case. Susan had been sent by
Manson together
with Bobby Beusoleil to Gary's house to get some money Gary had
supposedly inherited. They stayed with Gary two days, then he was
murdered.

Susan Atkins with her lawyer, Richard Caballero. Richard Caballero
was appointed to represent Susan
in the Gary Hineman murder case.
Richard Caballero also represented Susan on the Tate-LaBianca
case.
Shown here in the courtroom, Caballero says that Susan was at the
Tate LaBianca murder
scenes, but claims she was under a "hypnotic
spell."
Thomas Walleman, aka, T. J., was a reluctant witness. He'd never
completely broken with the Family.
He'd drift away, and drift back.
He seemed attracted by the easy life style, repelled by the memory
of the night he saw Manson shoot Bernard Crowe. Walleman accompanied
Manson on at least two
murder missions and the prosecution used him
as a witness to prove that Manson could kill.
