The Region : Manson Follower Sandra Good Paroled

Share via

Sandra Good, still with the “X” she carved in her forehead as a symbol of fealty to Charles Manson, left a federal prison in Alderson, W. Va., having served nearly 10 years for conspiring to send death threats to corporate officials. Prison officials declined to specify her destination, but Rep. Vic Fazio (D-Calif.) said Good will begin her five years on parole at a group home in New England. Good, 41, still professes total allegiance to Manson, who is serving a life term for the 1969 slayings in Los Angeles of actress Sharon Tate and eight others. In March, she rejected terms of a release agreement, saying that if she could not be with Manson she did not want to be freed. Prison officials, who described Good as a model inmate, said they had no choice but to reschedule her release because of her accumulated “good time.” Probation terms prohibit her from having any contact with Manson and she will not be traveling to California, Fazio said.
