FRONTERA, Calif. —
Former Manson family follower Patricia Krenwinkel lost her ninth bid for parole Monday for her conviction in the Tate-La Bianca murders that shocked the nation more than 20 years ago.
“The crime can only be described as despicable,” said Rudolph Castro, commissioner of the three-member Board of Prison Terms.
Krenwinkel, 43, convicted in seven of the 1969 Manson cult slayings in Los Angeles, is serving a life term at the California Institution for Women in this Riverside County community.
