Patricia Krenwinkel Parole Update
A California state parole board has recommended parole for Patricia Krenwinkel, a follower of Charles Manson, for the second time. Krenwinkel, 77, is serving a life sentence for her involvement in the 1969 murders of Sharon Tate and four others, as well as the LaBianca couple. Despite the parole recommendation, it requires approval from the Board of Parole Hearings and California Governor Gavin Newsom, who previously denied her parole in 2022; this hearing marked her 16th attempt at parole.
