Welcome to dark dives, a new series where we explore the murky and devious depths of humanity. This goes beyond corporate greed and get rich quick schemes, beyond shady products and questionable CEOs. Here, we take a look at the very worst of humanity, to see what evil people are truly capable of.

The Manson Family Murders and the family itself have been the topic of discussion for decades. Manson himself was seen as the epitome of evil, the angel of death, and the undying support from his family drew the world in. Their gruesome string of murders shocked everyone and left Los Angeles terrified and the trials that followed were a circus of dramatic outbursts and unprecedented pageantry. But who was the Manson family really?
