Convicted serial killer Charles Manson, whose deranged followers killed a pregnant movie actress and then stuck a fork into her stomach, was recently in the news when it was discovered that he had a cell phone that had been smuggled to him in prison.

This uprising struck a chord with members of the “progressive” community, including former Obama official and communist Van Jones.
