20th time not the charm for CHARLES MANSON gang murdereress Leslie Van Houten. Victims kin help keep her behind bars.
Van Houten was convicted of murder and conspiracy for her role in the slayings of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, who were stabbed to death by Charles Manson followers August 1969.
Van Houten, 63, confessed to joining in stabbing Mrs. La Bianca after she was dead.
A night prior members of Manson's kill crazed cult killed actress Sharon Tate and four others, but Van Houten was not a participant in those murders.
“I X-ed myself out of society and I ask you to allow me to re-enter society," Van Houten said in her parole request.
But her plea, supported by seeming rehabilitation and good works in prison, carried little weight with the two parole commissioners, who said her crimes were "heinous and atrocious".
