Manson Family Cult Case Charles Manson was the founder of this cult and he was born to Kathleen Maddox who was a sixteen year old girl with no partner in 1934. He had a rough childhood as his mom became an alcoholic and she would give him money for him to fetch beer for her. His mother was also a prostitute and never paid much attention to him. Later on in his life his mother sent him to boarding school and he lived with his religious aunt and uncle. Charles went back to his mother but she didn’t want him back.

However, she had been given doses of morphine to help calm her nerves after the murders of her father and his wife. Lizzie was seen burning a dress shortly after, claiming it was an old one that had been ruined with paint. Lizzie Borden was arrested on August 11, 1892 for the double homicide. Her trial began nearly a year later on June 5, 1893. The mangled skulls of Mr. and Mrs. Borden were unveiled in the courtroom as evidence, thus causing such a shock that Lizzie fainted at the sight of them.

Richard Gossip is an Oklahoma prisoner who got charged with masterminding a 1977 murder at a run down budget motel he managed. Glossip still says that he is innocent. He lost a Supreme Court case in June 2015 and faced execution on Wednesday, September 16th, 2016 at the state penitentiary in McAlester. “If they execute me then I want it to be for a reason.

Another reason for the their fear may be because many of them participated in prostitution before they became victims which was viewed as a victimless crime in which they would be arrested. Victims were always on high security and if they use a cell phone/telephone or try to reach out to the police they will be punished. A lot of them have problems even trusting the police because commonly the law enforcement is corrupted and is being bribed by the

Rock v. Arkansas was a case, which took place in 1983. The defendant, Vickie Lorene Rock, was charged with manslaughter. She was convicted of killing her husband in July 1983. The defendant was unable to remember everything that had happened the night of her husbands killing. So therefore her defense attorney had a doctor, by the name of Bettye Back, twice hypnotize Vickie Rock to allow her to remember fully what happened the night she killed her husband.

Also Rosa was a civil right activist before her arrest. The bus driver how Parks had prior encounter with was James Blake he also demanded that she vacate her seat. But the other problem is that she was not sitting in the only white people area she was sitting in the middle of the bus in those days most people rode in cars or walked and so when Rosa boycotted the bus she was not sitting there because her feet were tired. Weeks after her arrest Parks was jailed a second time for her role in the boycott. Rosa took a stand because she did not want to be treated like a slave but she was not the only one how was sick of being a slave there was plenty of other people like there was Martin Luther King jr,Gandhi,Cesar Chavez, and plenty of other people.

Women have not always been as respected in society as they are now. In early America, women were banned from participating in most parts of society and their lives were mainly controlled by their fathers and husbands. While the women’s rights movement can be tracked as far back as 1850 is wasn’t until the early 1960s that the movement focused primarily on social inequality. (“Women’s Rights”, March 25 2013) This movement, also known as the Women’s Liberation Movement “aimed to dismantle traditional attitudes towards sexuality, family and reproductive rights, while also raising awareness of sexual harassment and violence. It also fought to end discrimination against women in the workplace and other sectors of American society.” (“Women’s Rights”,

The social evil ordinance didn’t allow for street prostitution and it funneled much that activity indoors. For instance, the Chief of Police, James McDonough, stated in his annual report of 1872 that the number of street prostitutes “have been almost entirely discontinued” and child prostitution “has been greatly diminished, if not wholly removed.” These results should have spurred further debate as to how to modify their regulatory system to include common-sense, middle-ground compromises to ensure the women’s basic rights. However, this experiment was too politically controversial for its time. Thus, the city discontinued this policy in 1874 largely due to organized lobbying efforts from religious and feminist leaders, including the wife of the St. Louis Police

Alcohol may have been a friendly companion for men after coming home from a long day at work, but little did people know, innocent women were being abused . The woman at last rebelled and The Woman’s Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) was finally founded in November 1874 in Cleveland, Ohio.
