Attorney Quote by Charles Manson
“Your Honor, I am in a difficult position. The news media has already executed me and buried me...If anyone is hypnotized, the people are hypnotized by the lies being told to them...There is no attorney in the world who can represent me as a person. I have to do it myself.”
