Well, now that he has passed on, we can finally publish my combination biography/analysis of the life and career of Vincent Bugliosi.
http://www.ctka.net/2015/the_prosecutor_bugliosi.html
I am really proud of this essay, and wish it had not been so heavily edited by my publisher in Reclaiming Parkland.
There is no better biography of Bugliosi anywhere to be found. And I also think there is no better analysis of his legal career and his attempted foray into politics. You won't find as much good information on the man in one single place than you will here.
And, of course, there is my revisionist view of the Tate/LaBianca murders. How Bugliosi and Gentry got away with this fig leaf of a story for so long stunned me. As I write here, I had not read the book until I wrote the essay. As I was taking notes on Helter Skelter, about every 30 pages I would write down, WTF! When I was done, I wrote, "This sounds like a cover story to me." I then consulted some other books, and I was convinced that was the case. I am even more convinced of that today.
Anyway, read and enjoy and spread the word.
