Charles Manson’s ‘health is failing’: Report

Charles Manson maybe serving his final days in prison, according to a published report.

The convicted mass murderer is at the Corcoran State Prisonwhere he is serving a life sentence, corrections officials said on Saturday, following recent reports that the hippie-era cult leader had been hospitalized.

TMZ, who first reported last week that Manson was taken to a Bakersfield, California hospital for severe intestinal bleeding, is now saying he might not survive.

According to the website’s latest report, Manson initially refused surgery for the bleeding, but when he changed his mind, doctors ultimately decidedit was too risky to go ahead with the operation. He was then reportedly sent back to prison.

“He’s not good. His health is failing,” a source told TMZ.

In the 1960s,Manson, a charismatic ex-convict, assembled a group of runaways and outcasts known as the “MansonFamily.” In the summer of 1969, he directed his mostly young, female followers to murder seven people in what prosecutors said was part of a plan to incite a race war.
