Man discovers Charles Manson is his real dad
 

damn :Oh crap

A MAN who went in search of his biological father was shocked to learn it was famed serial killer Charles Manson.

Matthew Roberts, a 41-year-old DJ who lives in Los Angeles, said the shock of discovering his father sent him into depression.

See a photo of Matthew Roberts here

"I didn't want to believe it. I was frightened and angry. It's like finding out that Adolf Hitler is your father,? Mr Roberts told The Sun.

"I'm a peaceful person - trapped in the face of a monster."

Despite his revulsion Mr Roberts has been exchanging mail with Manson, who is serving life in Corcoran State Prison in California over nine murders committed by his ?Family? of followers in 1969.

?He sends me weird stuff and always signs it with his swastika,? Mr Roberts said.

?At first I was stunned and depressed. I wasn't able to speak for a day.

"I remember not being able to eat."

Mr Roberts grew up in Rockford, Illinois but didn?t know he was adopted until his sister told him at age 10.

Despite his adoptive father telling him ?nothing good? would come of discovering who his real parents were, Mr Roberts used a social services agency to locate his mother, Terry.

She confirmed Mr Roberts was adopted and told him his birth name was Lawrence Alexander but would not reveal the last name.

Eventually Terry relented and revealed that Mr Roberts' father was Manson, who she claims raped her in 1967 after she had succumbed to his manic charisma.

"She even said, 'You look just like him', Mr Roberts said recalling the shocking revelation.

Manson has confirmed that he could be Mr Roberts? father and that he remembers Terry.

The former cult leader wrote to Mr Roberts that: "The truth is the truth. The truth hurts."

Mr Roberts fears he may have inherited some of Manson?s characteristics but insists he is a very peaceful person.

"I'm not nuts but I've got a little bit of it,? Mr Roberts said.

?It's scary and upsetting. If I get worked up, my eyes get really big and that's really freaked some people out before.

"I've tried to tone that down quite a bit. I don't like having that effect on people.

"I don't even like the fact that I'm big. It makes me even scarier. My hero is Gandhi. I'm an extremely non-violent, peaceful person and a vegetarian.

"I don't even kill bugs. I've had long hair all my life. I could make it go away, but I can't let the world and their fears change me."

Mr Roberts has a prison phone number for Manson but says a ?subconscious block? stops him from calling.

"If I did talk to Charlie on the phone, I would say, 'I truly understand what it's like to be you, more than anyone could ever imagine on so many levels,'? Mr Roberts said.

"He's my biological father - I can't help but have some kind of emotional connection. That's the hardest thing of all - feeling love for a monster who raped my mother.

"I don't want to love him, but I don't want to hate him either."

I can't help but have some kind of emotional connection

What an idiot.... what will people do for their 15 minutes of fame these days....

Hmm Manson has sent thousands of people letters and havent ever seen him sign it with a swastika, usually Charlie Manson his full name.

I call bullshit.

Manson has been sending out letters and art for decades and never signed it with a swastika, this guy is milking it.

well he's his father is it wrong to care about him :helpme

how do you know how he signs it

Because I know people who collect serial killer letters and art and have some of his, and he doesnt sign his art or letters with a swastika LOL

Not to mention there are thousands of images of his artwork online and he signs his full name on it all.

Duh. So Manson sends out dozens of letters and constantly sens fans art and signs his full name, but when he mails his own son he signs it with a swastika? LOL get real, this guy is twisting it to get in the news.

Charles Manson signs his name on all his art and from what I have seen all his letters.

Ive been looking at his art for many years, since college.

maybe the letter 2 his son he signed it like that

The shock is understandable,sucks to be him.

Holy crap, just check out the photo of his face, it's amazingly like Mansons. I call real based on photo.

fucking people :)

yeah my kids are mini meez :1orglaugh my clones

I dont believe half of what the Sun Newspaper say they twist things and lie to make the story more apealing to make more $$$ ......................................

FUCK THE SUN NEWSPAPER THEY ARE FULL OF SHIT

lol, I hear you. But some traits are strong in some families. All of my brothers and I look like our dad, our uncles, grandfathers etc.

Is it a known fake?

that poor bastard

charlie had unsafe sex? that is so irresponsible.

Point i'm making is what if his name wasn't someone who killed a ton of people... probably wouldn't care and this would be a non-story. :disgust

It all sounds plausible, and there is a strong resemblance..

These look they have a swastika in the sig (and obviously the "art")

yep his signature seems to have a swastika in it

This thread reminds me of this TRUTH: We are not our fathers. We make our own futures. While the past may live in us, the past does not have to imprison us.

It's like finding out that Adolf Hitler is your father, yeah. It's like when Luke Skywalker found out Darth Vader is his father. It's like finding out your father is the drug-dealer rapper by the name of Adolf's Dogg.

Shenanigans!

yeah would set u back :Oh crap new reality show from prison meet the manson's
