            In 1975, Squeaky attempted to meet Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin to warn him of a ‘bad energy’. She was unable to meet him so she gave a note to the bands record company to pass on to him. They burned her letter.

            That same year she went to Sacramento’s Capitol Park dressed as Little Red Riding Hood. She allegedly went there to plead with President Gerald Ford about the concern for the Californian Redwoods. When she was there, she pointed a gun at the president and was restrained by security before the gun went off. Her trial was long and she refused to cooperate with her own defense. She was convicted of attempting to assassinate the president and received a life sentence.

MANSON FAMILY

In 1972, Squeaky travelled with a group of friends to meet James Craig and Lauren Willet at a cabin. Her companion, Michael Monfort forced Craig to dig his own grave and shot him. Monfort believed Craig was going to to tell the authorities about a series of robberies.

            Squeaky and her cohorts were arrested and Craig and Willet’s body was found. Willet’s baby daughter was found alive inside the cabin.

            Squeaky was released due to lack of evidence, however, the rest of her group were all found guilty and convicted.

            Squeaky and her best friend Sandra Good (also a Manson member) moved into an apartment together. They created a religion dedicated to Manson, wearing robes, Squeaky was nicknamed ‘Red’ and Sandra was nicknamed ‘Blue’, these nicknames allegedly given to them by Manson.

            In 1979, whilst in prison, Squeaky had to be transferred for attacking an inmate with a claw-end of a hammer. She was later given parole and released in 2009 and then lived with her boyfriend Robert who had allegedly killed someone in 1988. They decorated their home with skulls. Her boyfriend wasn’t originally a follower of Manson, but has admiration for him.

            When Manson died in 2017, Squeaky admitted she still loves him.
