Manson Family Vandalizes Nevada Ghost Town

Excerpts from Manson's name left at ghost town building (UPI) from May 22, 2008:

Paula Kniefel, a caretaker and tour guide at the long-abandoned building in Belmont [Nevada], said that the carving -- "Charlie Manson + family 1969" -- appears to have been made with a pocket knife, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. The carving is in the entrance of the county recorder's office.

Kniefel says that Walter "swore up and down" that Manson did not bother her. Henry Berg, who operates the Belmont Inn, said that Walter gave him a slightly different version -- that she ran the group off with a shotgun.
