A third consecutive California governor is blocking parole for a former follower of late cult leader Charles Manson.
Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday reversed a parole recommendation for Bruce Davis, now 77, for the 1969 slayings of musician Gary Hinman and stuntman Donald “Shorty” Shea. It was the sixth time Davis was recommended for parole but blocked by a governor.
Davis was convicted of helping kill both men in separate slayings, after which other members of the cult wrote “political piggy” on the wall of Hinman’s home in his own blood.Parole panels have repeatedly decided Davis is no longer a public safety risk, citing his age and good behavior. But his release has been blocked by Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Democrats Jerry Brown and now Newsom.Like his predecessors, Newsom said Davis remains too dangerous to be free.
Davis has said he attacked Shea with a knife and held a gun on Hinman while Manson cut Hinman’s face with a sword.Attorney Michael Beckman said his client lacks the money to challenge Newsom’s decision in court.
