A 25-year-old woman who calls herself "Star" claims she wants to marry one of the most notorious criminals in U.S. history.
The young woman has been visiting Charles Manson in prison for seven years.
"I can tell you straight up, Charlie and I are getting married," Star told Rolling Stone when asked about her alleged relationship with Charles Manson, 79.
Star has been visiting Charles Manson at Corcoran Prison in California since she was 19, where Manson has spent the last 44 years of his life serving a life sentence for orchestrating murders that still shock the country today.
Star, the name Manson himself renamed her, said she does not know when the wedding will take place, but that she takes the matter very seriously.
However, Manson denied the report, calling it "garbage", stating that "we are simply playing for public consumption".
He says of her that "she is not a woman. She is a star in the Milky Way."
Manson's pretender
Charles Manson, 79, is serving time for murders committed in 1969.
Whether true or not, such an announcement has put the public's eyes on the figure of this young woman interested in marrying the man who was convicted of orchestrating the bloody murder of Sharon Tate, the partner of film director Roman Polanski, and her guests in a Beverly Hills mansion in 1969.
The magazine notes that Star was born near St. Louis, Missouri, to a deeply religious family.
According to the young woman herself, her family locked her in her room for much of her adolescence, when she began taking hallucinogenic mushrooms.
It was during this period of confinement that she says she began to take an interest in Manson, after reading some words he wrote about defending the environment. Shortly afterwards they began to correspond.
Star recently carved a cross into her forehead, as Manson's followers once did, and is living in an apartment just two miles from Corcoran Prison.
She visits Manson every Saturday and Sunday, spending about five hours a day with him.
"fabricated history"
Star appears in videos posted on YouTube defending Charles Manson's innocence, accusing the media of spreading lies about him and creating a "myth" instead of taking into account the "facts that took place."
"It's not a true story, it was fabricated," he says of the murders perpetrated by the so-called "Family," made up of Manson's followers.
Under California state law, Manson could marry Star if he so desired, but they will not have sexual relations, as prison rules do not allow it with inmates serving life sentences.
