Leslie Van Houten Denied Parole for 15th Time

Leslie Van Houten, convicted of participating in the Charles Manson-La Bianca killings, has been refused parole for the 15th time. She's been a model prisoner for the past 30 years.

It's time for the State of California to set her free. As TalkLeft commented when she was coming up for hearing the 14th time:

Grant Leslie Van Houten parole. She was 19 at the time of the crime, has paid for it with 30 years of her life, and if you have ever listened to her (and we have, since some of her prior hearings have been televised) you can't help but feel she's genuine and hardly a threat to anyone now.
