CORCORAN, Calif. (AP) — Mass murderer Charles Manson plans to marry a 26-year-old woman who left her Midwestern home and spent the past nine years trying to help exonerate him.

Afton Elaine Burton, the raven-haired bride-to-be, said she loves the man convicted in the notorious murders of seven people, including pregnant actress Sharon Tate.

No date has been set but a wedding coordinator has been assigned by the prison to handle the nuptials, and the couple has until early February to get married before they would have to reapply. The prospective bride and groom have near-matching carvings on their foreheads. Hers is an "X'' and his is an "X'' that was turned into a swastika after he carved it during his trial to show he was "X'ed out of society."

The Kings County marriage license, viewed Monday by The Associated Press, was issued Nov. 7 for the 80-year-old Manson and Burton, who lives in Corcoran — the site of the prison — and maintains several websites advocating his innocence. Burton, who goes by the name "Star," told the AP that she and Manson will be married next month.

"Y'all can know that it's true," she said. "It's going to happen." "I love him," she added. "I'm with him. There's all kinds of things."

However, as a life prisoner with no parole date, Manson is not entitled to family visits, a euphemism for conjugal visits. So why would Burton marry him under those conditions?

She said she is interested in working on his case, and marrying him would allow her to get information not available to non-relatives. "There's certain things next of kin can do," she said without elaborating.

Burton gave an interview a year ago to Rolling Stone magazine in which she said she and Manson planned to marry. But Manson, who became notorious in 1969 as the leader of a roving "family" of young killers, was less certain about tying the knot. "That's a bunch of garbage," Manson said in the December 2013 interview. "That's trash. We're playing that for public consumption." Asked Monday about those comments, Burton said, "None of that's true," adding that they're waiting for the prison to complete their paperwork.

California Department of Corrections spokeswoman Terry Thornton confirmed to the AP that the license had been transmitted to the prison. Thornton said each California prison designates an employee to be a marriage coordinator who processes paperwork for an inmate's request to be wed. In most cases, she said, the department of corrections approves of such weddings as "a tool of family reunification and social development." But Manson is a unique case. Burton said the wedding might have happened earlier if Manson did not have "some situations" at the prison.

Thornton explained that in February, Manson had three violations for possession of a weapon, threatening staff and refusal to provide a urine sample. Further details on the violations were not immediately available.

Burton said the prison holds marriages on the first Saturday of each month and she expects to be married in an inmate visiting room at the prison. Thornton confirmed that Manson can have a wedding at the prison and invite an officiate from outside the prison to perform the ceremony. Manson and his prospective spouse also would be allowed to invite 10 guests who are not inmates. He and two women followers, Leslie Van Houten and Patricia Krenwinkel, remain imprisoned. Another follower, Susan Atkins, died of cancer behind bars. Other members of the Manson "family" still behind bars are Charles "Tex" Watson, Bruce Davis and Robert Beausoleil.

Manson, Watson and the women were convicted in the gruesome killings of Tate, the wife of director Roman Polanski, and four others at her estate on Aug. 9, 1969, and grocers Leno and Rosemary LaBianca who were killed the following night. Manson is not be eligible for parole until 2027. He has been a habitual criminal and spent most of his life in prison.

True, he didn't participate in the murders. He got others to do it, he really seemed to have something about him that people were willing to follow his orders. He is guilty by ordering the murder of many people, how many of those followers are still alive in society these days & how many in jail?

Since then there have been & still are these lost souls worshipping someone in these cults as their 'leader'.

Squeaky Fromme and one other are free but out of the core of Watson, atkins, krenwinkle etc they're gonna die in nick, Susan Atkins did already, tumour.

Its worth noting yknow that they could be liars, i mean they'd have every reason to blame Charlie, they were the ones who did it.

Cant believe Squeaky is out, she even shot at President Reagan.

I didn't realise Squeaky was out either, thanks for that info. They must all be in their 70s or maybe late 60s now, I've never seen an interview with any of them but then I haven't really looked.

I couldn't live in that house or the LaBianca house knowing what had gone on there. Terrifying for those poor people who were killed.

Does he have any money? Whatever the reason, the woman is insane.

Manson is 80 years old. I can't believe that crazy MF is still alive. All the years the tax payers have paid to keep him locked up and fed and cared for. They should have just fried his ass.

The Tate Family has previously asked people to write the parole board when any of the ones that are eligible come up for it.

When Leslie Van Houten came up for parole in 2013, I wrote the parole board in protest. I'm sure my letter had nothing to do with it, but parole was denied. She wasn't directly involved with Tate's murder, but they still asked for people to write letters.

Ok in 1992 a Trent Reznor lived and recorded music in the house. Then someone else bought it and razed it & built a Villa on the property.
