A messy dispute over the remains of Charles Manson is currently keeping his body on ice, according to Fox News in "Fight for Charles Manson's body is a 'circus,' county attorney says."
At least five people have come forward claiming the right to Manson's remains and his estate.
Two of them were pen pals of his. One claims to have a will making him Manson's sole heir and one of the claimants is Manson's grandson. It is not clear what relation the other two people have to Manson.
The infamous cult leader and mass murder mastermind remained a subject of fascination until he died. A few people were even in awe of the notorious criminal.
Officials are not certain what court has jurisdiction to determine who should be given possession of the remains and to determine who should get Manson's estate.
Until this matter gets settled, officials are required to preserve Manson's remains.
