Manson to marry 26-year-old fighting to exonerate him

Mass murderer Charles Manson plans to marry a 26-year-old woman who left her home and has spent the past nine years trying to help exonerate him.

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

No date has been set but a wedding co-ordinator has been assigned by the prison to handle the nuptials.
