Ford – ‘If I had wanted to kill the man, he’d be dead’     FROMME LYNETTE: (1948-     ) American Criminal, a member of the infamous Manson Family who was imprisoned for her attempted assassination of American President Gerald R. Ford in 1975. An extraordinary, lengthy A.L., unsigned (although 'signed' L. Squeaky F. within the text), eight pages, 4to, n.p., 13 th October n.y., to Charles Manson ( 'Dear Charlie' ). Fromme writes to her friend following her appearance in a two-part television interview and states, in part, 'It wasn't bad at all. It was good. The next one of course may be. But this one I just talked about little life things and said well life & death merge in the universe when he asked about death - and after it was over they called me a scary little girl. And she seems so right & how could her values be distorted so much. I said where's Jerry Rubin after he told all the kids to kill their parents? Everyone shouted for Revolution - I made a fist (& this is what I was scared about) & said “Revolution was in the Tate house. Revolution is dead babies everywhere”. That could easily be misunderstood as we wanted that even tho if any one had eyes, I was starting to cry. The last thing I said in this part (he cut it) was: I want Manson heard. I was shot up from below. I look pale & a little fat around the cheeks & tired eyes - but not all that bad. Another thing I was wondering - I was still wearing my red hat. I do now not as often because I need a pin for it but is that alright? I don't know why I said the fist was in the Tate house & everybody ran from it. One finger was in the Tate house. I sure am relieved…..I guess you & Blue were right…..On the change of colors - I've still been red. I didn't want to give up green…..The news commentators, by the way, after interview said “Well it's surely something to make you question”. Tomorrow's will be all the bad stuff - the stuff about family show killing an old movie & us being like predators and that the Tate murder was “perfect”. That really upset the guy & rather than telling about the killing of earth I just said it needs to be explained by the whole family and I threw it back on family again because I felt it was too much at the time…..Today I was answering his questions about the past & he wanted to know how I feel now about what I've done. And I could've said all kinds of good things but I laughed & said “What have I done?” And he said about Pres [ident Ford] & I said I'll tell you this - If I had wanted to kill the man, he'd be dead. Then he asked if I regretted anything in my life & if I'd do the same if I had it to do over. I said that I'd be on the corner of Temple & Broadway. Does that tell people/kids to go there? I wasn't on top of my thoughts……And the worst part is when my mind was spinning to find some words to say much in a short time & he asked - do you ever doubt - and w/o a thought I answered “Oh I've had doubts all my life but….” & suddenly I snapped…..& I said oh no - & then he asked me the question again & I said “ I know blab la bla”……Also I had big photos of you on my locker beside redwood trees and whales……And later he asked if I thought I was crazy & I said what kind of insane mind would create a giraffe & he didn't understand. And he asked if others here thought I was crazy and I could've said good things but I said no. And I said I don't care what they think. I was just told that Rolling Stone magazine has a hold of a manuscript I wrote about ranch and is asking my approval to publish…..I have had thoughts of both Rolling Stone & someone trying to sell portions of my book - just this week. And since I've been working on Ranch portion - especially - I may just go that way w/ stipulation I can make a book…..I got a letter from you today and I'm so happy to get this motion picture. The ones we had I don't have here. This is beautiful……I saw the second part of interview today, it wasn't bad. I forget the last thing they showed but when I said I respected respect & my family they showed film of us on the corner and with bald heads. Some not so good shots of you. But also the picture of you on locker with long hair & beard. I think the last thing I said today was people judge themselves. They mentioned the people's court today too. And showed film pictures of Blue…..I told B to get her tapes out - the ones she got 15 years for. They're good. The T.V. guy said for people to look & see if they can see what's going on in the unpredictable illogical mind of L. Squeaky F - I tried to change the name but didn't succeed…..The guy said - I can't see how all the life you're talking about has anything to do w/ murder - I don't understand…and I said - well let's find out.
