Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of Mr. Bugliosi's passing. I first read Helter Skelter when it first came out. I was transfixed with the whole story. Moving to Simi Valley in 1968-69 we drove the Santa Susana Pass Road and drove past the ranch where they lived. Such a tragic horrible story. God Bless Mr. Bugliosi and his quest for justice.

Vince and I had over a 10-year correspondence. He wrote to me basically on his death bed to say goodbye. I'm remembering him on the anniversary of his death. Will miss him forever

First read Helter Skelter as a teen when the book first came out. Loved it then, a fascinating read. Bought it again recently after watching a special on the Manson Family and loved it even more. Was so sad to hear of Mr. Bugliosi´s passing. He was quite the man.

much admiration and respect

Vincent Bugliosi was one of the most brilliant jurists to ever live.

Remembering Vince on the anniversary of his birthday. Never to be forgotten.

I just found out tonight watching Dateline that Vincent had left us. I am so sorry,I didn't know. I read Helter Skelter in high school and couldn't put it down. I really admired Mr. Bugliosi,valued his opinions on every major crime and its coverage. The world has lost a great man and a great legal mind. To his family; your husband and father was an extraordinary human being and I am so so sorry for your loss
