Doris Day, a Day to remember

Her son, Terry Melcher, got mixed up with Charlie Manson. They was some talk of producing an album featuring Charlie. It was mostly "Hollywood" talk- everybody is 'working' on a project. Melcher used to live at the Tate home. When the Tate murders happened, there were some , who thought the murders were retribution for Melcher welching on some percieved deal with the Manson family. She and her son lived with guards for a while- well after the trial was over.
Manson made an appointment to see Terry in his office about recording some songs he'd written. After Terry ran them by some of his colleagues at his mom's production company, he sent them back with regrets. So, Manson went after him, but Terry and Candice Bergen had moved from the house where the Tate murders took place. That was the extent of Terry's getting mixed up with Charlie Manson. After that Terry and Doris both had body guards.
