Patricia Krenwinkel, a former follower of Charles Manson, was granted parole on Tuesday after nearly six decades in prison for her role in the 1969 Tate-LaBianca murders in Los Angeles, according to The Guardian.
This marks the third time Krenwinkel, 78, has been approved for release by California's board of parole hearings, The Guardian reported.
After her previous two parole grants, California Governor Gavin Newsom reversed the parole board's decisions and denied her release. Krenwinkel's attorneys are now urging Newsom to allow this latest ruling to stand, according to the report.
The report did not specify a timeline for the governor's review of this latest parole decision, or additional detail on the parole board's reasoning in this instance.
