Who Is Robert Peasley?
Linda married Robert Peasley when she was only sixteen years old. The couple divorced and she married again to Robert Kasabian. Linda and Robert had a daughter named Tanya in 1968. The two split up but reconnected when Robert invited Linda to come out to California.
They had a second child together, and Robert Kasabian left for South America. Shortly thereafter, Linda Kasabian fell in with the hippie counter-culture movement and relocated to a commune out at Spahn Ranch in Death Valley.
It was there that she met Charles Manson – a cult leader whose charisma enabled him to seduce various youths into following his every command and desire. Through Melton, she met Catherine Share, who told Kasabian about an idyllic ranch outside Los Angeles where a group of hippies was establishing a “hole in the earth”.
