Charles Manson’s fiancée wanted to marry him for his corpse

[sprite75]

The wedding of the century between Charles Manson and a much younger woman appears to be off.

Manson's fiancée, 27-year-old Afton Elaine Burton, known as Star, sought to wed the convicted mastermind of the Sharon Tate murder and eight other slayings so that she could gain possession of his corpse, according to journalist Daniel Simone.

Burton and a pal, Craig Hammond, planned to lay out Manson's remains in a glass crypt, Simone says. The pair figured their bizarre California version of Lenin's Tomb would draw huge crowds and make big money.

But Manson, 80, does not want to marry Burton and has no interest in spending eternity displayed in a glass coffin, Simone told The Post. "He's finally realized that he's been played for a fool," Simone said.

Another reason the madman balked at the plan is because he believes he is immortal. "He feels he will never die," Simone said. "Therefore, he feels it's a stupid idea to begin with."

Well yeah, I can see why he wouldn't want to be played for a fool.

Someone wanted to marry him for his body? I bet that made him feel like a twenty-year-old blonde.
