Manson died age 83, he only spent about 15 or less of those years not incarcerated.
That's the first time I've heard of any connection between Clyde McKay & Alvin Glatowski and Manson. I can see it was reported in a few papers at the time, but I don't believe there's much substance to it. They two of them made all sorts of wild statements at the time, Glatowski was confined to a mental hospital in Takmau for a while. Clyde McKay went off to join the Khmer Rouge and was never seen again. There's a good book about them, I'm not sure there is any mention on Manson in it though. They were more into Che Guevara and Castro.kinard wrote: 2 Manson followers jailed in Cambodia for ship-jacking, Aug, 1970 Link
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
More than likely the case, them making wild claims and mentioning Manson while talking to journos who visited them on the 'prison' boat.
Fascinating story.

It is. There was a prison ship at Chroy Changva Naval Base, there are a couple of pictures of it in the book, the other one is a much wider view.kinard wrote:More than likely the case, them making wild claims and mentioning Manson while talking to journos who visited them on the 'prison' boat.

McKay & Glatowski in front of the prison ship. They look like they would have fitted in with the Manson Family.

MCKay hooked up with another deserter he, Larry Humphrey.They gave their guards the slip while having lunch at Psah Thmei by climbing out the toilet window! There were a few sightings of them compiled by US MIA/POW intelligence in Kampong Cham after they escaped from Phnom Penh in October 1970.
Apparently they were given shelter by the village chief in the hamlet of Anlung Thma. This was an area where KR kept South Vietnamese prisoners,but unlike those prisoners they were not tied up and didn't have to live at the POW camp. They were eventually taken from there on June 14th 1973.
There was a sighting of them in Sangke Kaong in July 1974 reported by an NLF defector.
There are other reports that they were arrested in 1971 after creating problems with the revolutionaries. They at first asked for black clothes and paid for them, which wasn't a problem. Then they wanted arms, which was. They protested, went on hunger strike and then started fighting. Then they were shot. This source says they were buried at Bei Met.

It was all a great story wasn't it. I went to that village in the rubber plantation where Flynn and his mate were allegedly kept. The old lady who looked after them talked of the tall guy liking a smoke, it must have been Mckay.
One morning she went to work and when she came back they had been taken away and killed. It was a place often visited by Flynn hunters including the Army hoping for mum's reward coming with excavators way back in the day, then Tim Page. He claimed to feel Flynn's presence but that was probably after a big pipe. Then the Pommie bloke from Sihanoukville with an excavator, he claimed to have found teeth of bone fragments buy they weren't Flynn's of course.
I wonder what the truth was with the hijacking story, none of it made much sense.

Never heard of this (the mutinies) but very fascinating indeed. A bit more about it here:
