Also the same day C.S. Lewis and Aldous Huxley died.

Murderer Robert Stroud, the Birdman of Alcatraz, died the night before. He liked to tell people that when he died it would be front page news. But by the time his death was announced, no one cared.

Weird that the CIA would cram all of that into a single day.

The Beach Boys 1969 album 20/20 has songs written by not one, not even two, but three convicted killers:

Phil Spector
Lead Belly
Charles Manson (uncredited co-writer)

He probably killed some black biker drug dealer according to Vincent Bugliosi. He was never charged because it was never confirmed but it most likely happened.
