Candy, Married To A Cult Leader

In September 1959, when Charles was facing a charge for his attempt to cash a U.S. Treasury check, he was defended by Candy. She claimed to be in love with Charles and pleaded the court to release him. This particular action led Charles to receive the 10-years suspended sentence from the jury. After he got released from the jail, he and Candy had their wedding in the same year.

After they married in 1959, his love shunned. Their tie did not last long, and they split up in 1963. Meanwhile, in April 1963, Candy gave birth to their child.

After his breakup with his second wife Candy, Charles was sent back to jail. However, it was not the first marriage for the ringleader of the Mansion Family cult.
