Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme is the woman who pointed a gun at President Gerald Ford in Sacramento in 1975. Before that, she was the Charles Manson follower who served as the media face of the Manson "family" outside the Los Angeles trials where Manson and others were convicted for the 1969 Sharon Tate murders. She lived at the Spahn Ranch in Santa Susana Pass with other young women who adored Manson, but was not in the group that invaded the Tate residence in Benedict Canyon 40 years ago this month. Fromme, now 60, was released today on parole from a federal medical center in Fort Worth, Texas.
