- TriviaAl Wiman was on the scene the day the world learned of the gruesome murder scene involving actress Sharon Tate and others in their Hollywood home. Months later, when police still hadn't located the bloody clothes Charles Mansion's disciples wore during the murders, Wiman had his cameraman drive from the murder site toward the San Fernando Valley where the Manson ranch was. During the drive, he disrobed in the back of the van. At the moment he was down to his skivvies he told the driver to stop and pull over. They had arrived at a ravine where they got out, started poking around in the brush and found the clothes. He ran some extension cords out of a nearby house and rigged up a makeshift way to record the story, get it back to the station, and scoop the world.
