Charles Manson ‘in bad shape’ in prison hospital with intestinal bleeding amid fears he could die any day
CHARLES Manson is back in prison in California as it emerges he may not survive his current health crisis.
The mass murderer was transferred to Bakersfield hospital a week ago after suffering significant intestinal bleeding.
Manson refused surgery which was recommended by doctors, but late last night he changed his mind.
But medics determined he was too weak to survive the surgery, going back and forth several times and eventually cancelling the surgery, reports.
A source close to the 82-year-old killer's situation told the gossip site: "He's not good. His health is failing."

Officials will not allow fiancée Afton “Star” Burton, 27, to obtain sperm from the maniac, 82.
He is too frail for stomach surgery and sources put his survival odds at 50-50.
A source said: “No matter what happens to Manson, none of his family are getting access to his DNA at this stage.
“The officers and authorities will not let them get access to tissues or any fluids at all.
"He may be in hospital, but he is still considered to be under maximum security protection.
“Just because he may pass away does not affect that position."
The deranged fanatic, who masterminded the killings of seven people in 1969, has been cited for assault, making voodoo dolls and hiding a hot air balloon order catalogue in his cell.
During his trial in 1971, Manson punched his lawyer in the face and threatened “murder and bloodshed” if he received the death penalty.
