CHINO, Calif.—The youngest follower of murderous cult leader Charles Manson will again ask a state panel to recommend her for parole.

Leslie Van Houten, 69 and serving a life term, is scheduled for a parole hearing at the California Institute for Women on Jan. 30. She was twice recommended for parole by a state panel, the last time in 2017, and her lawyer expects a similar decision this time.
