Not everyone deserves a second chance. Someone should tell that to the California Department of Corrections, who recently granted approval for parole to former Manson Family follower Bruce Davis. If it's any consolation, though, it doesn't look like he'll be approved for parole any time soon.

According to ABC News, Davis wasn't involved in the "infamous" Tate-LaBianca murders that ultimately put an end to the Flower Power generation. Rather, he was sentenced to prison for the 1969 murders of Gary Hinman, a musician, and "Shorty" Shea, a stuntman who was also a ranch hand. Because he wasn't involved in the Tate-Labianca murders, experts say that he's more likely to be granted parole than the participants of the more infamous killings.

Indeed, according to Fox News, if Davis is indeed granted parole, he would only be the second member of the Manson family to ever be granted parole. However, it's highly unlikely that he will ultimately be granted the parole, because he still continues to withhold details of the crime.

Davis, who has always insisted that he was "just an innocent bystander" in the crimes, became a born-again Christian, earned his master's degree, and even provided ministry services to other criminals while he's been behind bars. But California governor Jerry Brown said that all of this, while commendable, isn't enough of a reason to grant him parole (Brown has denied Davis parole in the past).

"Until Davis can acknowledge and explain why he actively championed the Family's interests and shed more light on the nature of his involvement, I am not prepared to release him," Brown said. "It is encouraging that Davis is beginning to reveal the actual details of what happened. But it is clear that he continues to withhold information about these events."

Arnold Schwarzenegger has also denied Davis parole.
