From 1974 onwards, Atkins stated she was a born-again Christian after seeing a vision of [http://real-life-heroes.wikia.com/wiki/Jesus_Christ Jesus Christ] in her cell. She became active in prison programs, teaching classes and received two commendations for assisting in emergency health interventions with other inmates, one of which was a suicide attempt. Atkins published her autobiography, ''Child of Satan, Child of God'', in 1977 in which she recounted the time she spent with Manson and the family, her religious conversion, and her prison experiences, (although she pocketed the money she made from it without a second thought for the victim's families). | From 1974 onwards, Atkins stated she was a born-again Christian after seeing a vision of [http://real-life-heroes.wikia.com/wiki/Jesus_Christ Jesus Christ] in her cell.
