Dictate Express
228
8 sex. What did she do? Had premarital sex with Bobby
13 from home. Same argument. She told the Pa nel that she
Dictate Express
229
15 she can be seen to have had her own free will when she
21 that (A) she knew what she was doing was wrong, (B) she
22 knew what she was doing was against the law, and (C) she
Dictate Express
230
1 goes to show -- and these are her own words in 1977 upon
6 behalf, her answers were not what she did, but what
7 Manson did. Well, um, you know, why -- why did you say
13 crime was closer in time. Now, when the Panel asked her
14 about her drug usage and how she would refrain from her
24 Well, how did she get herself into this mess? Because
Dictate Express
231
2 examples that she gave you were all about pleasing other
4 Well, she wants to work with Iraqi vets. And if you saw
14 don’t have the exact page of the C -file, but it was the
Dictate Express
232
21 that during the ride over there that she was falling in
Dictate Express
233
2 about what she knew. She knew she was going there to
9 her to say that -- well, you know, I fell asleep off and
19 that, you know, she fel t she couldn’t do it, and that’s
20 why she called Tex Watson in, and she was critical of
22 and she had to look away into the den. But her
Dictate Express
234
14 Wraps the lamp cord around her mouth -- around her neck
Dictate Express
235
3 she does have some insight. When she stopped, she began
9 that she was one of the people in the house. And the
23 leave, you may as well jump off the cliff because you’ll
Dictate Express
236
18 hearing that people came and went. There were some core
Dictate Express
237
1 the -- the Panel does not rely solely upon these risk
5 factor, and they said she had insight and that she, you
11 that she had insight and that she was a low risk for --
24 has shown that she has done things that, um, are
Dictate Express
238
9 suitability.
Dictate Express
239
5 marijuana, she got pregnant, got into LSD, and ran away
10 than they are at 19, and as the Panel pointed out that
23 using drugs. She got pregnant. Um, uh, but you grow
Dictate Express
240
22 retry the case. Same should go true for the other side.
23 She knew it was wrong, she knew it was against the law,
Dictate Express
241
Dictate Express
242
11 it, and when -- it’s guilt and feeling sorry for what
25 Share came in, and she testified that no, she was not
Dictate Express
243
6 here’s what I want you to do. Will you tie her up, drag
7 her behind your car slow ? Don’t kill her. Make sure
8 she survives, but drag her all the way back to the
14 that still had value to Manson were not free to go. The
18 that Miss Van Houten thought she wasn’t, and she quickly
22 recognize them, fix them, and that’s what she did with
Dictate Express
244
9 they would -- um, they said that our whole theory of the
22 Coburn, who says she passes the test where she can live

Dictate Express
250
6 and the people whose lives she changed know her, and
12 Never get out. And they don’t know the facts of the
16 ask that when you start to look at numbers, put into the
19 the facts? Very few. But there’ s some. And -- and the
20 ones that actually sound like they know what’s going on,
21 give them the dulate. But the ones who are just signing
Dictate Express
251
1 grant her parole. I’m asking that you follow the law.
2 I’m asking that if you do and you grant her parole that
16 for the questions that you asked, and, um, things for me
18 those in the room and those that are not for the damage
21 And, um, I just hope that I was able to convey the truth
Dictate Express

9 please state your full name , spell your last, and your
23 what they did and how they destroyed families and loved
25 Miss Van Houte n and her cohorts, uh, came into the
Dictate Express
253
2 people they did not even know just to start a race war.
12 that is what the law allows us. Um, Miss Van Houten --
13 Houten is abusing the very laws that she and the Manson
18 and to this day, um, she was not one -- she has not
21 Leno were already dead when she stabbed them. Uh, but
22 forgets to mention that she was angry that she was not
25 today -- you know, um, she had exact memory of how long
Dictate Express
254
11 all about Leslie and not the victims. She is the poster
Dictate Express
255
1 her and getting out and being free. She was given the
8 too good for Leslie Van Houten. She needs to pay for
14 years. Her deeds speak much louder than, uh, her or her
Dictate Express
256
3 agot -- again deny, uh, Miss Van Houten, uh, parole, uh,
15 know, there were other people that did not. You click
23 all the time that state that people are still afraid.

Dictate Express
258
Dictate Express

12 of it.
18 opined briefly what your case was about. Um, that was
19 helpful. Um, and they outlined that your cas e was about
Dictate Express
280
12 that. You’ve been very open about how the first three
Dictate Express
281
4 who -- your life before the Life Crime, you r growing up,
15 why you were who you were then and then who we’ve got
Dictate Express
282
Dictate Express

10 he got to and where they got to, uh, and, uh, today we
Dictate Express
284
5 did we not?
15 report.
Dictate Express
285
Dictate Express
286
Dictate Express
287
5 decision does not dimi nish the fact that the crimes
10 you -- the key question for me was -- you went into that
13 those people. That was the plan. Um, and you accepted
20 and, uh, our -- our hearts to out to them. But, um, you
23 that today as, uh, Tex was for stabbing the others, and
Dictate Express
288
2 other murders.
9 believe directly of, uh, Leno. And this was all about
21 father’s place who loved you and you loved him, uh, to
Dictate Express
289
Dictate Express
290
20 of somewhat like mind, but who also were using drugs and
21 used drugs then, and you got exposed to drugs and -- and
22 used drugs. Uh, and you were antisocial. And that just
Dictate Express
291
23 Life Crime and -- and just before, uh, the Panel has the
Dictate Express
292
Dictate Express
293
22 probably not till you were standing there and this had
Dictate Express
294
2 youth, and you got great weight for that. Then we had
21 after that, 23, 24, um, you started to become, you know
Dictate Express
295
15 that you would need to abate, uh, the key issues that
16 were, um, at the core of why you became the person you
Dictate Express
296
3 that abate the core issues, uh, that were with you, uh,
Dictate Express
297
6 you had remorse. You know, that’s just not good enough
12 gave you one, and one I kind of put into senses that we
20 um, beyond just the -- the two murders you were directly
24 say, um, over the years. And you heard one of the
Dictate Express
298
9 The last Panel didn’t get that. Um, and our sense was
Dictate Express
299
17 act for the Board. But some people hear that and they
18 think they wrong thing, and that group has worked pretty
Dictate Express
300
4 with you. We didn’t get the sense this was a overt need
18 have job offers. Um, you had skill sets when you came
23 writing and so forth. Um, and you did have job offers.
24 So the code says you have to have job offers or you have
Dictate Express
301
10 the 2nd, 2016, before the last hearing. The doctor did
23 talked to you and know about the crime. It’s not like
24 any of this is, you know, unheard of. Um, and all of
Dictate Express
302
6 to add?
16 it.
20 with over the course of working with the Board, they are
Dictate Express
303
2 to change.
24 determined your, uh, term, uh, and that was done I think
Dictate Express
304
3 That’s your base term. Um, we note that you have served
Dictate Express
305
10 credit. And your term was 180 months. So, um, what’s
Dictate Express
306
24 back in society.
Dictate Express
307
20 agent.
Dictate Express
308
1 weighing off and then maybe not for a while, okay? All
2 right? We’d order that you not have any contact with
5 that you have not mailed them letters, and for the
19 back --
24 requests --
Dictate Express
309
