I worked at Atascadero State Hospital during the time Tex Watson was incarcerated there. I know more about his family history than most people who have made it a point to discover.
Watson's family was extremely enabling. They attempted to block the extradition to prevent him from standing trial.
The other day ...on some cable type channel...I watched an old documentary drama of Tex & the others.
He seemed to have come from an ordinary home....(in stark contrast to Charlie Manson)....
..and I wondered how in the world did he get on that path in life.
You probably have more insight than most!
I also wondered if he still gets conjugal visits...(I know he has 3 children, at least)...
..and if you believe he is now the strong Christian he claims to be)
Do you think he, or any of the others, will ever get out of prison?
