Charles Denton “Tex “Watson – Charlie Manson’s Right-Hand Man
And, rightly so.
Charles Denton “Tex” Watson, one of the chief participants in the Manson Family murders in the summer of 1969, will stay in prison at least another five years, the California Board of Parole Hearings announced Wednesday.
Watson, 65, was denied parole for the 16th time, the board said, and will not be considered again until 2016.
Watson, along with Susan Atkins, Patricia Krenwinkel and Linda Kasabian were convicted in 1971 of murder and sentenced to death for the killings of five people, including the eight-months pregnant movie actress Sharon Tate, on the night of August 9, 1969. They and their leader, Charles Manson, were convicted and sentenced for stabbing Leno and Rosemary La Bianca to death the night after the Tate killings.
Sharon Tate “Tex” Watson who is known as Charlie Manson’s right-hand man physically committed the murders at the homes of Sharon Tate and Leno and Rosemary LaBianca. Susan Atkins was present with Watson at both murder scenes. Atkins died in prison in 2009.
Charles Manson follower Patricia Krenwinkel also a Tate/La Bianca murder accomplice remains in prison and was denied parole earlier this year. Leslie Van Houten also remains in California prison.
Linda Kasabian, who also was present at both murder scenes was granted immunity from prosecution in exchange for testifying against Manson and his family of followers.
Watson was convicted in 1971 of seven counts of murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder.
He will be considered for another parole review in five years, prison officials said.
Family members of Watson’s murder victims attended the hearing on Wednesday at Mule Creek State Prison in rural Ione, California, where he is held on a sentence of life with the possibility of parole, said Terry Thornton, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
Charles Denton “Tex” Watson should have been executed decades ago along with Charles Manson and the rest of his scumbag followers. It is only because of the California Supreme Court’s decision, People V. Anderson that outlawed the death penalty (for a time) that saved his sorry ass from the gas chamber.
Like Susan Atkins, Watson should NEVER be released and should die in prison. Here is one of the murder scene photos (Sharon Tate lies in her own blood):
Charles Manson’s next parole hearing may be coming up in 2012.

The convicted murderer Charles Manson who has plenty of time on his hands has become a political pundit and weighs in on President Obama.
Billionaire Donald Trump recently proclaimed he is the Democrats’ worst nightmare, but it’s hard to imagining someone more frightening than Charles Manson ending a 20-year silence to call you out.
The 76-year-old spoke recently to Spain’s Vanity Fair magazine on the 40th anniversary of his conviction in the Sharon Tate and LaBianca murders.
President Barack Obama is “a slave of Wall Street,” the diminutive cult leader said by telephone from Corcoran State Prison to journalist David Lopez.
“He doesn’t realize what they are doing. They are playing with him,” Manson said of Obama. The president recently was being petitioned by Manson’s lawyer, Giovanni Di Stefano, to free the iconic killer, who has been incarcerated since 1969. That request was refused.
Manson has always been the one for gaining attention.
Now, he is playing the “crazy” card. But, Charley, you ain’t getting out of prison. Tags: Barack Obama, Charles Manson

 Charles Manson described himself as a ‘bad man who shoots people’ in a rambling phone interview from his Californian jail cell. He also spoke in Spanish to say of himself – ‘La Hierba Mala No Muere’ – English for ‘Weeds never die.’
This criminal should have been executed years ago but thanks to the left-wing courts, he is ranting from a California prison and his victims are long dead. So, now he speaks about global warming – WTF?
Crazed cult leader Charles Manson has broken a 20-year silence in a prison interview coinciding with the 40th anniversary of his conviction for the gruesome Sharon Tate murders – to speak out about global warming.
The infamous killer, who started championing environmental causes from behind bars, bemoaned the ‘bad things’ being done to environment in a rambling phone interview from his Californian jail cell.
‘Everyone’s God and if we don’t wake up to that there’s going to be no weather because our polar caps are melting because we’re doing bad things to the atmosphere.
‘If we don’t change that as rapidly as I’m speaking to you now, if we don’t put the green back on the planet and put the trees back that we’ve butchered, if we don’t go to war against the problem…’ he added, trailing off.
Manson, who described himself to his interviewer as a ‘bad man who shoots people’, brainwashed members of a commune known as The Family into butchering eight people including film director Roman Polanski’s pregnant wife Sharon Tate in July and August 1969.
Speaking to Vanity Fair Spain magazine of the killing spree he led his crazed disciples on, the 76-year-old said: ‘I live in the underworld. I don’t tell people what to do. They know what to do.
‘If they don’t know what to do they don’t come around me because I’m very mean, I’m very mean.’
Interspersing English with Spanish, he added: ‘I’m very mal hombre, nasty.
‘I’m in the bullring. I run in the bullring with the heart of the world.’
‘I don’t play. I shoot people.
‘I’m too bad. I’m a mean guy. I’m an outlaw. I’m a criminal. I’m everything bad.’
Here is the murder scene photo of Sharon Tate.
Here was Sharon Tate.
Actress Sharon Tate, pictured here at London Airport, was murdered in August 1969
And, what about the global warming?
He is a founder of ATWA (which both stands for Air Trees Water Animals and All The Way Alive). It’s typically manic mission statement warns of the destruction of the planet from pollution.
Another ATWA founder, Lynette Fromme, was jailed for the attempted assassination of President Gerald Ford with an unloaded gun in 1975. The claimed she did so ‘for the redwoods’.
On the environment, Manson said: ‘Sooner or later the will of God will prevail over all of you. And I was condemned as the will of God.’
‘We are all martyrs. Love is a martyr… I am a martyr. But I am also a victim. And I’m a performer. And a dam. I’m both. I am everything. I am nothing.’
I would like to know how Charles Manson received access to a phone in the first place. He had been busted before for having an illegal cell phone in his prison cell. Did he cheat the system again?
And, what kind of game is Manson playing? Playing the criminally insane to get out of Corcoran State Prison?
Does Charley REALLY think California will EVER let him out of prison?
Rot in prison, Manson, and rot in hell when you die.

Convicted murderer and former Charles Manson family member, Susan Atkins (C), lies on a moveable bed beside her husband and attorney James Whitehouse (R) as she recites the 23rd Psalm as her statement during her parole hearing at the Central California Women’s Facility in Chowchilla, California September 2, 2009. Atkins was again denied parole, remaining the longest-incarcerated female inmate in the California penal system
Charles Manosn follower and murderer Susan Atkins was again denied parole.
Susan Atkins, the terminally ill Charles Manson follower who admitted stabbing actress Sharon Tate 40 years ago, lost what was likely to be her last bid for freedom Wednesday.
Atkins, who suffers from brain cancer, slept through most of the four-hour hearing during which her husband-lawyer pleaded for her release and families of victims of the Sharon Tate-Labianca killings urged that she be kept behind bars until she dies.
In a dramatic moment — one of the few in which Atkins opened her eyes — Atkins’ husband, James Whitehouse, led her through a recitation of the 23rd Psalm, with Atkins concluding in a strong voice, “My God is an amazing God.”
Debra Tate, sister of the actress who was 8 1/2 months pregnant when she was killed, told the parole commissioners that she would have a 40-year-old nephew if her sister had lived. She said of Atkins, “I will pray for her soul when she draws her last breath, but until then I think she should remain in this controlled situation.”
Another of the speakers was Anthony DiMaria, a nephew of the slain Jay Sebring, who said that the trips to the parole hearing for his family members “send us back to hell year after year.”
“I’m not here for Susan Atkins,” he said. “I’m here for Jay Sebring. The only hatred I feel is for the crime.”
DiMaria reacted angrily to a suggestion by Whitehouse that the commissioners should consider the cost to the state of housing Atkins at a time when she requires constant medical care. Whitehouse said it was costing $17,000 a month for her care.
“We are not here to balance the state budget,” DiMaria said. “We are here because Susan Atkins sent nine people to their death.”
Justice again was served. Susan Atkins SHOULD serve the rest of her life in prison.
Just as a reminder as to what SHE did:
Remember Susan Atkins famously told a sobbing and begging Sharon Tate prior to her murder and mutilation, “Look bitch, I have no mercy for you.â€

This undated file handout photo provided by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shows Susan Atkins. Atkins was expected to succumb to brain cancer months ago, but the former Charles Manson follower imprisoned for killing actress Sharon Tate nearly four decades ago still clings to life. Now, a hearing that is perhaps her last chance at freedom has been abruptly put off until September 2, 2009
