LA 76-2512 had to leave my wife alone and that leaves my wife making only $38 a week if she doesn't work on Saturday. She makes a $1,10 an hour. There's about $12, $13, $15 in the baby sitter. She has to ride back and forth to work with an old couple so that's another Three Dollars. And then we have our own furniture and trying to hoid on to it. She just can't keep an apartment and take care of the child with $38 a week. And I don't knowwhat good I thought I was going to do with me going out there. I was just making things worse. I never stop to think, I just got disgusted, I think and decided to go. That's what I done." Mr. MOSELEY: "Where you planning on going up to MANSON ¢ Los Angeles?” "Sure. There would be no sense in me running off if I didn't see my wife. I thought I could get there before they missed me, maybe. I don't know what I was thinking, to be honest with you. It's just another one of those old recurrences. I've been doing this sort of thing for so long that I'm beginning to get used to it. But I've done it now, and it's all over. The consequences is all on me." Mr. MOSELEY: "You knew that." MANSON: "Before I started, I knew." Mr. MOSELEY: "At least we don't have you for a MANSON: stolen car, do we?" “I'm sure glad." On Aprii 10, 1957, Associate Warden ROBERT I. MOSELEY and SA ISADORE H. MANN (A} made an inspection of the north fence of the United States Coast Guard, Terminal Island, California, and noted that this fence had been cut approxi- mately two and one-haif feet high and two and one-half feet on the bottom. This hole in the fence was photographed and the photographs are being made a part of this file. Portions of the cuttings from the wire fence found on the ground at the location of the hole have been obtained, as well as one strand of wire obtained from the fence. -6-
