sapped mer in the stomach because I saw her grab down there, Then Tex went back outside, because the other man was on the lawn, still running and calling for help, tag proceeded to continue I still must have had the headlock on Sharon when Tex came back. And he told me it looked like she wanted to sit down. So I took her over and sat her down on the couch. She said: "All I want to do is have my baby." I knew I had to say something to her before she got hysterical. And while I was talking to her, I knew everything I was saying—I was saying to myself. I wasn't talking to her, but myself. "Woman, I have no mercy for you," I told her, and that was myself talking only to me. Then the Folger girl started staggering outside, and Tex and Katie went after her. But I'm not sure that Katie went outside, either. I just stayed there with Sharon. She was so quiet. And Tex came back in and said: "Kill her." Just like that, he said "Kill her." Then Katie, like an echo, said: "Kill her." I reached to grab hold of Sharon's And then Sharon went through a few “changes,” quite a few “changes.” | mean her facial expressions. Wow! arms, but I didn't want to kill her. I held onto her arms, and said: "Tex, I can't kill her. I've got her arms. You do it." Katie couldn't kill her, either. So Tex stabbed her-—in the heart. And again, and again. I threw another towel over Sha- ron's head. I think it could have fallen over Jay Sebring's head, too. I didn't even look—I just threw it. But Sharon Tate was lying curled up near the couch and his and her heads probably were close together. "Get out," Tex yelled. Justlike, he How Jong were we in there *@ime2.. Who ‘Thows time? Five minutes? Twenty minutes? Time has no meaning. (Police estimate the slay- ers spent about 25 minutes inside the mansion.) Look for Linda After Tex yelled, we, Katie and I, went running outside looking for Linda because we couldn't see her, but we didn't yell too loud for fear of being heard by neighbors. When Tex came out, I said: "Tex, do you have my knife?" He said no. I asked Katie: "Do you have my knife?" She said no, and the paranoia got big and I tried to shush it by saying to myself: "Linda must have my knife. I think I gave it to her." Then Tex ordered me: "Sadie. (She was sometimes known to members of the group as Sadie Glutz.) Go back and write something on the door." I didn't want to go back into that house. I didn't want to go back but something made me. I got the towel that I had tied the man's hands with, and I went over to Sharon Tate. And I flashed. Wow, there's a living being in there. I wanted to, but I couldn't bring myself to cut “hemenen and take the baby.--kney, it was jiving, I knew it wouldn't live... “ace, And I reached down and turned my head away from her. Then I touched her chest with the towel to get some blood and I proceeded to go to the door and the only thing I remember being instructed to write on the door by Tex was "Pig." So I proceeded to take my hand and write "Pig" with the towel and I threw the towel back into the house and ran outside. I was the last to leave the house. I ran to the front gate. Tex and Katie already were standing on the other side. Then, the next thing I knew, I was standing there, too. We walked toward the car, but we couldn't see Linda. We thought she had disappeared. We didn't know where she was. We called for her. But not too loudly. Charlie—I guess through Tex— had instructed us to go to. the neighbors' house and do the same what we had done in the nlace we just left. 't Go Through Wit, We went to push the button that opens the neighbors’ gate, Tex pushed the button but I don't think he used his fingers. I think he used his arm or something. I just can't tell why we didn't go through with it. I can't see it now, can't flash it into my mind. But we picked up our clothes which we had stashed by the gate— we knelt down and picked up our second change of clothes. Then we walked down the road to where the car was, walked not too conspicuous. And when we got to the car there was Linda in it already, with her second clothes. She had begun to. start the car, and Tex told her to get over.

I've got a picture in my mind and all it shows me is the side of a mountain and a road. I just sat in the back seat, slumped down. I don't remember where we were— and I didn't pay any attention.
