[Lead Prosecutor Vincent] Bugliosi: During that period of time, primarily the summers of 1965 and ’66 and 1967, how would you describe Charles Tex Watson?
Mallett: He was always very mannerly and happy.....
Bugliosi: Would you characterize him as being somewhat carefree?
Mallett: Yes....
Bugliosi: Now, after you last saw him in August of 1966 when is the next time you saw him?
Mallett: In November of 1969....We just rode around, talked, went to the Dairy Queen and got a coke [recte: Coke].
Bugliosi: How did he look to you in November of 1969?
Mallett: He looked great, you know, he looked like he had always looked. He was a little thinner, but that’s all....
Bugliosi: What about his personality?
Mallett: Well he seemed—he seemed pretty much the same, he had a lot of new ideas and things, but other than that he seemed, you know, he seemed pretty much the same....
Bugliosi: [The next day] Did you engage in sexual intercourse with Mr. Watson at the Holiday Inn?
Mallett: Yes, sir....He was rather animalistic, I would say. I don’t know. It was strange....
Bugliosi: Did he ever talk about his experience in California...?
Mallett: Oh, he told me about a beach house that he once lived in and then mentioned that he also lived on a ranch.....
Bugliosi: Did he say with whom he lived on this ranch?
Mallett: No. He never mentioned any names of the other people he lived with....He said there were quite a few women, maybe 30 girls, and just a couple of men....He said he and one other person were the main people.
