Living Room Tate Murderers. On Watson's direction, Atkins found the house's three other occupants and, with Krenwinkel's help, forced them to the living room. Watson began to tie Tate and Sebring together by their necks with rope he had brought and slung up over one of the living room's ceiling beams. The Tate–LaBianca murders were perpetrated by members of the Manson Family in Los Angeles, California who murdered five people on August 9–10, 1969, and two more the following evening. On the night of August 8–9, four members of the Manson Family invaded the rented home of actress Sharon Tate and movie director Roman Polanski at 10050.

On Watson's direction, Atkins found the house's three other occupants and, with Krenwinkel's help, forced them to the living room. Watson began to tie Tate and Sebring together by their necks with rope he had brought and slung up over one of the living room's ceiling beams. The Tate-LaBianca murders, which claimed the lives of Sharon Tate and six others, are a gruesome crime inextricably linked to Charles Manson and the end of the 1960s. In the early hours of August 9, 1969, Tate, the pregnant wife of director Roman Polanski, and her friends became the victims of the Manson Family, a cult lead by the depraved and desperate Manson. After dining together at the El Coyote restaurant, Sharon Tate, celebrity hairstylist Jay Sebring, Folger coffee heiress Abigail Folger and her lover Wojciech Frykowski, returned to the Polanski's home on Cleo Drive at around 10:30 p.m. Wojciech fell asleep on the living room couch, Abigail Folger went to her bedroom to read, and Sharon Tate and Sebring were in Sharon's bedroom talking.
The next morning, Tate’s housekeeper Winifred Chapman arrived at the house and noticed the telephone wires had been cut. She entered the house to alert someone but instead came across a grisly bloodbath in the living room. Fleeing from the murder scene, she noticed two more bodies on the lawn and another body in a car on the driveway.

Some aspects of the slayings were similar to those in the murders of actress Sharon Tate and four others in the city’s Bel-Air district 10 miles to the west.

Inside the Tate house, the group rounded up Tate, Sebring, Frykowski and Folger, and brought them into the living room. Sebring and Tate had ropes tied around their necks. Watson began to tie Tate and Sebring together by their necks with rope which he had brought, and he slung it over one of the living room's ceiling beams. Sebring protested the murderers' rough treatment of the pregnant Tate, so Watson shot him. Folger was taken momentarily back to her bedroom for her purse, and she gave the murderers $70.
