Jaycee Lee Dugard, who was 11 in 1991 when she was snatched from her school bus stop, was locked away from the outside world behind a series of fences, sheds and tents in the back of a suburban home, police said.

Her abductor, investigators said, raped her for years and fathered two children with her, the first when Jaycee was about 14. Those children, both girls now 11 and 15, also were kept hidden away in the backyard compound.


"None of the children have ever been to school, they've never been to a doctor," El Dorado County Undersheriff Fred Kollar said. "They were kept in complete isolation in this compound."

Convicted sex offender Phillip Garrido, 58, was charged with various kidnapping and sex charges. His wife was also arrested, and authorities said she was with Garrido during the kidnapping in South Lake Tahoe.

Garrido told NBC station KCRA of Sacramento in a telephone interview Thursday from jail that he has turned his life around.

"Wait until you hear the story of what took place at this house," he said. "You are going to be completely impressed. It's a disgusting thing that took place with me at the beginning. But I turned my life completely around and to be able to understand that, you have to start there."

He added: If you take this a step at a time you're going to fall over backwards and in the end, you're going to find the most powerful heart-warming story."

WHAT THE FUCK

But neighbors said there were clues. Diane Doty said she could see the tents and often heard children playing in the backyard, the corner of which abuts her own backyard. She said she even suspected the children lived in the tents, but her husband said she should leave the family alone.

"I asked my husband, 'Why is he living in tents?'" she said. "And he said, 'Maybe that is how they like to live.'"

 

People who knew Garrido said he became increasingly fanatic about his religious beliefs in recent years, sometimes breaking out into song and claiming that God spoke to him through a box.

"I don't think they realized anything was wrong or different except they didn't go to schools with other kids," said Molino, who was told that the girls were home-schooled, described them as "very shy" and said the older one was "very clingy to her father."

Make home-schooling illegal!

This guy is crazy

The crazy, old Austrian dude at least created a sound-proof underground dungeon. This guy used tents. Tents!

"When did the Garridos get a kid?"
"Mind your business, bitch."
"Why is she living in a tent?"
"Maybe she likes to live in a tent."
"Why is she crying then?"
"MIND YOUR BUSINESS, BITCH!"

This is one of the craziest news stories to come out in a while.  Hopefully the animals responsible for this get locked up for life.

Would it kill you to use some punctuation?

And you probably wouldn't do shit if you were in the father's position.

[drew]

youd be surpised

im extremely over protective of my family and people i know irl

Your family would be less safe if the rapist were released from prison. And, if you then engaged in vigilante justice, your family would have to suffer through your trial and imprisonment.

for example ive beaten a guy who came on to my mother at work in the parking lot

Is that a valid reason to assault someone? Unless he was harassing her, that's completely unwarranted.

and no it wouldnt kill me but itd be swervin my style

edit: whoatypos

You can use punctuation to alter your style, but you can also use it to make your thoughts more intelligible. I had to re-read your earlier post a couple of times to a make sense of it.

The guy said he could control sound with his mind, clearly he's one of the great scholars of our time and Obama should have a beer summit with him to sort this out.

[OptimoPeach]

This Stockholm syndrome shit always blows my mind.

Manuel Garrido said his son fell into a bad crowd when he was younger and started taking LSD. The elder Garrido said the drugs changed him from a good boy, whom everybody loved, to an unbalanced person.

i honestly dont care, he knew she was married and had inappropriate contact

i would have also kicked the crap out of another coworker who actually was harassing her, but she didnt tell me until he died in a car accident

[Flannel Boy]

but she didnt tell me until he died in a car accident

Was the "accident" the result of a cut brake line?

"I took a bunch of drugs when I was younger, so clearly I can't be held accountable for my actions."

[Great Rumbler]

they're looking for the remains of 10 dead prostitutes at the guy's "compound" :'(

Woah, seriously? Dude was wacked out of his gourd, if true.

Bail for the guy and his wife is set at $22,950,000

Seriously, how could you not call the cops? 

A neighbor did call the police, two years previously. He thought it was strange, called the police, who checked it out and did nothing.

The only reason they caught the guy is because he brought the two kids he begat on the kidnapped girl to pass religious literature out at UC Berkeley, and it seemed strange. He presented his ID which revealed him to be a sexual predator on lifetime parole. They arranged to meet with his parole officer (who had also been out to this ass clown's property several times and never known about his secret backyard), and the guy showed up with the two girls AND THE KIDNAPPED WOMAN, now 29?

And he apparently thinks this is going to be some kind of inspirational TV show eventually, maybe a miniseries on Lifetime.

Kill him now. He is a lifetime predator, and (considering one of the girls is 15) he got the kidnapping victim pregnant when she was 13 or 14, presumably repeatedly raping her from the time of abducting her at age 11. Insane. Feed him to the wild pigs.

You forget that this is California. The same state where CHARLES MANSON was taken off death row.

Pretty much.

Send him to Iraq, bind his arms and legs with an American flag wrapped around him, and say he mysteriously disappeared.

And this dude was given a 50yr sentence for the rape/kidnapping he was ORIGINALLY convicted for. He'd still be in there were it not for the parole board. Bet they're sleeping great tonight.

Yeah, good thing he got religion. Look how well that worked out for everyone.

She doesn't look bad. I guess she avoided 18 years of sun damage.

Wait, David Letterman kidnapped a girl?

She kidnapped herself, man.

No he banged some chick at work.
