Jaycee Dugard: 1991 Missing Girl Found Alive
August 30, 2009
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (Aug. 27) — A woman who was snatched from a bus stop as an 11-year-old child in 1991 turned up at a California police station after 18 mysterious years, and a convicted sex offender and his wife were arrested in the kidnapping.
Jaycee Lee Dugard was reunited with her mother, who was overjoyed to learn the daughter she feared dead was actually alive and well.
It was not immediately clear how Dugard spent the 18 years since she was abducted as a blond, ponytailed child outside her South Lake Tahoe home.
Police said she recently walked into a Northern California police station with Phillip Garrido, 58, one of her alleged captors. He and his wife Nancy Garrido, 54, were arrested for investigation of kidnapping and conspiracy on Wednesday, police said.
Phillip Garrido is also being held for investigation of rape by force, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor and sexual penetration, said Jimmie Lee, a spokesman for the Contra Costa Sheriff’s Department.
Phillip Garrido has a conviction for rape by force or fear and was paroled from a Nevada state prison in 1999, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
Dugard was in good health when she came into a San Francisco Bay area police station and revealed her name.
“We’re 99 percent sure it’s her,” said sheriff’s Lt. Les Lovell of the El Dorado Sheriff’s Department, who was a detective igned to help investigate the kidnapping in 1991. DNA tests were being conducted.
California corrections officials said they called in Phillip Garrido for questioning Wednesday after receiving a report that he was seen with two small children at the University of California, Berkeley.
Two children and two adult women accompanied him to the station.
“The diligent questioning and follow-up by the parolee’s agent of record led to Garrido revealing his kidnapping of the adult female,” the department said in a statement. “It was further revealed by Garrido that she was Jaycee Lee Dugard, and that the children were his.”
It was not immediately clear who was the mother of the children.
FBI spokesman Joe Schadler said the woman was reunited with her mother Thursday morning. He declined to provide details.
The suspects were being held in El Dorado County in lieu of $1 million bail each.
A house in the city of Antioch was cordoned off with police tape as it was searched by FBI agents and the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Department.
Neighbor Helen Boyer, 78, described the Garridos as nice and friendly and said they cared for Phillip Garrido’s elderly mother.
“If I needed something, they would be the first I would call on,” Boyer said.
Dugard’s stepfather, Carl Probyn, 60, said he was overwhelmed by the news that Dugard was alive. He said for years he had done everything he could to help find her, especially because he knew suspicion had fallen on him.
“It broke my marriage up. I’ve gone through , I mean I’m a suspect up until yesterday,” he told The ociated Press at his home in Orange, Calif. “I’m the last person to see her.”
Witnesses reported that a vehicle with two people drove up to Dugard and abducted her while her stepfather watched on June 10, 1991.
Probyn said he saw someone reach out and grab her before the car sped away.
“As soon as I saw the door fly open, the driver’s door, I jumped on my mountain bike and I tried to get to the top of the hill but I had no energy. I rode back down and yelled at my neighbor, 911!” he recalled.
Probyn said his wife, from whom he is separated, was devastated by the kidnapping. He said for 10 years after the crime, she would take a week off work at Christmas and on the anniversary of the abduction and spend the time crying at home.
The case attracted national attention and was featured on TV’s “America’s Most Wanted,” which broadcast a composite drawing of a suspect seen in the car.
Probyn eventually lost hope that he would ever see his stepdaughter alive. He said he was struggling to understand why Dugard didn’t come forward earlier.
“I have a million questions, but I’m just delighted,” he said.
Lovell said investigators have been working the case consistently since the abduction and new leads had surfaced over time.
“You bet it’s a surprise. This is not the normal resolution to a kidnapping,” he said.

Missing Jaycee Dugard Found Alive?
August 28, 2009
Jaycee Lee Dugard, an 11-year-old girl who was kidnapped from South Lake Tahoe in 1991, has been found alive and the man wanted in her disappearance has admitted to abducting her. Two suspects are in custody. The suspects were moved Thursday afternoon to the El Dorado County Jail from the Contra Costa County jail where they had been held since their arrest Wednesday.
The suspects are a husband and wife. They’ve been identified as 58-year-old Phillip Craig Garrido and 54-year-old Nancy Garrido. The two were being held on one million dollars bail each. According to an officer at the Contra Costa County jail, Phillip Garrido has five pending charges: kidnapping, rape, lewd behavior, sexual penetration and conspiracy, while Nancy Garrido has two pending charges, kidnapping and conspiracy.
Phillip Garrido is also being held for investigation of rape by force, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor and sexual penetration, said Jimmie Lee, a spokesman for the Contra Costa Sheriff’s Department.
Phillip Garrido has a conviction for rape by force or fear, according to the Megan’s Law database.
The kidnapped woman was in good health when she came into a San Francisco Bay area police station and said she was Jaycee Lee Dugard, a blond, ponytailed girl when she was abducted as she headed to a school bus stop 18 years ago outside her South Lake Tahoe home, said sheriff’s Lt. Les Lovell of the El Dorado Sheriff’s Department.
It was not immediately clear when she had surfaced.
“We’re 99 percent sure it’s her,” he said. He said DNA tests were being conducted.
Lovell said Concord police did an investigation after the woman surfaced, and he received a call Wednesday from investigators who had tentatively identified her as Dugard.
Her family has been contacted and they are in the process of arranging a meeting, said Lovell, who was a detective igned to help investigate the kidnapping in 1991. “We are very confident at this point in time that it is her.”
Lee said the suspects were being held in the Contra Costa County Jail in Martinez.
A house in the city of Antioch was cordoned off with police tape as it was being searched by FBI agents and the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Department.
Neighbor Helen Boyer, 78, described the Garridos as nice and friendly and said they cared for Phillip Garrido’s elderly mother.
“If I needed something, they would be the first I would call on,” Boyer said.
Dugard’s stepfather, Carl Probyn, said the news of the case was like winning the lottery.
“To have this happen where we get her back alive, and where she remembers things from the past, and to have people in custody is a triple win,” he told the Sacramento Bee.
Witnesses reported that a vehicle with two people drove up to Dugard and abducted her while her stepfather was watching on June 10, 1991.
In media reports at the time, the girl’s stepfather said he heard Jaycee scream then jumped on a bicycle and frantically pedaled after the car in a failed effort to follow it up a hill. He then turned around and screamed at neighbors to call 911.
The case attracted national attention and was featured on TV’s “America’s Most Wanted,” which broadcast a composite drawing of a suspect seen in the car.
Probyn said his wife, Terry, had spoken with Dugard by phone on Wednesday. He said the mother and their 19-year-old daughter were flying from their Southern California home to meet with Dugard in Northern California.
Investigators first visited with his wife about three weeks ago, he said.
Probyn said he endured years of suspicion from FBI agents who believed he may have been involved in the abduction. He eventually lost hope that he would ever see his stepdaughter alive.
“Then you pray that you get her body back so there is an ending,” Probyn said.
Lovell said investigators have been working the case consistently since she was abducted and new leads had surfaced over time.
“You bet it’s a surprise. This is not the normal resolution to a kidnapping,” he said.
