Jaycee Lee Dugard: yard of known violent S.O. not subjected to any form of examination for Eighteen Years!

I’ve read in the media today that Antioch has an unusually high number of registered sex offenders. This could have given the authorities in Antioch justification to ensure they had a fool proof system of supervision of these people so that we were all afforded excellent protection, especially young girls and women. For eighteen years they monitored Phillip Craig Garrido, a serious offender and known addict of sex with violence, and never examined the garden or backyard. It’s astounding. You would think that with such a high level of sex offenders they would actually have an effective tight supervision system.

Managing to keep Jaycee and her children on his property undiscovered for all those years beggars belief. It’s been reported that he was regularly visited at his home by his parole officer who interviewed him with the girls being just feet away. This man should have had no right of privacy what so ever. If this is the reason given by the parole service as to why no examination was carried out. They haven’t put this forward yet. But I can hear it being muted in the background already!

The whole thing is shocking!

It’s reported in the media comments about how underfunded, undermanned and overworked the various departments are that have been working on this case for the last eighteen years. The FBI, the Sherif’s dept and the Parole Services. And pray tell me the connection between being undermanned and with an officer from the parole office or the police investigating the yard? The failure to check his garden and backyard when neighbors have reported hearing children’s voices in the backyard, that people were living in the backyard, has absolutely nothing to do with man hours, workload, underfunding or anything else that may be put forward as a reason why this appalling situation went undetected by the authorities for 18years.

I still can’t take all this in! Shock!. Those poor poor girls should never have had to endure those years of captivity. There was just no need.

What do you think?
