Background Check: 1st Phillip And Nancy Garrido Then Johnny Wright

A background check in the end nailed Phillip and Nancy Garrido. Plus some home grown suspicion and a mother’s protective instincts.

First Liza Campbell, Events Organiser,University of California, Berkeley, after talking to Phillip Garrido with his two daughters, became suspicious and carried out a Background Check on him which showed he was on parole after a particularly nasty sexual conviction and that he was a registered sex offender .

After asking Phillip Garrido and his two daughters to return the next day for a further meeting Liza contacted Police Officer, Ally Jacobs, and asked Ally to sit in with her and Garrido at this next meeting.

During this meeting between Liza, Ally, Garrido and his two daughters, Ally’s motherly instincts kicked in and told her that something just wasn’t right with the two girls. After the meeting Ally advised Garrido’s parole officer of the meeting and of Garrido’s two teenage daughters.

Back came the shocking news. She felt sick to her stomach. Garrido didn’t have any daughters!

The horror that Jaycee Lee Dugard’s and her family have lived through since 1991 has finally ended. In all a total of 29 felony charges where filed against the Garrido’s .

El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, California, holds Phillip Garrido while he awaits trial.

This is what a woman’s suspicion, a Background Check and a mother’s instincts can do. Hooray for background checks and suspicion. How great was that result!

Another story that promotes conducting a background check is the arrest this week of Johnny Wright after a quarter of a century of avoiding the Law.

Johnny Wright was detained recently after trying to apply for a driving job in an Atlanta suburb. The job required a criminal background check as part of the job application. It was Wright who went to the Police Station in Lawrenceville, Georgia, to have the Background Check carried out! When Wright came back the next day to get the paperwork he was arrested on a warrant issued in Missouri in 1985 for second-degree murder committed way back in 1976!

If only someone in the last 24 years had been suspicious enough of Wright to have carried out a Background Check on him, just like Liza Campbell did with Garrido. Perhaps Background Checks should form part of every job application?
