Background Check: 1st Phillip Garrido Now Johnny Wright

A background check at last nailed Phillip and Nancy Garrido. With some female suspicion and a mother’s protective instincts.

First Liza Campbell, Events Organiser,University of California, Berkeley, after seeing Phillip Garrido with his two daughters, became suspicious and carried out a Background Check on him which showed from his record 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, Alison 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 told Garrido’s parole officer of the meeting and of Garrido’s two 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 suffered since 1991 has finally come to an end. In all a total of 29 felony charges where filed against the Garrido’s .

El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, CA, detains 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 supports doing a background check is the arrest this week of Johnny Wright after 25 years of avoiding the Law.

Johnny Wright was detained on 23rd September after trying to apply for a driving job in an Atlanta suburb. The position required a routine background check as part of the job application. It was Wright who went to the Police Station in Lawrenceville, Georgia, to get the Background Check carried out! When Johnny Wright returned the next day to pick up and pay for 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?
