Recently it was reported how a combination of a woman’s suspicions, a background check and a mother’s instincts resulted in the detention of Phillip Garrido from Antioch, California .
First Liza Campbell, Events Organiser,University of California, Berkeley, after seeing Garrido with his two daughters, became suspicious and carried out a Background Check on him which revealed he was on parole after a vicious sexual assault conviction and that he was a registered sex offender .
Liza Campbell then asked Police Officer, Ally Jacobs, to join her the next day at a meeting with Garrido and his two daughters .
At this meeting Alison Jacobs spoke separately to Garrido’s two daughters. Her motherly instincts told her something was strange about the girls. Ally telephoned Phillip Garrido’s parole officer about the meeting with Garrido and his two daughters .
Back came the shocking news. She felt sick to her stomach. Garrido didn’t have any daughters!
The torment that Jaycee Lee Dugard’s and her family have endured since 1991 has finally ceased. In all a total of 29 felony charges where filed against the Garrido’s .
El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, CA, 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!
Our next story doesn’t include a woman’s suspicions or a mother’s instincts. It depends purely on a Background Check bringing someone to justice .
Johnny Wright was apprehended on 23rd September 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 he returned the following day to collect 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?
