Background Check: Results in The Arrest Of Johnny Wright

Just a while ago we found how a combination of a woman’s suspicions, a background check and a mother’s instincts resulted in the arrest of Phillip Garrido from Antioch, California .

First Liza Campbell, Events Organiser,University of California, Berkeley, after meeting 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 violent rape conviction and that he was a registered sex offender .

Because of this Liza asked Police Officer, Ally Jacobs, to be with her the next day at a meeting with Garrido and his two daughters .

Alison’s motherly instincts told her something just wasn’t right about the two teenage girls and told Garrido’sparole officer .

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

Now Phillip and Nancy Garrido are looking at a combined total of 29 felony charges, involving forcible abduction, rape and false imprisonment in connection with the kidnapping of Jaycee Lee Dugard in 1991.

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!

The next story doesn’t include a woman’s suspicions or a mother’s instincts. It depends simply on a Background Check bringing someone to justice .

You couldn’t make this up. Johnny Wright walks into the Police Station in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and applied for a background check be carried out on him. This formed part of a job application for a driver’s job in Atlanta. He came back the next day to pay the 15 dollars and collect the paperwork but found himself behind bars. An arrest warrant from 1985 had come to light in connection with the second-degree murder of Rebecca A Doisy 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?
