Jaycee Lee Dugard is featured now for the first time in People Magazine. Jaycee said, “I’m so happy to be back with my family”, she told the magazine. "Nothing is more important than the unconditional love and support I have from them.” Looking at the joy in her face brings tears to my eyes when I think of what she has been through. Then I feel inspired by how enduring the human spirit can be. That she can look so fantastic is truly wonderful. Jaycee looked radiantly happy, healthy, with a bright broad smile and wavy long brown hair over her shoulders.
Jaycee Lee Dugard was kidnapped in 1991 when she was just 11 years old. Jaycee was abducted as she took a walk towards the school bus stop within sight of her home in South Lake Tahoe, California. Carl Probyn, Jaycee’s stepfather, standing in the garage entrance of their family house, watched her walk towards the school bus stop a short distance away. The family’s world fell apart when a woman then grabbed Jaycee and hauled her into a gray sedan before racing off. Carl raced after the car on his bicycle but couldn’t keep pace with them as the two people in the car drove off with Dugard imprisoned inside.
Angel, 15, and Starlit, 11, are Jaycee's daughters, apparently fathered by Phillip Garrido, 58; a registered sex offender who police say raped her repeatedly over the years. The yard at the rear of Garrido’s home close to Antioch, California, is were Jaycee and her two daughters lived, never going to school in all those years or ever seeing a Doctor.
This house in Antioch, CA, where Jaycee and her two daughters were kept prisoner in the backyard is actually in the name of Phillip Garrido’s mother. She lived there with Phillip and Nancy Garrido, Jaycee and Jaycee’s two daughters. It feels as if the authorities are keeping very quiet about her involvement. Possibly dismissing it on the grounds of ill health and being elderly. She hasn’t always been ill or elderly. What was her involvement in this horrendous crime over 18 years?
Overhanging Mimosa trees, dense shrubbery and a high planked fence hid Jaycee’s, Angel’s and Starlit’s ramshackle world of tents and shacks from the outside world .It was in this cluster of grimy tents and windowless shacks that Jaycee and her two daughters lived.
Now Phillip and Nancy Garrido face a combined total of 29 felony charges, including forcible abduction, rape and false imprisonment in connection with the kidnapping of Jaycee Lee Dugard in 1991. Garrido remains in custody at the El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, California, as he and his wife Nancy Garrido await trial.
Jaycee and her two daughters are now living in seclusion with her mom, Terry Probyn, 50, and family. A family spokeswoman said Jaycee was riding horses, cooking meals and thinking of collaborating on a book.
We can’t permit these wonderful photos to in any way reduce the torment that Jaycee and her family have suffered over the last 18 years or in any way belittle the very hard road to recovery that Jaycee will have to go through.
They do however give us all hope. The sort of hope that comes from seeing another human being putting on a heartwarming smile even after suffering 18 years of hell.
It is truly inspiring.
Lets all wish her well on her road to recovery.
