Phillip Garrido.Who’s Got Their Rights Wrong?

Phillip Garrido, on parole after a rape conviction and a registered sex offender, is accused of kidnapping Jaycee Lee Dugard in 1991. Dugard’s stepfather looked on helplessly as she was dragged into a vehicle by a woman close to her home in South Lake Tahoe, California. Today Phillip and Nancy Garrido both reject the 29 felony charges leveled against them and await trial.

El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, CA houses Phillip Garrido while he awaits trial. From the district Attorney’s Office in El Dorado County we are told that Garrido can watch his case unravel on television and through periodicals.

We Now Come To The ‘Latest’ In The Phillip Garrido Case.

Just two days ago, from his jail cell Garrido wrote a letter to Sacramento Television Station KCRA in which he complained that a number of Jaycee Lee Dugard’s Civil rights had been breached.. These included her Rights of Free Speech and being repeatedly denied access to an attorney during questioning. Phillip Garrido asked that they contact Jaycee Dugard at the earliest possible date.

Can you believe what you are reading?

So Garrido has the right to follow his story on TV and write to the media and thereby influence his case. By this I mean he can keep the nightmare alive for the Dugard family. Constantly putting his name in their front room. Someone in the family is bound to turn the TV on and hear of this letter. What right does he have to do this? What are we doing letting him?

Its Garrido’s civil rights that we are now looking at. The prisoner’s rights. He’s allowed to keep abreast of his case and the news on TV. Phillip Garrido is allowed the freedom to communicate and air his views and opinions to the media. In this case he sent a letter to the television company. Garrido’s thoughts and ideas will soon be in the public eye and he knows this.
The Dugard family are bound to see it or hear about the letter and the nature of its contents.
Let us be very clear about this. This pares down to Garrido’s right to continue his abuse of Jaycee and her family.

We’ve severely let down Jaycee Lee Dugard and her family over the last Eighteen years and we are still letting them down by not protecting them from this monster.

So I ask you who’s sick? Phillip Garrido for standing jointly accused of 29 felony charges, for writing this letter, or for us letting him?

Do our rights count at all? What about the civil rights of Jaycee Lee Dugard and her long suffering family? What about the victim’s rights? We all have the right to expect protection from animals like him!
