Jaycee Lee Dugard: Penitentiary Marriages

Do you appreciate that Nancy Garrido actually met and married Phillip Garrido whilst he was in Leavenworth Penitentiary in Kansas serving a 50-year federal sentence for kidnap and violent sexual assault?. She was 26 and he was 30. His psychiatric evaluation diagnosed him as a "sexual deviant and chronic drug abuser”.

That didn’t stop the Prison authorities from letting Nancy and Phillip Garrido see each other and eventually marry whilst he was still imprisoned in Leavenworth Penitentiary, Kansas. What were we thinking?

The issue of Prison Marriages needs to be reviewed!

Are we changing our prisons into a criminal dating service? A home between dominant male sexual deviants and mentally weak, vulnerable women? Or was Nancy a willing female pedophile?

Possibly one of society’s last taboos is the concept of ‘female pedophiles acting alone’. With Nancy and Phillip Garrido there is an assumption by society that Nancy is mentally frail and was coerced by Phillip.Thereby taking away any responsibility the woman has for the sexual abuse of the child. We resist the thought that women can be willingly engage in the sexual abuse of children.

Female sexual abuse is much more threatening to the fabric of our society- it undermines our core beliefs and feelings about how women should relate to children.

This asks the question, “Is Nancy a female pedophile?” Was Nancy forced or acted willingly?

Wherever the truth of this lies there is one fact we cannot dismiss. We paid for the wedding!

Garrido was convicted of kidnap and rape and began serving a 50-year federal sentence on June 30, 1977, at Leavenworth Penitentiary in Kansas. In a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation, Garrido was diagnosed as a "sexual deviant and chronic drug abuser."

While he was locked up in Leavenworth Phillip Garrido met Nancy. She was there visiting another prisoner, her uncle. On October 5, 1981, Phillip Garrido and Nancy Bocanegra were married at Leavenworth. What were the Prison authorities doing when they approved of this marriage to go ahead, even though Phillip Garrido wasn’t freed for another seven years?

Let me renew my question. Did we place a weak and vulnerable woman under the power and control of a diagnosed incarcerated “sexual deviant” or are women pedophiles much more responsible for their abuse of children than society wishes to admit?

Prison Marriages. Have we allowed our prisons be a contact club for sexual deviants? Not only that we then marry them!
