Jaycee Dugard kidnapped 18 years ago So Lake Tahoe, CA FOUND ALIVE / 2 arrested

[Northern Rose]

How and when did this man become a registered sex offender ? anyone know ?
He was not apparently one when he kidnapped Jaycee... I do not think that this law existed yet about registering them as sex offenders and the law was not retroactive..

I am not sure so I am just asking if anyone knows..

 

He was a sex offender after being found guilty of kidnapping and raping the woman in Reno the storage locker for 5 hours.  Prior to that there were other incidents be no one ever pressed charges - one was with  girl that was drugged and taken to a hotel room. 

"The retired police officer who in 1976 apprehended a strung-out Mr Garrido in the process of raping a 25-year-old woman in a Reno warehouse — which he had equipped with rugs and pornographic magazines, alcohol and theatrical spotlights — told a local newspaper that he was astonished when the man he had put away for life was set free decades before his sentence was due to run out. "

In 1977 Garrido was sentenced to 50 years in federal prison for kidnapping and five years to life on a state charge of sexual assault for crimes in Nevada. He started his federal prison term on June 30, 1977 and then was transferred to Nevada authorities on Jan. 22, 1988 to serve state time. He was then paroled in Nevada on Aug. 26, 1988 and then later paroled to California.

Mercury News.com reported that a violation landed him back in prison from April to August 1993.

OMG the video of the searches crawling on their hands and knees at this link.

Investigators dig for clues at Garrido home

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CA (KGO) -- The search for clues in two Bay Area cold case kidnappings has resumed near Antioch.

Investigators are using special equipment to pick up where cadaver dogs left off on Thursday, at the home where police say Jaycee Dugard was held captive for 18 years.

Investigators say they'll leave no stone unturned and no shed standing as they tear through the Garrido's backyard. More than five truckloads of debris have aleready been hauled out, and there's plenty left.
Police say concrete slabs are going to be removed perhaps there's something important to the kidnap cases underneath. And speaking of underneath, they will continue searching underneath the ground from above with the help of a magnetomenter. The magnetomenter was put to immediate use, looking several feet underground, as did a high tech device Thursday. But despite all the looking for four days now, there has been no finding, which police say, could be a good thing.
"I wouldn't say the lack of a key piece of evidence is a frustration for us. We hope to find more, but in a sense it could indicate that they are alive somewhere, so its really a mixed blessing either way," said Hayward Police Lt. Chris Orrey.

The 1994 Jacob Wetterling Act requires the States to register sex offenders registered of sex crimes against children. Sex offender registration laws are necessary because:


Sex offenders pose a high risk of re-offending after release from custody;

Protecting the public from sex offenders is a primary governmental interest;

The privacy interests of persons convicted of sex offenses are less important than the government’s interest in public safety;

Release of certain information about sex offenders to public agencies and the general public will assist in protecting the public safety.

Debris Removed From Garrido Property
House Filled With Clutter

ANTIOCH, Calif. -- Investigators worked Friday to remove mountains of debris from the Antioch property of Phillip and Nancy Garrido to clear the way for search dogs capable of detecting old, buried bones.

The Garridos, who are accused of kidnapping Jaycee Lee Dugard, are also being investigated in connection with other disappearances.

Lt. Chris Orrey of the Hayward Police Department said crews planned to remove a concrete slab at the Garridos' home and take apart a shed on an adjacent property.

Orrey said search dogs will return next week after yards are better cleared. She said officers face a big challenge because of sheer volume of materials stacked on the land.

"There is a lot of stuff to go through," Orrey said during morning news conference.

Equipment capable of scanning for buried items underground will also be used next week. The search will be suspended over the weekend to give workers a rest.

I agree with y'all about the disgusting mess the house and the back area was in.  I cannot for a moment understand how anyone could live in such squalor such as the main house was in.  No room except a lil pathway thru the mess to walk.  And the kitchen!     There's NO excuse for that, none!  IMO. 

My heart goes out to those doing the searching, who have to actually find a way to sift thru that disgusting mess.  Cannot even imagine how difficult it must be.  After looking at the kitchen sink area, my first thought was... where would one even begin, in looking for any sign of clues, etc?  It's no wonder, IMO, that they bundled the chit off into trucks, and still aren't even halfway thru the doing of that. 

And I have to wonder about the folks who've been interviewed, who've said that they went to the main house, to pick up business orders etc.  We saw the livingroom earlier on.  Didn't they?  The parole officer supposedly actually went inside the house so he reports.  That he walked thru and to the back, looked out a window, went into the backyard.  And based alone on that disgusting mess in the livingroom and kitchen, (which IMO didn't get that way overnight), didn't it occur to any of these folks to wonder WTH??

  
 

amazing isn't it??? boggles the mind!

Authorities dig in suspected Dugard kidnapper Phillip Garrido's yard after cadaver dogs catch scent
The Asscociated Press

Saturday, September 19th 2009, 11:50 AM

ANTIOCH, Calif. - Signs of disturbed soil and the discovery of bone fragments on the property where Jaycee Dugard was held captive for 18 years could indicate something is buried on a site where authorities have been searching and cadaver dogs earlier picked up a scent.

Authorities have spent days combing the land to see if Dugard's alleged captors can be tied to two other abductions from the late 1980s, but they also have cautioned that it's still too soon to know whether a soil "anomaly" and found bone fragments could mean any previous digging on the property was crime-related.

"It could be significant, and it could not be significant, but it's helping us target where we might do some digging," said Hayward Police Lt. Chris Orrey.

Hayward and Dublin police are investigating to see if there are any possible links between Phillip Garrido and the unsolved 1988 abduction of 9-year-old Michaela Garecht outside a Hayward market and the 1989 disappearance of 13-year-old Ilene Misheloff in Dublin.

Garrido and his wife, Nancy, have been charged in the 1991 kidnapping of Dugard, who was reunited with her family last month after authorities arrested the couple. Prosecutors say they hid Dugard in their Antioch backyard.

The Garridos have pleaded not guilty. While Hayward and Dublin authorities have not directly interviewed Dugard, who was abducted outside her South Lake Tahoe home in 1991, they have asked other law enforcement agencies involved in the case to ask questions for them, Orrey said.

Dugard has not supplied information to indicate the Garridos were involved in the kidnappings of Garecht or Misheloff. For four straight days, authorities have searched the Garrido's land and a neighbor's yard for clues.

They expect to resume their search Monday. Investigators already have dismantled the hidden encampment of sheds and tents where authorities say Dugard was held and lived with the two daughters she had by Garrido.

They also removed 19 truckloads of debris from the yard and looked inside the Garrido's house.

Orrey said boxes of papers in Phillip Garrido's handwriting have been removed from the house. Bill Silva, a professional archaeologist who has led excavations for ancient skeletal remains and historical artifacts in California, spent Thursday and Friday pushing a ground penetrating radar in a grid pattern around the Garrido property.

On Friday, he picked up signs of disturbed soil that could indicate a pit where previous digging has occurred.

Two cadaver dogs picked up a scent that may be a sign of remains in the same area on Thursday.

Orrey says the next step is to bring in two sets of dogs - one trained to sniff out decomposing bodies and the other trained to detect older bones.

"We have set it up just like an archaeological site, where we are looking for real ephemeral remains," Silva said of the backyard dig in Antioch.

"This is the first crime scene I've worked on, unless you consider a Native American massacre site."

If there was previous digging on the property, it could be due to something as simple as the fact that the neighborhood used to be made up of citrus orchards and walnut groves, he said.

Oh my gosh, a possible pit?? 

Thanks for the updates.... Looking worse and worse.

Dugard said to deny daughters were molested

Almost from the start, police have had to ponder the disturbing possibility that kidnap-rape suspect Phillip Craig Garrido sexually molested the two girls whom he is suspected of fathering with his alleged hostage of 18 years, Jaycee Dugard.


Now comes word that the answer appears to be "no" - at least according to Dugard.

"She's saying he didn't touch her kids," says one law enforcement source who is following the investigation.

The girls, ages 15 and 11, never went to school or even saw a doctor, authorities believe. But although Garrido and his wife, Nancy Garrido, are suspected of housing them in a backyard shamble of sheds and tents just outside Antioch, Dugard's aunt has described them as "clever, articulate, curious girls who have a bright future ahead of them."

Dugard, 29, gave birth to the girls in her teens, and both Garridos have been charged with rape. But Dugard is telling authorities that Phillip Garrido "hadn't touched her in years," our source says.

Meanwhile, short of investigators turning up any remains beyond the bone fragments found recently in a search of the Garridos' home and next-door property, hopes are fading among police of finding anything pointing to other kidnappings that the couple might have committed.

"My gut belief is none of the efforts are going to result in anything revealing evidence of additional crimes," Contra Costa County Sheriff Warren Rupf told us Friday. "But there isn't a person involved that wants to miss an opportunity to nail this creep."

CA police return to Garrido property for 5th day

NECN/KGO: Antioch, CA) - Police were back out at Phillip and Nancy Garrido's home Saturday in Antioch, California for the fifth day in a row.

Two police dogs trained to locate human remains showed interest in a spot on the half-acre property where authorities say the Garrido's held kidnap victim Jaycee Dugard for 18 years.

The potential find occurred on the third day of a painstaking search of the Garridos' home and a property next door, where Phillip Garrido once lived in a shed.

On Wednesday, investigators reported finding bones that could be either animal or human.

Those bones are being tested, and police note that Native American remains have been found in the area in the past.
