20 million for Jaycee Dugard
Jaycee Dugard received a 20 million dollars
payment as a result to the state’s incapability to supervise the man who held her in captivity for 18 years. The bill contained three other claims, and the total amount Jaycee Dugard asked for was 21.1 million dollars, out of which the 30 year old mother of two daughters born in captivity received 20.
California parole officers were not able to supervise Phillip Garrido , the man accused of holding Jaycee Dugard captive for the long period of 18 years, and flunked many chances to free her. Garrido was accused of many parole violations but the department of justice did not properly supervise him and missed all the opportunities of discovering his victims. Garrido was convicted in the 1970s for kidnapping and raping a woman from California and after fulfilling his sentence, he was released on parole.
Jaycee Dugard was discovered 18 years after she was kidnapped, back in 1991. this is the time when he was registered as a sex offender. From the moment of him being released and through the 18 years while he imprisoned Dugard he had six different parole officers assigned to him by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, but none of them was able to see what was going on in his backyard.
