Jaycee Dugard, the 11 year old who went missing in 1991, after she was abducted from her school bus has miraculously been found this Thursday after her abductor Philip Garrido 58 and his wife Nancy Garrido were arrested on Wednesday for Dugard’s kidnapping on June 10th 1991 from the South Lake Tahoe.

The now 29 year Dugard is a mother to two children aged 11 and 15, who also lived along with her in captivity . Dugard was living as captive for 18 years.

Helen Boyer 78, the neighbor of the Garrido couple described them as normal and friendly. It is incredible that Garrido maintained such a facade since he forcibly fathered two children with Jaycee. Boyer said the family was so approachable that if ever he needed help he would not hesitate to ask them for it.

Philip Garrido has a police record , as he has been convicted for rape. The sex offender had held the pony-tailed blond in captivity making her live in sheds in the backyard of his home. Garrido was on life-time parole.

“None of the children have ever been to a school, they’ve never been to a doctor.” El Dorado County Under Sheriff, Fred Kollar told sources. “They were kept in complete isolation in this compound. You can’t see over the fence with the shrubbery and the trees. You can’t see the structures.” Kollar said. The place where they lived looked like an extended camping area, and had a shower and electric supply.

Brambila, 26, who had been in the same school as Dugard, in 1991 said “I just remember my parents asking if I knew her, and I remember them insisting on walking me to the school bus everyday after that.”
