How long is the jaycee dugard interview

And seven years after she was freed thanks to a cooperative effort by UC Berkeley police officers, state parole officers and Concord police who all helped unravel her true identity, she still voiced exasperation with why she was not found sooner.

But throughout the TV special she continues to circle back to moving forward and being strong for her daughters. Dugard puts her own spin on the lyrics as she talks about how she has shed much of the anger she could justifiably have.

Contact Robert Salonga at The fear was fuelled by what the Garridos told her about the world. Parole officers paid visits throughout the years to the home to check on Garrido and give him drug tests, but none reported any irregularities. Dugard said she is not full of rage, that to be angry all the time would be to let Phillip Garrido win. But her mother, Terry Probyn, who was interviewed by Sawyer alongside her daughter, said she was. She then looked to her daughter. This article is more than 10 years old.

ABC News aired programme in which the year-old American, who was abducted as a child, recalled ordeal for the first time. How did I keep my hope?

How did she keep her hope," Dugard said. He can't have me. I hate that he took her life away and that makes me sad…I hate that he stole her from me. He ripped out a piece of my heart and he stole my baby," Probyn said. She goes on, "He stole your adolescence. He stole high school proms and had pictures and memories…". When she was first kidnapped, Phillip Garrido kept a stun gun present whenever he raped her, a way to remind her of his power.

After abusing Dugard, sometimes for hours in drug fueled sex binges called "runs," he would sob and apologize. While Philip Garrido was her main tormentor, his wife Nancy was equally adept at playing with Dugard's emotions. She would bring Dugard things like a purple bear, a Barbie, chocolate milk, a Nintendo. She'd even keep Dugard locked in the compound when Phillip Garrido was away serving time for a parole violation. I wish he would have got a headache that morning he took you,'" Dugard recalled.

The Garridos manipulated Dugard until the presence of a stun gun and the use of handcuffs were no longer needed to keep her from fleeing.

Phillip Garrido's power over Dugard grew by being "responsible for everything from time to food to human companionship to your clothes to your identity," Bailey said. When Dugard had her daughters, she didn't flee because Phillip Garrido had convinced her the world outside their compound was unsafe, ironically full of pedophiles and rapists.

I know there was no leaving. The mind manipulation plus the physical abuse I suffered in the beginning, there was no leaving…. I don't know what it would have took. Maybe if one of the girls were being hurt," Dugard said. Dugard coped with the manipulation by keeping journals, writing stories and dreams that allowed her to imagine herself in a life outside of the compound. She would come up with stories about the tree outside the window, she named the spider in her room, she wrote in her journals about falling in love one day, riding in a hot air balloon, being a veterinarian.

She remembered how she used to play school as a little girl, but now she was responsible for actually educating two little girls. Even with access to the computer, Dugard said she never searched for her mother or for news accounts of her kidnapping. That woman, he soon learned, was Jaycee Dugard who, 18 years before, had been kidnapped as she walked to a school bus stop in South Lake Tahoe one morning and had not been seen since.

Stroud, who clearly remembered the kidnapping and the national headlines that accompanied it, was floored. At the parole office, Dugard told the officer that she was the girl who had disappeared in No kidnap victim in modern American history had been found alive after being missing that long. Phillip Garrido was arrested, and Nancy, his wife and co-conspirator, was taken into custody soon after. I reassured her that her daughters were okay and being taken care of. Outside the police station, media outlets from around the country and the world were descending on the city, and it quickly became clear that Dugard and her daughters needed to be taken somewhere private and safe.

Stroud and other officers snuck them out the back of the station in an unmarked car and took them to the local Hilton. The girls, 14 and 11 at the time, and their mother came to their hotel room with only the clothes on their backs. It was at the hotel later that day that Dugard saw her mother, Terry Probyn, for the first time since the Garridos had shocked her with a stun gun and drove her away in their car.

Probyn had rushed to Concord from Southern California after getting the news she had been hoping to get for nearly two decades. Today, Dugard and her nonprofit, the JAYC Foundation, help facilitate that same kind of family reunification for other trauma victims.

When we were rescued, and I started therapy, it was a combo of past, present and future that I thought about. Nancy Garrido is serving a sentence of 36 years to life at the California Institution for Women in Southern California.

Dugard now addresses that experience with a resilience that has come to define her since she emerged from captivity.
