Reality is sicker than fiction

Phillip Garrido is one person who should be banned from living in society.

Maybe just banned from living, period.

What a sick, sick fuck.

And he has a wife? How is that possible?

This story is horrifying. Reading about it makes my heart heavy and I feel like crying. For Jacyee. For her two naive and ignorant daughters. And for her poor mother.

Can you imagine reuniting with your own child after 18 years? 18 years! EIGHTEEN FUCKING YEARS.

It absolutely blows my mind.

What pisses me off the most is that Garrido has done something similar before, got caught, and then was set free.

He abducted a woman when he was 25 years old and blamed her. "It's her fault for being so attractive."

He tied her up and kept her in a storage unit in Reno. She was tied up and raped. He called the storage unit "a palace."

He was sentenced to jail to serve a 50 year term. He only served 11 years.

This is all after he admitted he only liked "sex when it's forced."

You don't let people like this free. I don't care how long they serve, or how good they are in jail. This people should be mentally screened before being released again. If he had actually served his full term, he would have never abducted Jaycee in the first place.

She's 29 years old now. With 2 kids. One is 15 and the other is 11. She had her first child when she was 14 years old, 3 years after being abducted.

Think about where you were when you were 14. Can you imagine being pregnant. Living in a tent in the backyard 170 miles away from your family?

I have so many questions. Some of which will probably never be answered.

Garrido is now suspected of murders around his residence in the 1990s. As grateful as I am for Jaycee's mother to be reunited with her child, Garrido robbed both of them of 18 years.

Jaycee never had a chance to date. To go to prom. To play in the band. To fail a class. To play a sport. To argue with her parents. The most important decades of her life were taken away from her.

And for a mother to miss out on watching her baby girl grow up is heart-breaking.

And both Garrido and his wife are pleading not-guilty.

Yeah. Good luck with that.

If don't know what I'm talking about read this.
