JAYCEE DUGARD, A STOLEN LIFE: 'I PROTECTED OTHERS'

A STOLEN LIFE

PERVERT

JAYCEE Dugard didn't try to escape from the hands of her perverted kidnapper because she felt that that by staying she was preventing other children being kidnapped and raped.  
Answering the question that had puzzled people, she testified that she was determined to help others avoid creepy Phillip Garrido's sick perversions. 
The 32-year-old said: "He said he had a sex problem and that if he got me he wouldn't have to do this to anyone else. So I felt I was helping prevent this happening to anyone else, even if it was in a sick and perverted way.
Dugard, who's book 'A Stolen Life: A Memoir',  is due out soon, was snatched, when she was just 11-years-old, added that she felt trapped in Garrido's home in Antioch, east of San Fransisco, especially after giving birth to her daughters Angel, now 15, and Starlet, 13, and feared without any money she had nowhere to go.
She said: "I always felt I was a coward. I was scared of Phillip. And I did not feel like I had anywhere to run to. And, later on, I realised I had the girls and no money, and where would I go'?"
Duggard's nightmare began after she waved goodbye stepfather and walked to a bus stop, when Garrido crawled up behind her in his car and pounced with his wife Nancy.   
She said: "All of a sudden his hand shoots out of the car window and I feel this shock, I stumble back into the bushes trying to back away,"
"But my body feels all tingly and suddenly I'm in the car, in the back, on the floorboards, under a blanket and there is someone sitting on me.
"And then, as we drive on for what seems like for ever, and I am hot and my bladder has emptied, I hear this man say 'I can't believe we got away with it,' and he started laughing."
She also revealed how she pleaded with him to release her, explaining her family could not afford a ransom.
But she quickly realised he was more concerned with having a sex slave rather than earning money from his abductee.

ROT IN HELL: JAYCEE DUGARD'S KIDNAPPERS GET LIFE

THE CALIFORNIA COUPLE who kept Jaycee Dugard as a sex slave for nearly 20 years will never likely see the outsie of prison walls again. The sick pair--who both earlier pleaded guilty to kidnapping nand rape--were sentenced yesterday.
Phillip Garrido, 60, and his wife Nancy, 55, were hammered with prison terms of 431 years to life and 36 years to life respectively. Described as a "sexual predator" who stole two decades of Jaycee's life, Garrido was also castigated for the torture he put the child's mother through during her long absence.

Her mom Terry Probyn asked the court: "How could someone take away the one person in the world I loved so deeply? Where is she? Is she hungry? Is she cold? Is she hurt? My baby was gone and all my dreams turned to nightmares. She was a vulnerable child and I was unable to help her. 
"During 18 years away, I could hear her crying, not with my ears, but with my heart. I could feel her pain, not with my body, but with my heart.... I lived in hell on earth. It was you Nancy Garrido and Phillip Garrido that broke my heart."

Dugard, now 31, was walking to a bus stop in view of her South Lake Tahoe home June 10, 1991, when she was snatched off the street in front of her horrified stepdad. After that, she became their sexual plaything, impregnated by Garrido when she was just 14.
