Jaycee Lee Dugard Obtains $20 Million Settlement

July 2. 2010

Rape victim, Jaycee Lee Dugard, 30, has received a $20,000,000 settlement from the State of California, due to their criminal negligence that allowed a pedophile and his wife, to kidnap, abuse, repeatedly rape and impregnate her, over the course of 18 years. 

As a minor, Dugard bore Phillip Garrido two children, who are ages 15 and 12. They were forced to live in his backyard like pets. The parole system failed in allowing a criminal that was not rehabilitated to roam free, without proper supervision.   

No amount of money will ever compensate for what Dugard went through. She was robbed of many years of her life, youth, dignity and privacy.
