A federal appeals court ruled 2-1 on Friday that Jaycee Dugard, who was kidnapped from South Lake Tahoe and held in Antioch by a parolee for 18 years, cannot hold federal parole officers liable for failing to supervise her captor.

Dugard had argued, unsuccessfully, that federal parole officers failed to...

The complaint, filed in a San Francisco U.S. District Court, has a sturdy claim. Just three years before Dugard was kidnapped, Garrido was released early from prison after being convicted of kidnapping and forcible rape. Parole officers who should have been monitoring Garrido while he was on parole didn’t report him for testing positive multiple times for drug and alcohol abuse. Federal authorities also ignored repeated reports of sexual misconduct by Garrido, visited his home only a dozen times in a decade, and never found Dugard captive in the backyard. Now, the California inspector general has also confirmed that the...

Nancy Garrido, the wife of Jaycee Dugard's accused kidnapper, has a serious legal problem in her defense: She apparently kept the girl prisoner for a five month period while her husband Phillip Garrido went to prison for violating his parole, her lawyer acknowledged today. SNIP One of the many legal dilemmas Nancy Garrido faces is what she did during five months when Phillip was serving a prison sentence for violating his parole in 1993, just two years after Dugard was snatched off a school bus stop.
