Simple intuition led police staff to crack kidnap case

THE two police employees credited with cracking the abduction case said it was simply intuition that something was amiss when accused rapist and kidnapper Phillip Garrido showed up at a college campus with Dugard’s two daughters.

“Their movements weren’t that of ordinary girls,” UC Berkeley officer Ally Jacobs said.

Lisa Campbell, a manager with the campus police who first spotted the trio handing out religious material at UC Berkeley, said there wasn’t one thing that raised her suspicions. Garrido, she said, “appeared to be really unstable, erratic in conversation” while his two daughters, Angel and Starlet, lingered in the background.
