Campus police suspicions led to kidnap arrest

Two quick-thinking police employees at the University of California, Berkeley described how they set in motion Jaycee Lee Dugard’s release after nearly two decades of captivity when they encountered her alleged captor on campus.

Phillip Garrido, who was distributing bizarre religious material with two girls in tow, seemed incoherent and mentally unstable, Lisa Campbell said. The girls wore drab-coloured dresses, were unusually subdued, had unnaturally pale complexions and appeared robotic and rehearsed when they spoke, she said.
