Monsters, Sexual Predators and every Woman's Darkest Nightmare
Summer 2009: police discover a backyard hidden lair at the home of Phillip Garrido. Garrido, a sexual deviant and sadomasochist pervert has kidnapped a young girl by the name of Jaycee Lee Dugard and kept her his sex slave for 18 years fathering two children with her, while all the time his wife looked on.Katie Callaway Hall was 25, a single mom of a 7-year-old son, when Phillip Garrido entered her life one chilly evening in November 1976. Then known as Katie Callaway, she was headed to her boyfriend's house with a carload of food for dinner when a young man with a ponytail tapped on her window in a grocery store parking lot. His car wouldn't start. Could she give him a ride? She looked him over and let him in. "He didn't look like what I thought a rapist should look like," she said Friday during an interview at her Las Vegas home.She followed his directions around South Lake Tahoe, Calif., as he guided her to what she thought was his friend's house. He told her to stop in front of an empty lot, then he struck. The man, who was unarmed, grabbed the back of her neck and forced her head into the steering wheel. "All I want is a piece of ass. If you do everything I say you won't get hurt. I'm serious," he told her, according to trial transcripts. He handcuffed her, moved her to the passenger seat and used a leather strap to bind her head to her knees. He tossed a coat over her and drove off. She asked him when she would be back. "Maybe I will bring you back tomorrow," she testified he told her. She asked him where they were going. "Far away. I've got a shed. I've got it all prepared," he told her, according to the transcripts. He drove across the state line to a storage unit in Reno, which housed a carpeted room adorned with a dirty mattress, sex toys and pornographic magazines.
He raped her again and again for more than five hours. As the night wore on and the assaults grew more violent, Callaway Hall eyed a pair of large scissors and considered her escape. But it was a knock on the shed door that ended her night of terror. Reno police officer Clifford Conrad had noticed a car with California plates outside the storage unit, and upon a closer look he saw the broken lock on the door. He knocked until Garrido rolled up the door and emerged wearing jeans and nothing else.
