Acknowledgments
After Jaycee Lee Dugard’s allegedly heartless kidnapper Phillip Garrido was unmasked as a twenty-first-century Charles Manson, many questioned how a human being could commit such unspeakable crimes. But Garrido’s arrest came as no surprise to Katie Callaway Hall, who had been his first victim in 1976, when he had forcibly taken her across the California/Nevada border to rape her.
As a result, Garrido was sent to prison for half a century. But after only serving 11 years, he had cunningly managed to beat the system to be freed back into society.
Soon after getting out, he tracked Katie down to the casino where she was working and threatened her. Terrified, she warned his parole officer that it was only a matter of time before he struck again, but was told nothing could be done.
