: Legal Pad | LAClaims filed against state by Dugard family members
By Richard Binder
Members of the Dugard family, including Jaycee Dugard herself, have filed claims against California, citing "various lapses by corrections department" and claiming "psychological, physical and emotional" damages.
State parole agents started supervising Phillip Garrido in 1999, when he fell under a lifetime parole term from Nevada for a rape in 1976. A report by the state Inspector General's Office in November described numerous lapses by state parole agents and missed chances to discover Dugard's identity before UC Berkeley officials tipped off Garrido's parole agent in August. Only after the report was released did the state secretary of Corrections and Rehabilitation acknowledge that there were "serious errors" in Garrido's supervision.
The claims don't list a dollar amount for damages, but do indicate that they exceed $25,000.
