I think Dugard can and will have to face them in court. I don't see either Garrido all of a sudden pleading guilty. It'll be probably, at least, two years before a trial starts. The fact she and her daughters are both alive is a testament to her incredible resilience. If she can get through that, she can get through a trial. Plus, as painful as it'll be for her, realizing she helped put them away will help her move forward with her new life, in creating a "new normal."
jaycee dugard thank you

The D.A. who gave the press conference in El Dorado county already said as much. Maybe they could give her the option of testifying by videotape though... I've heard of that being done when it is too traumatic to face your accuser.
this always leaves the potential the defense can win an appeal on the confrontation clause
