Jaycee's Bio dad

[Californian]

Kenneth Slayton was 34 or 35 years old when he had this brief encounter with Terry, who was only 20 or 21 at the time. He was "between" two other relationships (separated from his wife, and he soon became engaged to another woman). He knew she was pregnant before they "lost contact."

This is information from his statements between late August and early September. I'll go back and find the sources if anyone wants it.

Now I'm mad as hell seeing how his story is starting to change. Now "Slayton said he wasn’t sure the baby was his or whether Susan (sic) would even keep it" before they lost touch. This is BS, and I don't understand why Gloria Alldred would be helping him to spin it like this. Oh, right, because "he simply wants to provide a positive male role model for her and her children."

But first he "wants DNA testing done to determine his paternity". :banghead:

Excellent point, MBK.

Jaycee is going through A LOT right now. She only needs to be surrounded by the family she already knows and trusts.

She DOES NOT NEED (imo) to be thrust into a new situation, i.e. "hey, welcome home, JC!, I'm your bio dad, yeah you didn't know me, you might not even have known about me, but here I am, and, oh by the way, here's your half-brothers, and over there, are your half-sisters, and here's some nieces, by the way that means they are your daughter's cousins, mind if we all sit down and get to know you? But first, this here's my attorney, Gloria Allred, she likes to get involved in these high profile cases, now just sit still while we take a swab of your DNA because before we have this little reunion I want to make sure I'm really your daddy."

Okay, that's an over reaction on my part, but that's how I see it. :furious:

this is not an overeaction in the least. i know people meant well in defending what his motives might be........but im not seeing it. this guy is out for nothing but trouble here..........30 years and now he's on the scene? where was he all this time.........where was he when jayce was born/ where was he when she said her first word.....where was he when she rode her bike for the first time........where was he when she was stolen? not by the familys side thats for sure..........now he sees dollar signs and all of a sudden he wants to play daddy? give me a break!:banghead:

Just thinking positive about the bio dad, he may want to change his will, but would like to make sure first. There was no dna testing in '91, but it's now common for unmarried parents to test before ordering child support. There's surely already dna on file , so maybe he should have the right to it just to ease his mind and plan the future. I imagine even the little girls were also tested just to make sure they were Jaycee's. Hopefully Jaycee won't have to go through any more crazy experiences or get involved in family BS with two sets of families.

tx vicky i really wish this was the case. but i dont see it......he's not up to any good here. forcing her to take a dna test after all she's been thru? upsetting her life again? guy is ridiculous. and what is this nonsense about the paternity again? "she's my daughter she has my face anyone can see that?" damn him........this is all about money to him

That's an interesting thought. Maybe he's in a place to be able to help Jaycee financially.

so why is he forcing a meeting and a paternity test? what if jaycee wants nothing to do with him, his family or his money? she's an adult she doesnt have to cow tow to a father who never gave a darn about her

 

[Natal]

Why else would he demand that Dugard get a paternity test?

I would guess that he wanted to come over and say hi, and they told him to take a hike. Getting a paternity test would be one way to force the issue, not so much with Jaycee, but with the grandaughters, who are still minors and therefore open to this sort of action.

If he is Jaycee's father, they minors are not his daughters, they would be his granddaughters. I don't know what legal rights someone would have regarding his granddaughters.

 

[Natal]

There are also his girls to consider. That might be part of the reason for doing all this.

Seems kind of too late. Jaycee is an adult, and if she doesn't want tests done, then the tests shouldn't be done. If she does want them done, that's a different story.
I don't know what rights someone can possibly have wanting to DNA test an adult.

oh so now he wants to play grandpa too. am i the only one seeing a problem here? god im frustrated

That would be something to look up. I believe that people can and do file suit for those sorts of visitation rights, but that the courts usually side with the wishes of the actual parents.

It is worth pointing out that there are two other grandparents out there as well. Now that would be interesting, if one or both of them decided to sue for visitation as well.

 

[Charlie09]

You know, DNA has come a long way. I'm not even aware of the story, my first thought is disgust, my second thought is he may want to verify before setting up another emotional disruption. He may be protecting her and himself with this request.

I don't know.

most parents that sue for visitation actually met there own kid...........

 

[kbl8201]

if he sues jaycee for anythng hes an even bigger piece of dirt then i thought

Not necessarily. He might want his daughters to play aunt. Their relationship to the two nieces is pretty much the same as that of the other half sister. Why should one get to play and the other two not? I would guess that he might be looking at it like that.

That might be their argument, I can't see that anything else would get them in.

he never saw her once between the time she was born and the time she was kidnapped. he's setting up an emotional disruption just by sticking his damn nose into this.

Visitation would be for the grandchildren, and in this case the only grandparent that had actually met them prior to this was Patricia Garrido. From that point of view, all other grandparents should be on an equal footing.

well he never seemed to worry about his kids playing 'sister" with jaycee before she was kidnapped. this is the whole issue to me. why the intrest 30 years later?

 

[kbl8201]

would just like to see the person who is on this board and claims to know him explain to all of us what his motivation here is for turning her life upside even more then it already is.
