Calloway was an adult, but she was raped, and not a consensual relationship. Back then, when policeman asked Garrido why a guy like Garrido (presumably attractive) would have to resort to rape, Garrido supposedly replied that he would get sexual gratification through forced sex.
So if JC "bonded" with him after some time, and wasn't resisting, I suppose it is possible he stopped having sex with her.
Okay, while this made me dry heave for a second, not only because it's so disguisting to think about, but because it makes a lot of sense. Good point, jjenny.
(Okay, not to be ridiculous here, but I need to add this Disclaimer: the following paragraph is based soley on my own experience and/or interpretations of others' experiences. It's to be considered only my opinion. Also, I already know about the controversy surrounding psychotropic prescription meds, so if you're feeling the need to discuss that aspect of my statement, I'd prefer if you refrain.)
I was prescribed Valium once years ago, to help with some trauma, and was shocked at how much it made everything just kind of float away where I could still generally function, but just didn't care much about anything going on around or inside of me. At the time, it was very helpful, but it's probably a good thing there were no refills available. I've also taken Xanax and Klonopin for anxiety and while they were much less debilitating than the Valium, they had a similar effect. I would imagine it wouldn't be too good of an idea to give them marijuana to go out in public, though, because there could be too many giggles and "permagrin" for that. And possibly increased paranoia.
