Photo Images inside Garrido Home

[westerncolorado]

The only time a "Church basement" is mentioned is when CM said that the younger girl said she attended church in her basement. HUGE box o' salt, it came from CM.

 

[my2sisters]

Perhaps the "basement" is under a concrete slab or a hidden trapdoor? Or maybe a hidden chamber/something somewhere on the property. Assuming she actually said that and Molino didn't just make it up, she could have meant something other that what we understand it to mean. A basement is underground, so what could be underground on the property?

Maybe that's another reason for bringing in the radar equipment. And, they are removing the slabs of concrete in both Garrido's yard and the neighbor's yard. LE stated that they couldn't come up with a good explanation for why the slabs are there (paraphrasing).

Sorry MKB, I should have finished reading the thread before I posted.

And why did California Adult Protective Services not get a call on Garrido's mother living in such filth? Did she never receive a visit from a home health worker or from a therapist or social worker? I was under the impression that the woman suffered from dementia and even if NG was designated as a caregiver (thus, possibly being paid), she would have had some home visits.

My guess is if Nancy was her private CNA, there was no home health agency involved. Noone reported them to APS, and it doesn't sound like the mother saw a doctor either...

 

[LinasK]

I absolutely agree, there was no need for a raid as the perps were in custody. I think they lived in filth and chaos. What a testimony to Jaycee's strength!

Exactly! The house was declared uninhabitable for a reason- not because LE messed it up, otherwise why document it with photographs???

Didn't you find it odd that the handicap chair was still in the bathroom? I don't know when his Mother was moved to a convalescent home or who moved her there.

She went to Contra Costa Regional Med Ctr. in Martinez. From there I'm sure they placed her in a skilled nursing facility. They're not going to take the medical equipment from the home, she'll get new stuff wherever she is placed.

Well, if the Cadaver dogs actually found something, "going to church in the basement" might be a child's description of a funeral. Lets hope that it was a false positive

 

[my2sisters]

I don't know if anyone else saw CNN's Geraldo at Large when Cheyvonne Molino was interviewed, but she said that she didn't bring up anything about LE looking for child . She said that the press reported it and she had said nothing about it. So, yes, she lies and can't even remember what it is that she says.

I still haven't been able to find a link to that broadcast.

 

[joga]

no, oh please no...we're not going to start on CM again...lol. (i'm just being sarcastic because of all the drama with her original thread, please don't take offense!)

You know, now that I think about it, you're right. I was thinking out loud because of the projector screen. :crosseyed:

i have seen that pic posted above before, i believe it is the Garrido's when they were younger. i will try to find a link...

here we go...i believe this is the same one, yeah

That was the photo I thought of when I saw that picture on the floor of the (dining room?).

http://www.kcra.com/news/20972002/detail.html. Warning, these are nasty, filthy pictures! Those poor angels!

Unbelievable!!! I can't imagine someone living in such a filth! :sick: Didn't someone I won't mention try to tell us that they had been inside the house and it wasn't bad,..............if I recall, she said it was a 4000 square foot house.

 

[Leila]

I think that probably the house was FINE when the mother lived there - - those are pretty nice dining room chairs, lace tablecloth, you can see the fringed edge of a curtain in the living room by the entranceway, and how the color goes with the sofa, etc. Somebody was making a bit of an effort until the devil took over.

I almost hate to mention this, but the thought that goes through my mind is "what must it smell like!"

 

[Amster]

To me, it looks like someone trashed the place. Cabinets open and stuff dragged out...chairs on beds...clothes tossed on beds...there wasn't anyway to sleep on the beds! Then...normal stuff...vacuum, ironing board....

The windchimes...

I can't imagine how Jaycee raised 2 babies in that hell hole! Just thinking about my 17 mo. old grandson....how did she do it? Were the babies kept in the house? How do you take care of a toddler in that yard? I'm in awe of Jaycee...

 

[Leila]

IIRC the woman (sorry can't recall her name) from the rape in the 70's said once he got her to the warehouse he had a projector and screen set up and was showing the whole time he was raping her. So.................................................

I had forgotten about that! Yes, she did say that there was a screen, projector, and .

 

[Leila]

i swear, i have been reading as much as i possibly can, but to be honest i didn't know that the mother wasn't living with them when they got busted. i thought she was still there. frustrating cause i'm a fact liker...lol. :banghead:

I vaguely recall that she was at a doctor's office, or in the hospital, or something at the time of the arrest. I think PG's brother stated that she's living with him now. Again, I'm vague on this.

These are the two links to pictures obtained from the county inspector's office from KCRA-3:

Now, compare image 26 from the first link to this picture:



And image 1 from the second link to this picture:



It's clear that LE is trashing the place looking for evidence.

 

[gitana1]

I see your point. In the first set of pictures, it looks like the first was taken after much of what was inside was removed. However, I would hardly say LE was trashing the place. That place was already trashed. Surely LE didn't put a monstrous stack of dirty dishes in the sink and on the counters, or fill the house and yard with all that crap. All that stuff came from their home and the property simply doesn't look like it could reasonably contain it all. Again, they did not conduct a raid. Nevertheless, in viewing your comparison photos, it does seem that the later taken set do not relfect reality as much as the first. Good catch.

I wonder if there was any water in that above ground pool. Here in Oregon, Vector Control can enter your property if they have knowledge of an untreated pool. They give you a warning and then enter and treat the water to kill bugs. I'd think that this pool and some of the junk was holding nasty water. I'm really surprised that no one cracked down on this with all the scare about West Nile.

There just seems to be so many missed opportunities. I mean didn't the meter reader wonder about this place, especially if he saw children?

 

[TakeNote]

i noticed LE had flaged some things.....one i remember off myhead is right next to a shoe......

also the photos of the bricks/patchs on the ground that looked out of place...and they looked to have straw underneath them as well.....

right before that there was a pic with a pipe sticking out of the ground next to the bricks and a shed....like it was venting from under the ground??

I've seen shantytown slums in Africa that look an order of magnitude better than that place! Yikes!

But, I think a good deal of the chaos you see is from the initial police search however. There is just too much random stuff scattered around and on top of chairs/tables etc. Most likely on their first pass through they just emptied all the drawers/cupboards etc and dumped the contents on the nearest chair or table, or the floor if nothing else was handy. They would probably have been looking for things like photographs, video, stuff of that nature which could serve as evidence in the trial. Everything else went on the floor. I think the house would still have looked cluttered and decrepid, but not nearly as bad as in those pictures. Much as I hate to say it, but looking at those pictures I'd say the first search was fluffed.

That is unfortunate because it likely made things way more difficult for the second search team who are probably looking at things in more detail, since much of the context would have been lost.
