Investigators Test Bone Found In Yard Near Garrido’s Home

A bone fragment has been found in a backyard near the Antioch home of a convicted rapist who kidnapped a girl and held her as a sex slave for 18 years.

DNA test is being conducted on the likely human bone as part of a parallel investigation of a serial killing in the 1990s, according to the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s office Tuesday.

Phillip Garrido, 58, together with his 54-year-old wife, had been charged with the kidnapping of Jayceen Lee Duggard in 1991 when she was 11 years old. Garrido is also facing charges of sexually abusing Duggard over the years until her rescue on Aug. 26.

Duggard was discovered by police living in a tent at the back of Garrido’s home he shares with his wife. Also found were two daughters of Duggard believed to be fathered by Garrido.

Investigators suspect that Garrido may also be behind the killing of several young women in the 1990s and the bone fragment found last week may give clues to the said crimes.

Garrido and his wife are detained at the El Dorado County Jail.
