I think his delusions made him want to get caught because it would give him a stage to preach from. I don't think he has an ounce of guilt.
I do think he's coo-coo for cocopuffs and not faking.
I did read in an article that the parole officer went to the home while Garrido and the girls were at UC Berkeley the 2nd day, and since they weren't home, he asked them to come in...Yes. He wanted to get caught. Maybe not in the traditional sense but possibly he had become so delusional he had simply lost it by this point.
The parole officer did nothing but pick up a telephone. End of story.
He hears there's a very odd/possibly dangerous situation with PG and the girls from the campus police. Instead of heading right over to PG's house to investigate he picks up the phone and asks PG to come in. What if PG hadn't brought the girls that day? Would the parole officer have asked him point blank if he had people living the backyard? Would PG have said no (or made up an excuse, visiting relatives, etc) gone home and put them all in a basement or worse? Would he have cleaned up the backyard, taken them all in the car and driven off until he could think of a better way to hide them?
If PG hadn't brought the girls to the parole office does anyone think we'd be seeing Jaycee ever again?
I just don't understand.
Yeah, I thought he took Jaycee along so she wouldn't escape while they were gone, but who knows?I agree with noZme, that he thought he was going to gain fame soon through his inventions, writing and religious stuff, and I believe that he was preparing the (younger) girls for this new situation in life by taking them out some and rehearsing them as to how to act toward others. I don't know why he would have taken the girls to the station unless he was requested to - to figure out the nature of their relationship - but I think if he was to take them then he may have taken the wife and Jaycee as well in order to provide some kind of explanation for the children. Perhaps that Jaycee was his wife's from a prior relationship, and that the kids were hers, but he had adopted all of them, or some such? Another possibility is that if he had to take the children there he wanted Jaycee there too so that she would not try to escape while they were gone?
He was egomaniacal enough to think he could flaunt the law and get away with it as he had done so many times before. I think that if he had not been in that state of mind and perceived a real risk of being caught he simply would have murdered and buried the remainder of his backyard inhabitants outright. No one knew the two daughters existed and the world thought JC died in 1991.Yes. He wanted to get caught. Maybe not in the traditional sense but possibly he had become so delusional he had simply lost it by this point.
