Previous Charges
Back in 1972, Phillip Garrido got charged for drugging and also raping a girl who was 14 years old. However, these charges got dropped because the victim wouldn’t testify. Then, in 1976, he kidnapped a 25 year old, who he raped in a warehouse, but got caught. This was the crime he got sentenced to 50 years in prison for and 5 years to life on state charges. Yet, Garrido served 11 and got parole in 1988.
Named Suspect
However, it wasn’t only those charges that Phillip Garrido may have been responsible for. Actually, he was named as a suspect in many other kidnapping cases in California. One included the abduction of Michaela Garecht, a 9 year old girl. However, he was never charged with any other crimes.
