Butterfly Ring
As we said, Jaycee was stripped and handcuffed when she first got to Garrido’s home. She told him his family did not have money for a ransom, but she soon learned that her captivity in Antioch, California was not about money. Even though Phillip Garrido took all of her clothing, young Jaycee was able to hide her butterfly ring from both Phillip and his wife. That small ring became her special treasure all those 18 years.
Bianca The Spider
During her first week, she was handcuffed in a shed and only after moved to a larger sound-proof one and handcuffed to a bed. Garrido warned she would be attacked by guard dogs if she tried running. Speaking of the silence she was left in, she said, “I can still hear it, consciously, when I’m awake. Some sounds and smells just don’t leave you.” Her only friend during those silent, lonely moments happened to be a spider who lived in the shed. She named the spider Bianca.
