Lost and found, 18 years later
Woman walks into a California police station claiming to be a 1991 kidnap victim
Police are expected to confirm that the 29-year-old who went into a California station to report that she had been taken 18 years ago really is the missing Jaycee Lee Dugard. In 1991, the then-11 year old was taken on her way to school, while her horrified stepfather tried to chase after the kidnappers’ car on a bicycle. Carl Probyn said “I had personally given up hope.” He reported that the woman, who has spoken to his wife, Jaycee Lee’s mother, remembers parts of her past. Two men have been taken into custody.
