Jaycee Lee Dugard
Antioch, California
My local print media here in Macon, Georgia contained this Headline on Page 2A this morning, August 31, 2009: "California police expand search in kidnapping case."
In the past week we have all heard how the White House working through our Attorney General is poised to investigate recent CIA activity in connection with obtaining information from terrorist. You can learn more about this activity at:
The article has this headline: "Attorney general appointing Prosecutor in CIA interrogations." The article goes on to state that Attorney General Holder tapped Assistant U. S. Attorney John Durham to lead the review.
As a citizen of this great country I am aware that it is the President's duty to investigate wrong doings through the office of the Attorney General. This is the America Way.
What I do have a concern about today is how our Government at all levels manages to sweep under the rug, so to speak, the grave injustices that our own Citizens inflict on fellow Citizens.
We are all watching and reading about the Jaycee Lee Dugard situation in Antioch, California. This is an event that is also tragic. As I understand it, this young girl was kidnapped some eighteen years ago and forced to live in deplorable circumstances. I am confident that our Justice System will now seek appropriate resolution to this situation, but why did it go on for so long?
Once the "Investigation of CIA Interrogations" is complete maybe we can have a full scale investigation into the lack of apparent oversight of our nations kidnappers/rapist. Now, please be aware that these events not only happen in California, but elsewhere in our Nation.
During a recent report I heard or read I learned that someone in Antioch, California reported unusual events/sounds coming from the property where the alledged kidnapper lived. Local authorities visited the homeowner and warned him that the tents may be an infraction on Zoning Laws. At no time did the local authority even attempt to view for himself/herself the actual situation in the backyard. What a shame!!!!
I can not comprehend or even appreciate how in the Great State of California, which has fifty- three members of the U. S. House and two fairly powerful Senators has displayed much concern about the welfare of their citizens.
We have Senators Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer as well as District 7 Representative George Miller and the District 10 Congress, which as currently vacant who seem to have a blind eye as to what is/has happened in Antioch, California.
Additionally, from what I have heard/read, the activity in the alledged kidnapper's back yard has been reported time and again.
Thus my suggestion that it is time for a full scale investigation into this miscarriage of Justice in Antioch, California. To add to the situation I am amazed that our Current Speaker of the House, who presents herself as the cure for all of our Nation's troubles, has been neglect or at least a party to the neglect that we are all learning about that has/is evident in the California enforcement system.
May I suggest that it just may be possible that some, if not all of these fine lawmakers are so busy with the big picture that they are/have overlooked the sad plight of Jaycee Lee Dugard.
Thus, in closing, once the CIA investigation is complete that an investigation into the enforcement of laws in every state of the land concerning citizens who are on various list such as anyone who has been identified as "Being a Threat to Children" be launched. This investigation must be done in a timely manner. In fact, maybe We The People should demand an investigation now and be confident that our Government at all levels is also concerned about U. S. Citizens as they appear to be concerned about those who appear to be ready to do great damage to our country. Yes, I am talking about the Terrorist, both foreign and domestic.
"We The People" deserve better that what we are watching and also reading about.
