It been nearly two months since Jaycee Dugard's whereabouts, and the conditions of her 18-year confinement, were uncovered. The story of what happened to her has been in the
back of my mind this entire time. This is due both to me being the father of a girl about the age Jaycee was when she was kidnapped and to questions concerning
theodicy and divine sovereignty that I've been mulling over. There really is no "good" angle that I can see in what happened to her. Any good she will find must be within herself, with the future and with her family, including the two daughters she bore while under the power of her kidnapper.
The photos above are from around the time she was taken, and from the cover of an issue of
People magazine to be released this coming Friday. People close to her say she and the girls are doing very well, while therapists warn that a long road lies ahead for the family.
The future is before you and your life is your own, Jaycee.
Welcome back!
