Shattered Innocence by Robert Scott 3 Stars!

By -

The Case That Shocked The World
In 1991, an 11-year-old-girl was abducted in broad daylight. Eighteen years later, a policewoman at UC Berkeley confronted a deranged man accompanied by two young girls. During questioning the next day, the girls' mother blurted: "I am Jaycee Lee Dugard. " Her companion was identified as Phillip Craig Garrido—a convicted drug user, rapist and sexual predator. An astonishing story was about to unfold. . .
The Evil That Never Should Have Happened. . .
Now, award-winning author Robert Scott brings to light previously unrevealed information about Garrido's criminal past and manipulation of the legal system. With police and psychologist testimony, this book shows how Garrido managed to get out of a 50-year prison sentence—to shatter the innocence of Jaycee Lee Dugard forever. . .
Includes 16 pages of photos

******************************************************************

The story of this young lady is riveting and maddening but yet you cannot put the book down.  You want to know how she manage to survive and how it was possible for the man who kidnapped her to have kept her captive for so long.  
Jaycee is a Survivor of so many horrible things that happened to her and I wanted to know her story.  This books gives all the information but it's like reading newspaper clippings attached together with words added in here and there.
The information is accurate, the story amazing but the way it was told left a little more to be desired for me.  This Book is truly worth reading and I hope you will because Jaycee's story of survival is phenomenal!

So this is our last day to party :(  It's too bad because it's been such a wonderful time!  I've loved having each and every one of you here celebrating All Hallows Eve! Our final destination is................ Waverly Hills Sanatorium, located in Louisville, Kentucky, opened in 1910 as a two-story hospital to accommodate 40 to 50 tuberculosis patients. It has since come to be considered one of the most haunted buildings in the Eastern United States. In the early 20th century, Jefferson County was severely stricken with an outbreak of tuberculosis. The original Waverly Hills building was soon home to over 140 patients. A larger hospital was needed for the overwhelming number of patients coming in, so construction of a five-story building that could hold more than 400 patients began in March 1924. The most common experience of visitors seems to be "moving shadows" or "shadow people". These are shadows that appear to have some substance - able to "

Welcome Back Everyone! Today we will be exploring the wondrous Town of Halloween. Halloween Town is my children's favourite Halloween Movie.  I thought it might be fun to put a little spin on this make-believe town. During the day Halloween Town looks like a lovely place to visit and play.  But!  At Night it turns into a spooky and scary place.  We are going to do like most Ghost Hunters and explore this town.  Let's see what do we need....   OK Everyone grab a piece of equipment and let's start exploring! To the right we have a graveyard, who wants to explore there?  Be sure to bring your camera and recorder to try and catch some EVPs.  You never know what ghostly voices might come about.  Down the road a little i another Haunted house, be sure to stay away from the windows, they are seriously creepy. Don't worry Ladies!  We have some wonderful men in Uniform or Halloween Costumes who will stick around to protect us!     Be careful!  You never
