Jaycee Dugard, the California woman kidnapped in 1991 and held captive for nearly two decades, talked through tears about both the pain and determination she felt as she gave birth to her captor’s child in his backyard while she was still a girl.
Dugard was clear and composed throughout the interview with ABC News’s Diane Sawyer on her show Primetime, which aired on Sunday night, but grew emotional when she talked about seeing the first of two girls fathered by Phillip Garrido.
