I don’t want to harp on this or anything, but yesterday the head of the California state parole system, Matthew Cates, admitted that “the man accused of kidnapping Jaycee Dugard fell through the cracks.”
Matthew Cates is a pretty insightful guy. How big are those cracks exactly?
According to News 10 in Sacramento:
California Parole Board Commissioner Bilenda Harris-Ritter cites parole officers' failures to check the backyard, where there were tented areas, with electrical cords connected from the house, where Dugard was living with her two daughters fathered by Garrido.
She says the most egregious failure may have been by a parole officer who documented that a 12-year old girl was living in the Garrido home, but who did nothing about it, even though the terms of Garrdio's parole forbid him from having such contact with young girls.
Garrido had been classified as a "low-risk" sex offender, even though he had a history of kidnapping and violent rape in Nevada from years before.

Ah, ok, so...really fucking big.
--Hi, I’m here to check in following your release from prison for dealing cocaine. What’s all this white stuff in these conveniently packaged rectangular blocks?
--Oh, I sell powdered sugar by the kilo now. For baking. People love cupcakes.
--Well that makes sense. Cupcakes are delicious. Carry on.
