$30 Million Bail for Garrido

Bail has been set at $30 million for Phillip Garrido, the man charged with kidnapping Jaycee Lee Dugard and holding her captive in his backyard for 18 years. El Dorado County (California) Superior Court Judge Douglas Phimister approved the amount on Monday on the grounds that Garrido is a danger to the public and a flight risk. Phimister also authorized Garrido to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. His wife, Nancy, however, is still imprisoned on a no-bail hold. Both Nancy and Phillip Garrido face 29 charges of kidnapping and rape. Phillip is believed to be the father of Dugard's 15- and 11-year-old daughters. The couple's next court appearance will be on October 29 for a preliminary hearing.
