Between the Jul 23 - Aug 23, 2009, the temperature in Antioch was reaching 102 deg Fahrenheit. Alyssa and Phil Garrido were spending the whole night in the air-conditioned shed. It was a much more comfortable place to have sex.

The department lost the GPS signal from Garrido’s ankle monitoring device almost every night for prolonged periods of time, typically nine or more hours.


It was Sunday, 23 August 2009 which was the last night they had sex prior to the capture of Phil Garrido. Alyssa's menstrual period was arriving. Phil Garrido would leave her alone during her menstrual period. Phil Garrido would not have sexual intercourse with her when she was having her menses. It was just too bloody and messy for him.

The next day, Phil Garrido will go the University of California, Berkeley on his God's Desire mission. He had already discussed bringing the 2 girls with him on his trip. He loves to take them on his trips to get them out of the backyard. Alyssa will have to stay behind to look after the business of Print for Less.
