7:07 am
long that we'd find her alive. i mean this is definitely a one-of-a-kind situation. and then she's healthy and, you know, just unbelievable. >> what was the reunion like between jaycee and her mother, your o ex-wife? >> well, i wasn't there, but i think they're pretty happy. you know, there's six of them all together, the two girls and jaycee, my wife, my daughter, and the sister-in-law. >> have you spoken to your ex-wife since her reunion? >> i have. >> and did -- >> she called last night. >> did anything surprise her about the way that jaycee looked or her behavior from seeing jaycee after so long? >> yes. she said jaycee looks like -- almost like when she was kidnapped. she looks very young, she looks very healthy. she told me that jaycee feels really guilty for bonding with this guy. she has a real guilt trip. >> hmm. what has disturbed you the most about what you have learned
7:08 am
about her time in captivity? >> the way she was kept. the way she was kept in the backyard. i was hoping for a better scenario where maybe a couple took her because they couldn't have their own children or something, that she was, you know, had been in school, she had been raised by a couple. i wasn't expecting this ending, you know, being with this sex offender. >> have you heard if she ever thought about leaving and why she didn't? >> no. i've had no contact as far as that part of it. >> what do you fear most? >> jaycee is a very mellow girl. >> i'm sorry. what do you fear most now that she is back? >> i don't fear anything. i'm just anxious to see how we progrus with this. you know, the girls haven't been in school. they've never been to a doctor, a dentist. it's like -- it's just unreal, you know. >> will you embrace those two
7:09 am
girls with her captor as part of your family? >> you bet. >> do you hold any resentment toward investigators in this case who for years focussed the spotlight on you? >> not really. they're just doing their job. i mean what are you going to do. i mean you just have to deal with it. >> are you satisfied -- >> i'm glad they were doing their job. i am. i mean i'm surprised that i -- like i told them, it was a man and a woman. it was a man and a woman. i said it was an '85 ford monarch, gray four-door, and it turns out they had the car in the backyard. i'm surprised i got it right. i was curious for years, like how o close was i, did i help e the case, you know, did i get the car right. and it turned out i got everything right. it's kind of a surprise. >> does part of you feel vindicated this morning? >> a little bit. i really wasn't worried about that part. i knew i was innocent. i was fighting to get her back.
7:10 am
it wasn't a priority what people thought, if i was guilty or not guilty. i had to make a living, work, go on with my life. i really wasn't worried about other people. i knew fbi would put me through the wringer, and that was okay. >> but it did end your marriage, didn't it? >> not so much the stress to me, but the stress on her losing jaycee ended the marriage. you know, it wasn't between us. we never had a fight. we never had no problems. we're the best of friends right now. just losing jaycee, it changed her life. jaycee and terri were like twins. they were joined at the hip. when she lost jaycee, it just destroyed her. people can't believe how it destroys your life having somebody disappear and not knowing where they're at, whether they're alive, you know, what the situation is. it's just terrible. >> you're right. can't even imagine. what do you want for the two suspects, carl? >> i haven't thought much about it. naturally i want them to pay the
7:11 am
total price. i want the woman to, you know, not do a plea bargain. i guess they basically have confessed to this, so there's not going to be a long trial. actually i got everything, you know. it's like i'm getting answers to my questions, got them back, they're healthy, and these people are captured. they've confessed. as long as it tooks, 18 years to solve this, it all ended real quickly, and everything is done. >> thank goodness it ended the way it did. carl probyn, thank you so much. >> you're quite welcome. >> now here's chris. thank you. jim watson was a sergeant with the el dora doe sheriff's department at the time of the investigation. he was the lead investigator. worked on case for 14 years until his retirement. good morning. how are you? >> good morning. i'm fine. >> your first reaction when you found that jaycee was found and was found alive. >> kind of a numb feeling and
7:12 am
elation that i could finally say the case was closed. >> you worked on and off the case for 14 years. what did you find was the most frustrating aspect of this case? >> the ups and downs from the very first day we followed leads, we investigated suspects. several times we thought we had the suspects identified only to later find that they weren't, in fact, who we needed to find, and so there was emotional ups and downs that accompany that, along with the grief that the family was feeling. and i think that, you know, south lake tahoe is a small town. my wife worked at the school jaycee attended. my children went to school there. they had since gone on to middle school and high school, but there was that small town community relationship, and so
7:13 am
something like the kidnapping of jaycee affected everyone in the town. >> what would you like to see happen to the couple now that they've confessed? >> you know, i just have to let that go. i don't know what's going to come of this case. i know that there's going to be numerous agencies that are going to be looking at these people in addition to the investigators from el dorado county. there's still a lot of work to be done to put this case together. and i just am glad that there is some resolution to the case. >> well, sergeant, we know a lot of these cases end in bad news. we're happy that this one for the team being has ended in good news. sergeant watson, appreciate the time. thank you for joining us. >> you're welcome. >> ahead, we'll ask the question why do these children who have access to the outside world not run, not call for help. we're going to be speaking with

well, good morning and welcome back to "the early show" here on cbs. the crowd out there is alive and well. ominous skies here in manhattan this morning brks u they're braving the elements, magdi. it's friday morning and they're happy to be on television, we're happy to be with them. >> start of the weekend. how bad can that be. coming up we'll have the story of the kidnapping and the return of jaycee lee dugard who was missing for 18 years. and we'll talk with a whom who is lucky to be alive after
7:31 am
battling the h1n1 virus and we'll have news to protect you and your family. first, jaycee legard was held hostage for 18 year. she was kidnapped as a fif igaluit grader and turned up at 28. it may seem surprising that she never escaped but actually her case is not unique. >> have you seen jaycee lee dugard? jaycee is 11 years old. >> reporter: jaycee joins a short list of children held captive for months if not years who never called for help and never escaped. >> there are many opportunities for some of these hostages to run, and yet you have to wonder why is it that they stay in the situation that they're in. >> reporter: in 2002 elizabeth smart was an ducted from her salt lake city bedroom and held captive for nine months. >> stockholm syndrome is a very
7:32 am
interesting phenomenon in which the person who is abducted or taken hostage over time becomes very friendly, develops an emotional bond with their captor. >> reporter: 11-year-old shaun hornbeck was held 4 1/2 years, and even though shaun was allowed to leave his captors' home and even make friends, he never ran. >> thruere was aunt day i didn' think he was going to kill me. >> reporter: why didn't they run? >> it's a way to deal with the stress of having your life at risk. this person becomes emotionally bonded to their abductor and develops a long relationship, and once they are freed, it becomes a long process of healing. >> this horrific story brings to mind the 2002 an dukds of elizabeth smart who returned home to her family after nine months. elizabeth's father ed smart joining us from salt lake city. good morning, mr. smart. >> good morning. >> were you surprised to hear that a girl who had access to phones and the outside world
7:33 am
remained captive for 18 years? >> no, not at all. i don't agree with your fellow there on stoke home syndrome because i think that in many cases, these children do try to escape, and after numerous attempts they feel it's hopeless, and so they try to survive. and that's not necessarily bonding with these monsters. i know elizabeth did not bond with them. and i resent very much people talking about her moving over, the point being they're liz beth wrote in this diary and said that she did not like them, that she was not attached to them, and that she loved her family. so i resent very much that people say it's the stockholm syndrome. it is a matter of survival.
7:34 am
when you've been abducted, you know what they're capable of doing. you know, when you're assaulted, when you're molested, there is, you know, no question that this person is capable of doing many things. that does not mean that they will connect with this person and bond with them. >> but if i may just say that her stepfather told me this morning that jaycee feels incredibly guilty because she did bond with her captor, i'm wondering if that's perhaps because she had two children with him. >> you know, i'm sure that she cared very much. to me that even complicates it more because certainly she had concern for her children. heaven only knows what they all went through. i still don't agree that, you know, the stockholm syndrome answers that question. >> would elizabeth be willing to -- would she like to meet with jaycee? >> you know, i'm sure she would be happy to talk with her about
7:35 am
moving forward with her life, that, you know, this is -- this is a segment, you know, that she needs to somehow work out and put behind her, that she has a wonderful life ahead of her. >> can this girl go back to being a normal human being, or is there always a part, in your experience, that's just not ever the same? >> you know, i think that, you know, things can never be the way they used to be, but there can be a new normal for them. the thing is finding out what that new normal can be and being able to move ahead with your life. >> yeah. we hope that she can, the way elizabeth can. thank you so much, ed smart. >> thank you. >> unbelievable. >> no one better versed than the smart family. >> exactly right. >> they would probably be able to provide good counsel for jaycee. >> and a lot of hope. let's check in with dave. good morning. good morning, folks. let's see what's happening.
7:36 am
as far as a sloppy weekend goes, there are a couple of players in this picture. first of all, we talked about the plains in the midwest getting rain. all of that has moved to the northeast. today, detroit to buffalo, you're going to get a half an inch to an inch and a half. this is going to move eastward and a lot of folks are going to say, ooh, look at this rain from danny. this is separate and apart from it as very the severe thunderstorms in the southeast. danny, weakening. now it's going to buzz along the coast closer but it's not going to do much other than bring a little bit more rain, significant winds, right along the coastline. beach erosion and dangerous surf. now, that's certainly it could have been. is not what in the meantime out west look at the heat in the southwest. the temperatures inland along the west coast still very, very warm. that's a major concern for those wildfires burning out of control this morning. and in the northwest, we're looking at cooling temperatures
7:37 am
finally right along the coastline where it was warm the other day. boise still very, very warm we'll discuss danny in a second. showing you first-warning doppler. we have had strong thunderstorms through the region and we do have thunderstorms breaking out and it all has to do with a stalled front. national hurricane center is not bringing winds inland even a mile. danny has winds of 40 that's a quick look at our weather picture. and, again, still battling the wildfires out in palos verdes. a main concern today through the day. >> no relief, huh? >> clouds may roll in and a little moisture for the weekend but still, we've got a tough 24 to 48 hours ahead here. >> thank you. coming up, a close call with tragedy and a remarkable
7:38 am
recovery. one woman's battle with the h1n1 virus. this is "the early show" here on cbs. ...and i smoked for 29 years. the one thing about smoking - is it dominates your life, and it dominated mine. and the sad thing about it is that you can always use an excuse if cigarettes don't kill me, oh well - something else will. but, you can't use that as an excuse. i honestly loved smoking, and i honestly didn't think i would ever quit. it was very interesting that you could smoke on the first week. chantix gave me that extra help that i needed to get through a tough time. (announcer) chantix is a non-nicotine pill. in studies, 44% of chantix users were quit during weeks 9 to 12 of treatment, compared to 18% on sugar pill. it is proven to reduce the urge to smoke. i did have an unopen pack of cigarettes in my purse and then i think i opened my purse and realized it was still there.
7:39 am
and i said, "what the heck, i don't need these..." ...i said, you know, "bye, i don't need you anymore, you're not my crutch, i don't need a crutch." (announcer) talk to your doctor about chantix and a support plan that's right for you. some people have had changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice agitation, hostility, depression or changes in behavior, thinking or mood that are not typical for you, or if you develop suicidal thoughts or actions, stop taking chantix and call your doctor right away. talk to your doctor about any history of depression or other mental health problems, which can get worse while taking chantix. some people can have allergic or serious skin reactions to chantix, some of which can be life threatening. if you notice swelling of face, mouth, throat or a rash stop taking chantix and see your doctor right away. tell your doctor which medicines you are taking as they may work differently when you quit smoking. chantix dosing may be different if you have kidney problems. the most common side effect is nausea. patients also reported trouble sleeping and vivid, unusual or strange dreams.
7:40 am
until you know how chantix may affect you, use caution when driving or operating machinery. chantix should not be taken with other quit smoking products. as a non-smoker it's wonderful. the best thing that ever happened. the best thing i have ever done besides my husband, and dogs, and family. with the chantix and with the support system, it worked. it worked for me. (announcer) talk to your doctor to find out if prescription chantix is right for you. the amazing story now of a
