alive if Officer Conrad hadn’t intervened.
“He wouldn’t have had any other choice but to get rid of her,” he said. “The guy’s not stupid. He’s not going to turn his victim loose and have her go right to the police, which is what she would have done. She’s a pretty strong girl. He picked the wrong victim.”

SATYRIASIS
At 11:30 A.M . on Wednesday, December 1, a Washoe County grand jury was convened at the Reno Courthouse to decide if twenty-six-year-old Phillip Garrido should stand trial in Nevada. The first witness was Katie Callaway, who entered the grand jury room and was sworn in.
For the next several hours, Washoe County deputy district attorney Michael Malloy gently led Callaway through the horrific sequence of events that had brought her to Phillip Garrido’s mini-warehouse in Reno. And throughout her often harrowing testimony she remained composed, vividly describing what Garrido had subjected her to.
“Do you want to take a minute to relax?” Malloy asked, before asking what had happened in Garrido’s warehouse.
“He undressed,” she testified, “and started to have sexual intercourse with me.”
“Did he penetrate you?” asked the deputy DA.
“Yes, he did,” she answered.
“Were you going along with this only because you were terrified?”
“Yes, I was lying there very still. I was tolerating it.”
“It was against your will?”
“Oh, yes.”
“How many times did he have sexual intercourse with you?”
“Oh, about ten.”
“That many times?”
“Twelve, yes. Just continuous. I couldn’t believe it.”
“Okay,” continued Malloy, “and then what other sexual acts did he perform?”
“He entered me from the back.”
“Anally?”
“Anally and in the normal fashion.”
“Was all this against your will?”
“Yes,” she sobbed. “All the sexual acts were against my will, and he was just very rough and very forceful. And then he got out a vibrator and made me sit on the speaker while he just really hurt me with his vibrator, my vagina.”
“How long were you in there?”
“Approximately five and a half to six hours.”
Then she described running out of the warehouse naked to escape, while Garrido was talking to Officer Conrad.
“I fought my way through a couple of walls of carpet,” she told the grand jurors, “and peeked my head around the corner. I saw an officer and I started yelling, ‘Help me!” Help me!’ and he stood there with no reaction, and so did the abductor. And so I ran out there completely naked, and then they just stood there . . . and I thought, ‘My God, he is not going to help me.’ ”
Callaway testified how Garrido had first claimed she was his girlfriend, and they were having a good time. And her terror after Officer Conrad had ordered her back into the warehouse to dress, before allowing Garrido back inside alone.
“He let the abductor go back in with me,” she said. “And I was scared that he was going to take me hostage.”
She described how Garrido had then “pitifully begged” her not to turn him in, before she ran out again half-naked.
“I think [the policeman] really realized I was terrified when every time he took a step sideways, I was right beside him taking one step with him.”
Then Officer Conrad had told her to sit in his patrol car, until more officers arrived.
“They asked me if I wanted to press charges,” she said. “And I said ‘Yes.’ ”
After Malloy finished his questions, a grand juror asked if she could recognize marijuana by looking at it.
“Yes,” she replied. “It was in a plastic baggie, and he rolled joints out of it.”
Then Katie Callaway was excused and Reno Police Department detective Dan DeMaranville entered the Grand Jury room to testify.
The detective told the grand jury about his search of Phillip Garrido’s warehouse.
“I found the handcuffs,” he testified. “A piece of [silver] tape . . . and some small baggies containing a substance believed
