Dugard wants nothing to do with biological father

Jaycee Dugard and her family are not interested in attempts by Dugard’s biological father to establish paternity, according to a family spokeswoman.
Dugard’s biological father, Kenneth Slayton, initially expressed his desire to reunite with Dugard shortly after she resurfaced last fall following 18 years in captivity.

A statement released today by Dugard spokeswoman Nancy Seltzer asserts that Slayton showed no investment in his daughter’s life until her ordeal drew international attention.
When Dugard’s mother, Terry Probyn, told Slayton she was pregnant, he showed no interest, according to the statement. It further says that Slayton had similar reaction upon learning of her kidnapping and during interviews with federal and local law enforcement officials.
