Jaycee 'happy' after family reunion

Kidnapped Jaycee Dugard has released her first public statement since resurfacing two months ago in northern California, saying she is happy to be with her family and have their unconditional love and support.

Family spokeswoman Erika Price Schulte said that the 29-year-old released the statement to People magazine along with photos of herself as an adult.

Dugard was 11 when police say she was abducted outside her South Lake Tahoe home in 1991.

Phillip Garrido and his wife, Nancy, have been charged with kidnapping and rape over Dugard's 18-year disappearance.

They have pleaded not guilty.
