Did Google Street View photograph rapist Garrido?

[charlie]

The street view of Garrido's house captured a beat up van parked alongside. If you scroll through the views headed south, the van pulls out and follows, coming close as you turn right at the first intersection. Garrido may have been following the Google camera van.

Also, if you haven't already seen this, Google satellite view photographed the tents and sheds in Garrido's back yard.

3. it looks like his neighbors also had multiple sheds, etc. in back yards.

all look pretty junky.

& what's that big expanse of brown across the street & right - crop field or what?

edit: i guess it's a vinyard. looks like a little housing development in the middle of farmland. not upscale.
