Castro's victims resilient after torment
They were living in hell, and Ariel Castro did all he could to make sure they'd never escape.
He tied and chained them up, removed handles from doors and replaced them with padlocks. He rigged entrances to the house with makeshift alarms, threatened them with a gun and fed them only once a day.
He covered windows to keep them out of view and sunlight out of their rooms.
But Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus focused on the light at the end of the long, dark tunnel.
They nurtured the faith that they would one day be free. They clung to each other. They persevered and emerged from years of hell to find new life.

And then they let him ramble on in court.
Are you completely uncompassionate? Where is your humanity? Ariel is a victim of an addiction caused by society, a society filled with imagery that drove him to this. He should receive help, not incarceration, some intensive therapy for his addiction. He would be alright in a few months and we could move past this without the expense of incarceration.
Nah. A bullet to the head would be less trouble.
Matter of fact, bullets to the heads of most of the prison populace.
Lucinda, your stance is devoid of any value. Your compassion for his actual victims is underwhelming.
Yea no kidding! They need to muzzle him and while they're at it put an electric shock collar on him and everytime he makes eye contact with anyone zap him!
And give the remote to Berry, Dejesus and Knight? No they seem too nice.
I would never have thought the human organism could stand so much pain.
Life + a 1000 yrs.!! Maybe the prison population will make him suffer? Sure hope so.
Lol @ ronvan, welcome back. And you know they will. He will be punked out in no time!
But he said it was consensual "sometimes". How sick is that? Jeesh. Pathetic.
Truing to salve his conscience, what's left of it, anyway.
These women are the epitome of grace and resilience. They are incredibly strong and seem to be recovering well.
Good luck to them in the future; I hope their lives are wonderful.
Indeed @banasy.
Anything between you and I would be a figment of your imagination.
CNN always finds new hook ups for everyone. This time its Ariel Castro and Michelle Hammon-Garcia. They have a lot in common.Don't you think?
I'll be playing him in the movie.
Your opinion of women is appalling.
A rupert & Lucinda, y'all are made for eachother!!
Puleeezz! Not me @ 6:47 yesterday!
