In this episode, Amanda and Kristen will be discussing the long and horrific story of sexual sadist and abductor, Ariel Castro. We discuss Ariel’s childhood and early life, how he became the demented person he was, and what led him to living a double life, full of sick and sinister secrets.
The three victims in this story are 21 year old Michelle Knight, 16 year old Amanda Berry, and 14 year old Gina Dejesus. We cover their lives and disappearances in detail, the living conditions of Ariel’s disgusting home, and the unspeakable things the girls were made to do.
This is the first story of our podcast with a happy ending. After 11 years held captive, all three girls finally escape, along with Amanda’s 6 year old daughter, Jocelyn, who she birthed during her captivity. The media exploded with coverage over this insane outcome, the community and the families of the girls were in utter disbelieve, and the verdict that Ariel Castro was slammed with was nothing short of cathartic.
We share where the girls are today, and what ultimately became of Ariel Castro. The episode caps off with the Charles Ramsey interview in song version, “Dead Giveaway” by the Gregory Brothers for your enjoyment.
