The working class community on the west side of Cleveland, Ohio were shocked when two teenage girls went missing almost exactly one year apart. Little did they know another young woman had been taken before that as well. All three victims had one thing in common. They knew who the perpetrator was.
Ariel Castro was fairly well known on the west side. Many people thought they knew the Little Puerto Rico neighborhood resident, but on May 6, 2013 they found out the horrific truth.
Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus had been abducted by Ariel and spent the better part of a decade being tortured. Tune in as Elysia dives into how Ariel lived a double life for so long without getting caught and Savannah talks a lot about pitchforks.
