In 2013, three women were rescued from a house of horrors in Cleveland, Ohio. Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry, and Georgina DeJesus were rescued from a house where they had been held captive for years by a man named Aeriel Castro. Also rescued was a young girl named Jocelyn who turned out to be Amanda Berry's daughter, fathered by Castro during his reign of terror.

Join Mike and Morf for the 200th episode of Criminology as they discuss the infamous case of Ariel Castro. But, this episode is more about the horrors that these three women went through and how they managed to escape and move forward with their lives. Aeriel Castro was a monster who perpetrated unimaginable horrors on Michelle, Amanda, and Gina for many years. After the women were freed, the questions centered on how Castro was able to hide his criminal acts for so many years. Many people, including the police, had been to his house over the years but no one was able to figure out what he was doing.
