Ariel Castro, a true monster, held Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry, and Gina DeJesus captive in his Cleveland home for ten years. We begin telling this story with some background on the Monster himself... and we promise, we won't focus on him any more after this. We also begin to tell the story of the first victim, Michelle Knight.
