BREAKING: Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight are ALIVE; Man arrested

Watching these girls return home today I was overcome by my own emotions. 

As a parent I can't imagine the horror of waking up everyday not knowing if your child is dead or alive.

Those three girls, now women, are a testament to all that humans can endure. I salute their courage and their will to survive.

 In a world gone to hell I'm glad we got to see some good news for once. 

Being from Cleveland and having seen their parents on the news year after year, holding out hope, pleading for the public's help, I'm so glad this had a happy ending.

Welcome home ladies!

Calling sexual kinks myths just totally destroyed your credibility, and your vitriolic attitude doesn't help at all. Every type of sexual pleasure has it's uber-freaks, and the mental states of some can venture to the point of sadistic or psychopathic. That is not to say what gets one off is the cause of the extremes, nor is it the manifestation of sickness in every participant. I know people very in to BDSM. Either gender is the submissive, just as either is the dominant. None of them are weak little wiminz catering to teh menz, it's a level of excitement based off carefully constructed levels of control for them. They get off on being the dominant one week, and the submissive the next. Calling the women who find an extreme amount of pleasure in BDSM "patriarchal stupid women" and "bimbos" is not only patently false, but it's also highly insulting. Not everyone is a Puritan in the bedroom, others like different things for pleasure. It's not up to you to decide what consenting ADULTS enjoy for their thrills. If you don't like it, by all means, don't do it. But so long as it's legal, and the participants are consenting adults, just shut up. BDSM and other kinks aren't my thing at all, but I'm not going to berate my BDSM friends about it. Shame on you, you're not feminist, you're just banging a drum to be focused on, and it's not even meaningful noise from you. Fact of the matter is, you're latching on to a sexual kink branch, and using it as a way to justify lashing out as a sexuality bigot. Consensual BDSM as a culture, & sexual slavery - - which encompasses ALL ages, creeds, cultures, and both genders - - aren't remotely the same thing. Kind of like how a real feminist, and someone as unapologetically disrespectful as yourself, are not the same thing.

Just watched the news conference. I am in utter shock/disbelief that only Ariel is being charged in this. On top of that I didn't hear any questions from the media about that either. What the heck?

They say his brothers didn't know what was going on? Really? I find that a little difficult to believe, but they may have been just as in the dark about it as everyone else was.

I'm not too clear on why the other brothers were taken in in the first place. Does anyone recall why?

I'm shocked too about the two brothers. They didn't say there wasn't enough evidence, they basically cleared them. If they are innocent, how horrible this must be from them.

As for the lack of counts, you would think there would be physical assault charges, child abuse and murder for the miscarriages. It's very difficult to add on charges.

In watching the news tonight, I'm wondering why they roped off the yellow house next door and spent all day with a large forensic team there. In leaving the neighboring house late in the day...the team took a lot of items with them.

Did the brother also rent the house next door? Was there an underground tunnel between the 2 homes. I can't wrap my mind around this new addition to the investigation....

Love how the police, after entering the house one of the women escaped from, reports "we found them".

Yeah, 10 years and you, the police, didn't actually find them. You didn't even want to believe the 911 call and some of tips. Thank goodness an average citizen was willing to help.

I agree with you on that one. I find it very hard to believe, that for 10 years, the 2 brothers did not know what all was going on inside of that house. Are we expected to believe that they did not hear anything going on, even raising up any concern for the noise that may have been coming from the persons room?

While it is plausible that such may have occured, but in all likelyhood, it is improbable, unless the 2 other brothers are hard of hearing. After all from what I can understand, and have seen, babies are not quiet, did they not think it was strang that the middle brother suddenly had an infant there in the house, that would cry, or that when he went shopping that there was any indication of such?

Something does not add up, and ultimately, I suspect that he is taking the fall for the other 2.

You want a conspiracy twist on this one in a great while actual good news story...
Chew on this, These girls were found yesterday, the story is front page nationwide all while a lil hearing is starting today into Bengazi...coincedence or convienience, Also Mr Obumma made a special trip for Travonn Martin, Why No word from him regarding these three girls?

Otherwise That Neighbor is a hero and a true American

i find alot of it fishy, we should do some research, like who cries at the door let me out and doesn't throw the #($&&# table threw the window

Sorry if already posted...
But it will be interesting to see if they test for DNA results regarding the children.
We will then know who the responsible parties are which may or may not
include all 3 brothers or maybe even outsiders. It's all too crazy at the moment.

Cheers

Des, they are also searching a house 3 doors down from his. This whole thing will get a lot weirder before all is said and done.

It isn't the best neighborhood, quite a few vacant houses in the area is why. As to the brothers, if they aren't being charged in this at all they likely didn't know anything about what was going on. Or at the very least didn't give the police any reason to think they did. Cleveland prosecutors are the kind that charge you with everything they think they can no matter how remote the chance you will be found guilty.

This may be a little off-topic and I would like to express my relief that these women made it alive!

But... WOW!!

VERRRY goood post indeed! I didn't expect the likes around here - if you know WHAT I mean.
You tried not even to be political correct in any way if I got you right - what I appreciate very much.

I applaud you for that friend!

They were in the car with him when he was arrested. And are now being charged on unrelated charges,
