CLEVELAND kidnapper Ariel Castro has been found hanging dead in his state prison cell.
Ohio Rehabilitation and Correction officials said convicted kidnapper Castro was found in his prison cell at the Correctional Reception Centre in Orient, Ohio at about 9:20pm local time.
Prison medical staff performed CPR, and Castro was transported to the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Centre. He was pronounced dead at 10:52pm.
Castro was sentenced to life in prison for holding three women - Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michele Knight - in Cleveland for more than a decade and repeatedly raping them.

I am sure his victims will feel relief and sleep much better knowing he can do it to them or anyone else ever again.

"Prison medical staff performed CPR"
I wonder if they were in the room or did it by radar...

What a coward !! He took the easy way out.
He should have been locked in a box and fed through a hole in the wall until he died.
Never to see another human being for the rest of his life

Donna, it would have been justice and a deterrent to others.
Even the bible preaches "an eye for an eye....."
Question, what if it had been your daughter that he kidnapped and raped?
Would you still think my punishment towards him was harsh and evil?

an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind...............
He is dead. It makes no difference what we think..... the girls he damaged will be the ones to determine if it is a good or bad thing.

Az. do you think that society as a whole should not make judgements in such evil deeds?
if you had have been one of the victims would you not expect society to view those deeds as unacceptable?

By simply saying that he was sick, do you think that absolves him from the evil deeds and excuses his behaviour?
If we apply that philosophy to other infringements of the law and acceptable societal behaviour (and I am afraid that that is the path that society is heading down) the fabric of society will be rent asunder. The signs are already there and it is just a matter of time when the will be no criminality jut a world full of "sick" people
