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.

how do we really know that though? Surely it isn't normal to be evil?

define normal

What is termed normality is what is acceptable by society as a whole.

Differentiating between 'mad' and 'bad' is one of the problems in mental health. Not everyone who carries out an antisocial act act has a mental illness although someone with a mental illness may carry out an antisocial act as a consequence of their delusional state.

exactly - but defense lawyers worldwide have people believing otherwise.

some people are just evil, not psychotic, sociopath or even slightly mentally ill.

just evil.

Well evil is a human construct and it's not absolute but relative. 

Hitler didn't think he was doing evil. He thought he was doing what's best for society. 

THe God of the Old testament killed almost everyone in the world and advocated genocide, slavery and rape however no CHristian would think that's evil. 

So what's evil really?

LL I would rather he was alive, in a cell where he was isolated from everything, to not see another human being again.... ever.

collectively he deprived 3 young girls of 30 years of any social interaction he repeatedly raped and tortured them and thought that was fair enough. He should have endured what he dished out.

everybody knows what he did, and as you used the Hebrew verse 'eye for eye' i assume you hold a christian viewpoint on these matters

if you cant bear the fact that someone you dont know suicided rather than sit there until the same thing occurred anyway perhaps you could trust god to sort him out. unless you have doubts of course..  what if he did actually get away.. escape.. is that it ?

there's precious little anybody can do about that

Let's twist the Golden Rule around

It should be applicable in both directions

"Do unto me what I have done to others"

So, why did this sicko commit suicide.

He spent over a decade making life hell for "his s*x toys"

NOw he had been without that "pleasure" for months and was now facing the rest of his life NEVER having it again.

He knew his life was over in ANY enjoyable sense.

Good riddance, but pity for the young women who know he got off easy.

I suppose they can take comfort that he'll never cause problems for his little daughter, may she grow up normal and happy from now on.

Yes Annie he got off way too light.
