Kidnapping victim Michelle Knight told her captor, Ariel Castro, during his sentencing hearing, "You took 11 years of my life away. ... I spent 11 years in hell. Now, your hell is just beginning." Knight, the only one of the three victims to appear at the hearing, said she "will overcome what happened" but Castro "will face hell for eternity." She said, "I will live on. You will die a little every day." Castro pleaded guilty last week to 937 counts, including murder and kidnapping, in a deal that dropped a possible death penalty in exchange for life in prison plus 1,000 years.

Russo, noting that Castro treated his victims as "slaves," said consecutive sentences rendered in his case must be "imposed" to protect the public and "to punish you."

"You don't deserve to be out in our community," he said. "You're too dangerous." ...

He won't last because someone is going to kill him. You watch. Unless he's in solitary confinement.

Describing himself as a "very emotional person," Ariel Castro said during his sentencing hearing that "these people are trying to paint me as a monster and I'm not a monster. I'm sick."
Castro pleaded guilty last week to 937 counts, including murder and kidnapping, for the abduction of Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus.
