Finally, good news from Cleveland.

Great news actually. Ariel Castro should be drop kicked into the general population of SOCF in Lucasville.

Well wishes and prayers for these ladies and kudos to the neighbor for heeding the call for help.

Yeah, that's some crazy stuff. Ten years? Really?

Thing is, there is more of that, women being intimidated and beaten into staying with a man, than you may realize. It's sad but true. I once worked with a guy who did that and, towards the end, started bragging about it. She got away from him in a much shorter time than ten years though.

So this guy does all this, was even terminating pregnancies using physical abuse as the means, and there was actually bail set?
Wow.

Yes at $8 million, not that he will be able to raise this money since a public defender was also appointed. But even so, sends a wrong message unless he cannot be denied bail legally .

Article in the WaPo today about sexual harassment in the military. What in hell is wrong with the men here.
