Ariel Castro wants to show a Different Side of him ?

tomorrow i believe CAstro is supposed to plead guilty and be sentenced to life in prison. they say he plans to speak at length and to show there is a different side to him than what we hear in the media .

like who the fuck cares ? even if he saved lives it doesn't change what a disgusting piece of shit he is.

Michelle Knight is supposed to make a statement during the hearing also.


<The Ohio man who imprisoned three women in his Cleveland home for a decade will speak at length during his sentencing Thursday, delivering a statement that his sister promises will allow people to see "the other side of Ariel Castro."

He'll give a rather lengthy statement, explaining his life and who he really is, his sister, Marisol Alicea, told CNN on Wednesday night.

&quot People will) see the other side of Ariel Castro ... not the monster that everyone thinks he is," she said, adding that she was in no way defending her brother.

In the evaluation, Ochberg wrote that Knight -- who was kidnapped first -- suffered "the longest and most severely."

"But it was Michelle who served as doctor, nurse, midwife and pediatrician during the birth (of Berry's child). She breathed life into that infant when she wasn't breathing," he wrote.

"At other times, she interceded when Castro sought to abuse Gina, interposing herself and absorbing physical and sexual trauma. But each survivor had a will to prevail and used that will to live through the ordeal.">
